You cannot pick up a book or participate in a training program today without the author or instructor teaching the power of goal setting. Yet, most people today spend more time planning a two-week vacation than planning their lives by setting goals. It’s been said that achieving goals
is not a problem–it’s SETTING goals that is the problem. People just don’t do it. They leave their lives to chance…and usually end up broke by the time they reach retirement.

I thought that since this is such an important ingredient for developing a successful network marketing business, this was a good time to share with you some of the greatest thoughts about goal setting that I’ve discovered over the years.

Hi Everyone:
Thought you might get a kick out of something a little different. My girlfriend has been professionally sewing for years as a leather designer and doing boat canvas and upholstery. She decided to take it up again in a home business and Craigslist just wasn't bring in the business. I had purchased a box of yellow bandit signs for REI, so I decided we'd try hand written, black Sharpie for the ad and guess what? The phone started ringing! She had to pull them in because of the volume! They'll be back out this spring!
Guys...Dean knows his stuff! They work and not just for RE!

Best of luck to all on here!

Sometime back, Seth Godin wrote a thought provoking post on goals. He mentioned that it's really easy to not have goals and live in the present. But that is what most of us do. And those who walk that extra mile, deliver, and make an impact are the people who have goals. They set goals and don't lose sight of it till they have achieved them.

I wish we all could be like them. How many of you have kept up with your new year resolutions? It has been only few days since you made those promises to yourself. But I can bet that most of you have already given up. And that's the thing about goals. Setting them is easy. Losing sight of them...easier.

I created a vision statement when I started my real estate business,and I had it laminated and attached to my car's glove box. I have read it every single working morning . It's my ace in the hole, and it's anchored me through challenging times. It start out, "It is my mission to be one of the most successful and well-respected businesswomen. And to be the best person that I can possibly be to those I care about most, including myself"

'Make each day your masterpiece.' he was disciplined, he prioritized well, he focused well, and he found his strength zone and stayed there. South African leader Nelson Mandela. " He is just a phenomenal example of growing, especially when he was in prison. When yu think of how people put their life on hold or deteriorate because of prison culture, here's a person who was in there thinking about the future and his potential.These common pitfalls prevent people from reaching their potential.
The Assumption Gap-"I assume that I will automatically grow."

"It is what it is",I hate that expression! And everone seems to use it. Got fired from your job? It is what it is. Lost your savings? It is what it is.Put on 50 pounds?

December has been described as a magical time of year-when beautiful sights, sounds, smells,emotions, and flavors surround us. Perhaps the real magic comes from the fact that, during this special period, many of us tend to think a little less about ourselves and are focused more outward in our thoughts and deeds.
It is a wonderful season when we send messages of gratitude and thanks to friends and family near and far. Thoughtful gifts are prepared for loved ones, neighbors and other acquaintnces. It truly is an exceptional time. May you and your loved ones experience a happy holiday season and prosperous new year.

Those three words describe how I felt the first time I saw Zig Ziglar speak over 40 years ago.

A large part of the reason I ended up in speaking was because of author, salesman, and motivational speaker Zig Ziglar.

A number of years ago, I had the privilege to be interviewed alongside Zig by Bill Glazer.

Zig began by talking about growing up during the depression and how that influenced him. He said that besides his mother being an incredible role model, he noticed something.
