Quick Goal Setting Tips

Quick Goal Setting Tips

1. Make goals meaningful.

Goal setting for the sake of goal setting almost always ends in disappointment. Goal setting is simply a tool to use in achieving a favorable outcome -- what some people call a "Dream."

2. Use positive language and the present tense when setting a goal.

It is better to say "I weigh a healthy, trim and fit 185 pounds" than "I want to lose 20 pounds."

3. Always put your goals in writing.

Every expert agrees that setting a goal without putting it in writing drastically reduces your chances of success.

4. Goal setting should take place in every area of your life, including Health, Relationships, Spiritual, Career and Financial.

5. Setting Life Goals will add dimension, excitement and texture to your life.

6. Failure doesn't always mean that you did something wrong in your goal setting or implementation. It may just mean that the time you allotted for success wasn't adequate. A thorough review process should be undertaken before setting the goal again.


Seeing is Believing:

Using Visualization in Goal Setting Human beings are captivated by visual stimulation. The entertainment industry is a multi-billion dollar industry because of it. When we see it, we believe it. If you can see it, it must be possible. Visualization is a powerful tool that can take your goal setting to the next level. When you visualize reaching your goal, you are making it real.

Without a clear picture of the end result, setting goals is just writing down concepts or wishes. If you can see the dream realized, you can see the path that takes you there. This is why movie directors create story boards before they start filming, why architects create models before they start building, and why fashion designers sketch renderings before they cut fabric.

They have to have a vision of what they are creating, otherwise setting goals for box office sales, ribbon cutting, and runway shows would never materialize.

Without a clear idea of the finished product, the movie will not be produced, the building will not be built, and the garment will never be made. It’s hard to believe what we can’t see for ourselves. This is especially important when it comes to goal setting.

The term “visualization” is widely used but often misunderstood. Visualizing in goal setting is not daydreaming or wishing. It is taking a snapshot of you after you have attained your goal, and then focusing on that snapshot.

Great athletes use visualization to improve performance. Actors imagine the scene before they play it. Successful entrepreneurs know exactly where they are going, because they have vision.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jrs’ famous “I have a dream” speech was the telling of his vision for his people, and his country. Without that vision, would he have been able to affect sweeping changes, motivate hundreds of thousands of Americans, and create lasting change? No.

Without his vision, he never would have a chance. A daily visualization will alter the choices you make, and keep you focused on your goals. Visualizations can also be tangible. Put visual reminders of your goal on your bathroom mirror, in your car, on your computer at work, in your wallet.

You might have a picture of your dream home, or a diploma if your goal is graduating from college.

Get as detailed as possible when setting goals through visualization. For example, you could write a short article about your successes, as if you were being interviewed by a famous newspaper or magazine.

Post the article throughout your home, and read it often. You will be amazed at the opportunities that will come your way when you take setting goals and visualization seriously.

In goal setting, setting your intention using visualization works almost like magic. It’s as if you have notified the universe that this goal is yours for the taking. When, in setting goals, you visualize attaining them, you claim your goal in advance. Visualization makes every goal seem possible.

More than that, it makes every goal probable. Go beyond goal setting and see the dream, feel the dream, be the dream.

EWS - Early Warning System

Salam sejahtera !

Dah lama saya tak bawa kereta mercedes saya sejak balik dari perjumpaan Career Opportunity Talk pada 12 dan 13 Dec yang lepas.

Baru hari ini saya bawa kereta tur.... dan terus pergi cuci. Hari ini aku ke stokis membuat pembelian produk untuk bulan Dec untuk rangkaian-rangkain aku yang masih belum aku lakukan. Dalam perjalanan.... tiba-tiba di hadapan screen kereta aku terpapar "Break Lining Pad Wear, Visit the nearest workshop". Ini lah first time aku dapat message dari panel tur tentang break lining pad. Suspen lah jugak.... maklumlah selama aku mengenali dan membawa kereta cuma setahun yang lepas sahaja aku boleh bawa mercedes.... . So aku call mekanik Millenium Merc (pakar merc) dan bertanya tentang nya... .

Dia kata okay lagi - boleh di pandu lagi kereta nya. Itu cuma early warning dari system mercedes aku jer. Maklumlah kereta-kereta biasa tak de benda-benda macam nie. Teringat aku semasa aku kerja sebagai Engineer dahulu di Iomega. Kami ada letakkan andon light yang akan menyala jika ada sistem di dalam production yang di kesan buat hal (buat masaalah lah...). Kami panggil dia pun EWS - Early Warning System. Semasa aku menjadi Failure Analysis Engineer, kami juga mem- implementasikan sistem EWS ini kepada supplier-supplier yang membekalkan raw material kepada syarikat aku bekerja.

Semua sistem-sistem yang aku sebutkan di atas sebenarnya mempunyai tujuan yang sama iaitu untuk MENDAPATKAN MAKLUMAT TERLEBIH AWAL SEBELUM SESUATU YANG LEBIH BURUK AKAN BERLAKU. Bermakna dengan adanya maklumat awal, masalah yang bakal menjelma dapat di bendung dengan merangka strategi dan tindakan yang lebih awal.... . Itulah yang di panggil EWS - EARLY WARNING SYSTEM.... .

Bagaimana ianya mempunyai hubung kait dengan menjalankan perniagaan MLM bersama Smart Succes Team dan Smart Naco ? Banyak.... .hubung kaitnya.

Kekadang kita akan dapat merasakan sesuatu akan terjadi dengan melihat dan menganalisa trend semasa... contohnya downline anda yang aktif tiba-tiba hilang berita darinya. Jika ini berlaku mesti ada sesuatu yang perlu kita lakukan.... . Ataupun downline kita yang pada mulanya begitu bersemangat dengan Smart Naco tetapi kebelakangan ini sering pulak memberikan pandangan yang negatif pula .... mesti ada sesuatu ... Your EWS .

Jika anda dapat mengambil tindakan dan strategi untuk membendung suasana sebegini, rangkaian anda akan tetap utuh dan teguh.... .

Patah tumbuh, hilang berganti. Saya sering memberitahu kepada rangkaian saya .... Jika anda berlari dalam menjalankan bisniss ini, saya juga akan berlari membantu anda, jika anda berjalan dalam bisniss ini, saya juga akan berjalan membantu anda....

Jumpa anda di Puncak Kejayaan..... Jadikan 2007 sebagai tahun di mana azam dan matlamat anda tercapai ....

Buang yang Keruh ambil yang jernih.... .

Ikhlas Tapi Jauh

Ikhlas Tapi Jauh

Bila bila kiranya diriku perlu
Hari yang murung
Terdengar nada yang riang ria
Sekali suara meyakinkan jiwa
Kaku langkah mengaguminya
Kaku menerimanya

Selagi bahuku
Memikul bebannya
Selagi hayatku
Merasa siksa

Selama senyuman
Menjadi senyumku
Ku bawa wajahmu

Walau diriku jauh...
Jauh...

GOAL ! The Dream Begins

Salam sejahtera....

Klik di sini untuk menyaksikan video klip GOAL ! The Dream Begins.

Di sini saya sertakan satu artikel yang di tulis oleh Mike Litman about THE POWER of GIVING.

Let me explain kaz.

When I put my dream into action and started my businessI had practically nothing. No contacts. No email list.
Zilch.

I was doing a radio show (1997) in a studio the size of aphone booth once a week. I had 3 listeners. 2 being my parents.

And I was paying for the airtime (WGBB 1240AM). (This was abig money drainer at the time.)
I desperately wanted to grow. I desperately wanted to make something of myself.

Here's what I did.

Hold on though.

First, if you APPLY this principle, your life will change.

Your finances will change.

"Mike, how do you know for sure?"
Easy, this LAW, this PRINCIPLE always works.
Always.

Ready?

***I gave away what I had, to get what I wanted.

Read that again.

You see, most people focus on the 'get'.
I need to 'get this', 'get that'...no - no - no.
That's the hard way. The slow way.
The way to GET is to FIRST give.
Success is about service.

Whatever you want more of, start to give it away.
You want more time? Volunteer

You want money making ideas? Give them away first.
You want better knowledge? Give away some books.
Want more money? Donate money.

Life is based on LAW. What you sow, you'll reap.
"Mike, why do many people fail?"

Because they hold onto what they have, tightly.

Take a piece of what you've been given. Knowledge, time, money, etc...and give it away.
What you have left will multiply and grow.

I didn't make this up. This goes back thousands of years.
Maybe tens of thousands.

Have a story to tell? Give of yourself the time towrite it, turn it into a book, what happens next?
People pay you to read it.

You must give before you get.
Oprah gives of herself before she gets.

Tiger has planted (given) thousands of HOURS into learninghow to play golf.
What does a farmer do?

He plants a seed and a harvest is created.
Take an inventory of what you have to give away.

What about a smile, insight, time, money.

Stop holding on tight and start opening up andputting yourself in the FLOW of life.
Giving and receiving. It makes the world go round.

Work the principle and reap the results. (or enjoy workinghard)


Your Coach,
Mike

You make a difference

You make a difference!
Author Unknown


A high school teacher decided to honorall of her students by telling them the difference they each made. She called each student to the front of the class, one at a time. First she told each of them how they had made a difference to her and the class.


Then she presented each of them with a blue ribbon imprinted with gold letters, which read, 'Who I Am Makes a Difference.'


Afterwards the teacher decided to do a class project to see what kind of impact recognition would have on a community. She gave each of the students three more ribbons and instructed them to go out and spread this acknowledgment ceremony. Then they were to follow up on the results, see who honored whom and report back to the class in about a week.


One of the boys in the class went to a junior executive in a nearby company and honored him for helping him with his career planning. He gave him a blue ribbon and put it on his shirt.


Then he gave him two extra ribbons and said, 'We're doing a class project on recognition, and we'd like you to go out, find somebody to honor, give them a blue ribbon, then give them the extra blue ribbon so they can acknowledge a third person to keep this acknowledgment ceremony going. Then please report back to me and tell me what happened.'


Later that day the junior executive went in to see his boss, who had been noted, by the way, as being kind of a grouchy fellow. He sat his boss down and he told him that he deeply admired him for being a creative genius.


The boss seemed very surprised. The junior executive asked him if he would accept the gift of the blue ribbon and would he give him permission to put it on him. His surprised boss said, 'Well sure.' The junior executive took the blue ribbon and placed it right on his boss's jacket above his heart. As he gave him the last extra ribbon, he said, 'Would you do me a favor? Would you take this extra ribbon and pass it on by honoring somebody else? The young boy who first gave me the ribbons is doing a project in school and we want to keep this recognition ceremony going and find out how it affects people.'


That night the boss came home to his 14-year old son and sat him down. He said, 'The most incredible thing happened to me today. I was in my office and one of the junior executives came in and told me he admired me and gave me a blue ribbon for being a creative genius. Imagine. He thinks I'm creative genius.'


'Then he put this blue ribbon that says, 'Who I Am Makes A Difference' on my jacket above my heart. He gave me an extra ribbon and asked me to find somebody else to honor. As I was driving home tonight, I started thinking about whom I would honor with this ribbon and thought of you. I want to honor you. My days are really hectic and when I come home I don't pay a lot of attention to you.


Sometimes I scream at you for not getting good enough grades in school and for your bedroom being a mess, but somehow tonight, I just wanted to sit here and, well, just let you know that you do make a difference to me. Besides your mother, you are the most important person in my life. You're a great kid and I love you!'


The startled boy started to sob and sob, and he couldn't stop crying. His whole body shook. He looked up at his father and said through his tears, 'I was planning on committing suicide tomorrow, Dad, because I didn't think you loved me. Now I know you care. This is the happiest day I've known.'


The boss went back to work a changed man. He was no longer a grouch but made sure to let all his employees know that they made a difference.


The junior executive helped several other young people with career planning and never forgot to let them know that they made a difference in his life - one being the boss' son. And the young boy and his classmates learned a valuable lesson.


So who you are DOES make a difference and I wanted you to know that.

A date with Smart Naco - 10hb december

Salam sejahtera,

Pada 10 hb dec yang lepas Smart naco telah mengadakan program 'A date with Smart Naco' di mana pelbagai acara di adakan di perkarangan HQ Smart Naco di Taman Maluri.

Aku and the gang (Azri dan 2 rangkaian baru aku di Ipoh Rosli dan Khairul Shidie) bertolak dari Penang jam 10 malam. Aku and Azri baru saja selesai mengadakan program Smart Start Training di Sg Petani sepanjang hari. Namun komitmen kepada program anjuran syarikat membuatkan kami bersemangat ke sana walaupun keletihan.

Sampai ke Kuala Lumpur dalam jam 2 pagi dan terus ke Taman Melawati di mana kami akan singgah melelapkan mata sekejap. Dalam jam 3 pagi baru tertidur.... alamak jam 5 pagi aku dah terjaga. Bila dah terjaga tak boleh melelapkan mata lah pulak !

Jam 9 pagi pergi sarapan (Orang HQ call tanya bila nak sampai ke HQ....!) dan terus ke Taman Maluri. Sampai dalam jam 9:45 pagi. Masih awal dan tidak ada ramai lagi yang hadir. Leader pertama yang aku nampak hadir sebelum aku ialah Atuk kami semua, Abg Mat Zin (memang dia lah yang selalu awal...walaupun aku di fahamkan ada kenduri anak beliau di Cameron Highlands). Selepas aku sampai, Abg Yusuf dan Kak Hazami pun tiba. Rombongan leader2 dari Indonesia turut sampai.

Ramai juga rangkaian SST yang hadir dari group Azri, Rizal, Che Din, Rozi dan Abg Yusuf/Kak Mie. Dari Kelantan, 1 bas, dari Utara di fahamkan 5 bas, dari JB ada 2 bas.... .

Aku turut bertemu dengan leader dari Singapore yang aku jumpa masa di Singapore dulu iaitu SPD Miss Janice and PD Azahari. Hj Junaidi dari Brunei turut serta sebagai wakil dari Brunei. Orang kuat SST di Singapore, En Norhan juga tiba.

Program di mulakan dengan "National Leadership Seminar" yang di hadiri oleh SPD-SPD di seluruh Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia dan Brunei. Para hadirin yang lain mengikuti seminar ini dari screen besar di perkarangan Parking di bawah.

Selepas upacara ucapan dari Managing Director Smart Naco, dan juga selepas upacara "pecah tanah" bangunan baru Smart Naco .... upacara kemuncak "ANugerah Kad Kelab Smart presiden Direcktor" di adakan. Di antara kriteria nya ialah mencapai status SPD sebanyak 8 bulan dalam masa 12 bulan. Kalau tak silap aku, ada dalam 12-15 orang yang layak termasuk seorang dari Singapore dan seorang dari Indonesia.

Aku juga turut menerima kad kelab Smart Presidential Director yang sah selama 1 tahun..... . Banggalah jugak sebagai seorang yang belum pernah berjaya dalam mana2 MLM tapi di Smart Naco aku mencipta sejarah di antara DISTRBUTOR ELITE di Smart Naco ..... seluruh dunia ! Syukur....

Selesai ucapan dari wakil leaders di setiap negara, upacara pelancaran produk di adakan di bawah. Kami semua turut ke bawah dan aku sempat bertemu dengan rakan2 seperjuangan dalam SST termasuk 5 orang ibu2 yang aku terbangkan KHAS dari Medan untuk ke temu dengan pemimpin-pemimpin Smart Naco di Malaysia..... .

Pelancaran produk di adakan dengan 3 produk baru Smart Naco -

Nacofe (kopi), Masker (super clay) dan Engine Treatment !

Selepas tur barulah boleh berbual dengan team SST yang lain..... Ramai juga ahli-ahli SST yang menang LUCKY DRAW. Kalau tak silap ... yang naik ke pentas ambil hadiah ialah PD Fauzan, PD Rashidi dan Taufek (Ibu Diba dari Medan yang menang) ....

Majlis selesai dalam jam 2:30 petang ..... terus pulang ke Penang sebab pada 12 dec akan turun kembali ke KL ....

Be the BEST in Smart Naco !
