The more exciting your goals and objectives, the more specific, the easier it is to handle the price you pay along the way.
Losers look at what they’re going THROUGH, while Champions look at what they’re going TO.
Part of the reason why people quit so easily is that they don’t believe in their own goals.
Here’s how to get very excited about your goals – it will fuel your enthusiasm and determination and make your journey infinitely easier by getting you to WANT to do what you have to do to get where you want to be.
Make an EMOTIONAL Commitment
Think of a goal. For example, let’s say your goal is to participate in the exciting DollarMakers International Convention in Cancun. Now it can be something that you rationally and intellectually commit to, and you might make a few random, lukewarm efforts to reach that goal.
Alternatively, you can make an emotional commitment, and that’s where you get the rocket fuel. Walt Disney said:
“If your heart is in your dreams, no request is too extreme, for when you wish upon a star, it makes no difference who you are!”
What would happen?
What would happen if you put up posters of Cancun around your home, visit websites about Cancun, ask Lynnette Peter, our DollarMakers Director for Travel and Conventions, about all the fun activities that will be available, discuss it with your family and friends, invite them to join you, visualize yourself riding a white horse on the beach, snorkeling among the multicolored fish, meeting the DollarMakers cream of the crop from all over the world, and having fun in the sun?
- Would you work harder to make it happen?
- Would you go out on a limb to spend time in paradise with the best of the best?
- What would the return on your investment be?
You don’t notice the shadows when you’re looking at the sun. Focus on what you want, not on what you don’t want.
4 Tips to Fuel Your Enthusiasm
- Fill your mind with motivation and inspiration.
- Associate with people who believe in you and in your dreams.
- Work on your own personal development more than anything else.
- Get excited about the details of your goals – the more specific, the more terrific. Smell them, taste them, visualize them, listen to them.
If your goal is a new red Cadillac STS, go and test drive one every single weekend… or at least sit in one. Smell it. Feel it. Imagine yourself driving it. Touch it. Put up pictures of it.
“Whatever the mind of man can believe and conceive, it can achieve”
- Napoleon Hill.
The rocky road will turn into silk and feathers when your objective is sufficiently brilliant and believable. Make it so.
