HAPPY NEW YEAR! LINDA PLIAGAS
As you can imagine this broker was very successful. He was a multimillionaire by age 29 with multiple investments around the nation and a thriving agency business.
Now you certainly don ' t have to write a thesis for your goal setting to take root. Simply write down some goals of what it is you wish to accomplish for the upcoming year. Some people make one goal; a typical one is to lose weight ­ everyone seems to have that one on the list! I say why limit yourself to one goal, when the sky is the limit!
This year, I urged everyone around me to write down their goals. I asked my daughter and husband to do it, the friends who are stayed with us during the holidays, and I even reached out to our social media network of nearly 70,000 to remind them to write down their goals for 2017.
As you can see, I ' m feel very strongly about this exercise because I know we ALL desire to be more successful, have better relationships, and be heather and happier people. We all want a better life, and your improved life can begin today if you ' ll just carve out a little time to write down your goals for 2017.
Following are some tips to get you started on your way to an unbelievable year.
1. Figure out what it is you want to accomplish for 2017. Ask yourself why do you want it? Is it for my highest good and for the good of my loved ones?
2. Mix up a few business and personal goals: Remember, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
3. Write your goals on something so that you can review them often. This year, I wrote them down on my phone and backed them up on a notepad.
I normally write down 10 goals and anticipate six or seven of them to materialize by year ' s end. I also like to mix it up and not only focus on business goals, like buying real estate or expanding our media business or clock shop, but also throw in personal ones as well... like being more patient with my family and exercising more religiously.
