The Cottage Smallholder

Today I came across some notes from the best œsuccess course I ever bought.

It works, believe me. I am now deploying it again for F and myself at the start of 2012. Feel free to fire off questions if you wish.

This my New Year™s Eve present to everybody. Let™s get down to the golden nuggets straight away.

1. Have written goals and memorise them daily until you don™t even need to think about them.
2. A goal is not a goal " it is your personal vow.
3. Goals are absolute decisions, not a wish list
4. Every goal starts with œI.
5. The second word is usually a verb and always in the present tense
6. Goals must always be written down and visualised with emotion at least twice daily.
7. It™s the emotion that delivers the result you want.
8. Each goal must be accurate in minute detail.
9. Warm and sunny is not a goal. Money itself is not a goal. Decide what exactly it is that you want and the money will appear as you need it. Compare it with flying to New York. Money is the flight, not the destination.
10. Do not put dates on goals unless:
    They are emergency goals
    They can have a date because you know exactly what to do
11. Never, ever miss or give up on a goal.
12. You must have at least one psychological goal to build your confidence.

Examples

-          I own a dark blue Land Rover Discovery V8i with alloy wheels, cruise control, ABS brakes and a 5-speed manual gearbox.

-          I own a 5-bed detached executive villa, within five miles of Albufeira, with magnificent sea views.

-          I work 2 or 3 days a week from home with plenty of time for leisure pursuits.

-          I earn over £100,000 per year.

-          I have absolute belief in my ability to succeed. This is made manifest in everything I say and do.
