I strongly believe that having clear and specific goals is the first step on your journey to success. So, let’s start with this first step. What do you want out of life? What is it that you really desire to see happening in your life? Grab a piece of paper and a pen right now. Today, we will take the most important step for your success. We will establish clear goals for your life.

You can set goals for any area of your life: your finance, your career, your education, your relationships, your health, your spirituality and your family. I want to explain to you how to set goals for yourself. And I believe there’s not better way than to give you a personal example. Therefore, I’m going to show you exactly what my goals are for the next year.

 I want to reach all these goals before November 2010:
