I have a friend who is very successful in just about everything he does, especially business.
When I ask him about this he tells me that one of his secrets is not a secret at all. Simply choose a few goals and say them everyday.
I'm sure everyone has heard this at one time or another. Simply coming up with a goal and saying it isn't enough. These goals have to be attainable so start small. You must also believe in yourself and have the confidence that you will achieve your goal.

I have long term goals and short term goals. The long term is what I want to achieve over a period of several months and the short term might be what I want to get done today or over the course of a week.

The key here is to act on your goals. They won't get accomplished on their own. This is where the difference between goal setting and goal tending occurs.
Don't be a goal tender...that is a defensive motion and you want to be on the offense and move forward. The goal tenders sit around telling everyone around them what their goals are and why they can't reach them!

When you say these goals, you must have the mindset that you will achieve them. Believe in your ability to attain them and let that emotion come through in your body language and voice as you say them. Say your goals 2 or 3 times a day in the beginning until you truly start to believe. Another great thing to do is to illustrate your goals on a large sheet of poster board. You don't have to be an artist and no one else has to see it .

So, set your goals and say them every day and don't be a goal tender!
