How To Write A Successful Business Plan

Whether you are planning to start a brand-new business, expand an existing company, or get financing for a business venture, you will need to write a business plan. A business plan not only lends your business a sense of credibility, but also helps you to cover all your bases, increasing your chances of success.

Although writing a business plan can be a lengthy, intimidating project, it is not necessarily difficult. Here is an overview of how to write a successful business plan.

What to Include in Your Business Plan

Your business plan needs to demonstrate that you have thoroughly considered all aspects of running your business. To that end, the standard business plan has nine major sections, covering everything from your business’s mission statement to a detailed financial analysis.

Executive Summary

The first – and most important – section of your business plan is the executive summary. This section is so important that it should literally be the first thing the reader sees – even before the table of contents! However, it should also be written last, as you’ll have a better understanding of the overall message of your business plan after you’ve researched and written the other sections.

One of the most important parts of the executive summary is the mission statement. The mission statement is only three or four sentences long, but it should pack the most punch out of everything else in your business plan: Those four sentences are responsible for not only defining your business, but also capturing the interest of your reader.

The rest of your executive summary should fill in the important details that the mission statement glosses over. For instance, your executive summary should include a short history of the business, including founder profiles and start date; a current snapshot, listing locations, numbers of employees, and products or services offered; and a summary of future plans and goals.

This section is a candidate for a bulleted format, which allows you to list main points in a manner that is easy to scan. Avoid using too much detail – remember, this section is a summary. A page or two is usually sufficient for an executive summary.

Market Analysis

The next section of your business plan focuses on market analysis. In order to show that your business has a reasonable chance for success, you will need to thoroughly research the industry and the market you intend to sell to. No bank or investor is going to back a doomed venture, so this section is sure to fall under especially close scrutiny if you are looking for financing.

Your market analysis should describe your industry, including the size, growth rate, and trends that could affect the industry. This section should also describe your target market – that is, the type or group of customers that your company intends to serve. The description of your target market should include detail such as:

• Distinguishing characteristics
• The needs your company or product line will meet
• What media and/or marketing methods you’ll use to reach them
• What percentage of your target market you expect to be able to wrest away from your competitors

In addition, your market analysis should include the results of any market tests you have done, and an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of your competitors.

Company Description

After your market analysis, your business plan will need to include a description of your company. This section should describe:

• The nature of your business
• The needs of the market
• How your business will meet these needs
• Your target market, including specific individuals and/or organizations
• The factors that set you apart from your competition and make you likely to succeed

Although some of these things overlap with the previous section, they are still necessary parts of your company description. Each section of your business plan should have the ability to stand on its own if need be. In other words, the company description should thoroughly describe your company, even if certain aspects are covered in other sections.

Organization and Management

Once you have described the nature and purpose of your company, you will need to explain your staff setup. This section should include:

• The division of labor – how company processes are divided among the staff
• The management hierarchy
• Profiles of the company’s owner(s), management personnel, and the Board of Directors
• Employee incentives, such as salary, benefits packages, and bonuses

This goal of this section is to demonstrate not only good organization within the company, but also the ability to create loyalty in your employees. Long-term employees minimize human resource costs and increase a business’s chances for success, so banks and investors will want to see that you have an effective system in place for maintaining your staff.

Marketing and Sales Management

The purpose of the marketing and sales section of your business plan is to outline your strategies for marketing your products or services. This section also plans for company growth by describing how the growth could take place.

The section should describe your company’s:

• Marketing methods
• Distributions methods
• Type of sales force
• Sales activities
• Growth strategies

Product or Services

Following the marketing section of your business plan, you will need a section focusing on the product or services your business offers. This is more than a simple description of your product or services, though. You will also need to include:

• The specific benefits your product or service offers customers
• The specific needs of the market, and how your product will meet them
• The advantages your product has over your competitors
• Any copyright, trade secret, or patent information pertaining to your product
• Where any new products or services are in the research and development process
• Current industry research that you could use in the development of products and services

Funding Request

Only once you have described your business from head to toe are you ready to detail your funding needs. This section should include everything a bank or investor needs in order to understand what type of funding you want:

• How much money you need now
• How much money you think you will need over the next five years
• How the money you borrow will be used
• How long you will need funding
• What type of funding you want (i.e. loans, investors, etc.)
• Any other terms you want the funding arrangement to include

Financials

The financials section in your business plan supports your request for outside funding. This section provides an analysis of your company’s prospective financial success. The section also details your company’s financial track record for the past three to five years, unless you are seeking financing for a startup business.

The financials section should include:

• Company income statements for prior years
• Balance sheets for prior years
• Cash flow statements for prior years
• Forecasted company income statements
• Forecasted balance sheets
• Forecasted cash flow statements
• Projections for the next five years – every month or quarter for the first year, with longer intervals for the remaining years
• Collateral you can use to secure a loan

The financials section is a great place to include visuals such as graphs, particularly if you predict a positive trend in your projected financials. A graph allows the reader to quickly take in this information, and may do a better job of encouraging a bank or investor to finance your business. However, be sure that the amount of financing you are requesting is in keeping with your projected financials – no matter how impressive your projections are, if you are asking for more money than is warranted, no bank or investor will give it to you.

Appendices

The appendix is the final section in your business plan. Essentially, this is where you put all of the information that doesn’t fit in the other eight sections, but that someone – particularly a bank or investor – might need to see.

For instance, the market analysis section of your business plan may list the results of market studies you have done as part of your market research. Rather than listing the details of the studies in that section, where they will appear cumbersome and detract from the flow of your business plan, you can provide this information in an appendix.

Other information that should be relegated to an appendix includes:

• Credit histories for both you and your business
• Letters of reference
• References that have bearing on your company and your product or service, such as magazines or books on the topic
• Company licenses and patents
• Copies of contracts, leases, and other legal documents
• Resumes of your top managers
• Names of business consultants, such as your accountant and attorney

Writing a Successful Business Plan

Despite the quantity of information contained in your business plan, it should be laid out in a format that is easy to read. Just like with any piece of business writing, it is important to craft your business plan with your intended audience in mind – and the bankers, investors, and other busy professionals who will read your business plan almost certainly won’t have time to read a tedious document with long-winded paragraphs and large blocks of text.

Business plans for startup companies and company expansions are typically between twenty to forty pages long, but formatting actually accounts for a lot of this length. A strong business plan uses bullet points throughout to break up long sections and highlight its main points. Visuals such as tables and charts are also used to quickly relay specific information, such as trends in sales and other financial information. These techniques ensure that the reader can skim the business plan quickly and efficiently.

Think of your audience as only having fifteen minutes to spend on each business plan that comes across their desks. In that fifteen minutes, you not only have to relay your most important points, but also convince the reader that your business venture merits a financial investment. Your best bet is a well-researched business plan, with an organized, easy-to-read format and clear, confident prose.

5 Reasons Why People Fail To Become Wealthy

No one wants to be average in life. Most people do however still aspire to the American dream, whatever that means for the individual. Certainly the way we accumulate wealth has change somewhat throughout the years but do we really have any greater understanding of what it takes to become wealthy.

5 Reasons Why People Fail To Become Wealthy

No one wants to be average in life. Most people do however still aspire to the American dream, whatever that means for the individual. Certainly the way we accumulate wealth has change somewhat throughout the years but do we really have any greater understanding of what it takes to become wealthy.

There does appear to be certain indicators that determine why someone becomes financially independent in their lifetime and why another may struggle from paycheck to paycheck.

Here are 5 simple tips to avoid if you want to become wealthy in a lifetime.

1.They set unrealistic targets. Now I know every motivational guru worth their salt will tell you to be optimistic and dream big. But being unrealistic is only going to undermine what you want to achieve in life. Someone who is earning a base salary of $30,000 per annum is hardly going to become a millionaire in 5 years unless they do something drastically different with their paycheck. Now I’m not suggesting to not dream big but if you want to get onto the road to wealth you also need to start notching up victories. It is through little victories at first that give you the motivation and drive to keep you moving forward. So a simple suggestion is to look at where you are at and set a target that you can reach which is a bit of a stretch but one that you absolutely believe is realistic. The chances of you actually hitting the target will increase several folds.

2.Stop moving the target. Once you have set your realistic target above then get yourself into action and start working towards achieving it. Most people don’t ever start on their road to financial independence because their target seems too out of reach but also once they do get started the make it more difficult on themselves by moving the target all the time. Its fine to keep reassessing where you are at and keeping up with changes that are going on around you. But to keep moving the target before actually reaching it only serves to rob you of your much needed victory and the sense of accomplishment that you rightfully deserve for making the sacrifices and putting in the hard work. If you think the target is too easy and want to make it bigger than tell yourself to hit the target faster so that you can then move on to the bigger target. With little victories comes the bigger victories. Have some patience with yourself.

3.Not putting a plan in place. Now that you have a target in mind and you are committed to reaching it you need to organize a plan and put it into effect. Most people fail because they only have a target and have no structured plan in place to help them achieve it. So they go about things in a hit and miss fashion never really getting themselves any closer to achieving their target. The plan is so integral to the overall success of your journey simply because it will give you the necessary steps that will help you achieve your target but also because it will give you indications along your journey when you are going of target and when you are getting behind schedule. They say if you fail to have a plan then you must be planning to fail.

4.They give up at the first sign of a challenge. Most people never stick to a plan long enough to see the results because at the first sign of difficulty they call it quits. How many times have you seen someone who wants to lose weight, sets a target weight loss that is achievable and then puts in plan a diet and exercise plan to achieve. On the surface of it, it would seem that they have all the ingredients there to achieve their target if only they stick to the plan. But what happens when they have a few night outs with friends, or the weather starts to get bad, they start to think the worse and what an uphill battle this is and give up. We don’t get rewarded with good intentions, we get rewarded with results.

So you have to realize that challenges are there to make us stronger and to test our resolve. If you want to achieve your target for wealth you must expect challenges to be thrown at you because if you aren’t facing challenges in life then you aren’t doing anything of significance. I would rather fail and get up then fail and give up.

5.They listen to self proclaimed experts. It’s been said that information and knowledge is the key to success. Certainly when you are embarking on your financial journey good information is of great benefit. But the key is “good information”. The problem with most people is that they listen to the wrong advice instead of making that little bit more of an effort to get the good advice.

They listen to the advice of their neighbour, friends, family and even so call get rich gurus for their financial advice. Some of them may have your best intentions at heart but if they aren’t themselves financially independent how could they possibly help you to achieve your financial targets. And get rich quick gurus pushing that next new fail proof scheme will only bring you to ruins. You need to find a source of credible and accurate advice on how to deal with and manage your growing wealth. So why not do what other financially successful people do and invest in quality advice. Be willing to pay good money for good advice because they would serve your bottom line with greater increase then you might think. Some advisors that you would want on your team would include an accountant, a qualified financial planner and solicitor. They are invaluable advisors to any multinational company and successful individuals so why not you.

The key to becoming wealthy is not as difficult as one might seem. By following these handy hints you are already well on your way to achieving your financial goals. Why not get started to day.

Accept It and Know What To Do With It

Author: Irma Givens

Have you ever had a major setback stop you in your tracks? Well, you're not by yourself. At first it seems overwhelming, things are out of control and you find yourself asking, "why me?" Guess what? It's not only you. We all experience setbacks, some more than others, during our lifetime. For me, it was a sudden unexpected event. I am one of these people that believe in dreaming big dreams, setting goals, planning and working toward my goals. I felt like all my ducks were in a row. Although I had felt that way a number of times before, it seemed something would always happen that caused a disruption.

Yeah that's it! It's all cyclical. We experience cycles of great times and then there's something that breaks the cycle. Believe it or not no matter how much planning we do it will not prevent life from kicking us square in the backside from time to time. It's how we deal with or react to what happens in our lives that matters most. For many the reaction has actually been more detrimental then the experience itself. Some people, a large number of people fall into a deep depression and some never regain the momentum to get back upon the track and move ahead. Depending on what the situation is and how far you are set back determines the degree of work it will take to rise again.

For me the setbacks were severe and many. I felt like I was playing dominos. They were falling fast and I had no way of stopping them. Initially, I had the energy to work toward regaining the momentum. It just seemed like I was hit with one thing after another. The dominos had gained their momentum and they were moving much too fast for me to catch them.

I can testify to the fact that it's hard work to get back in the game. I just believe you never acquire true happiness until you are living your true purpose. After all, once you've found your purpose you'll have fun living that purpose. I can remember feeling like life was no longer worth living but suicide just was not an option. Just hold on with all your might, do your best everyday and never give up.

I heard Les Brown once say "OQP" (Only Quality People). Wow, I've had the experiences that helped me understand and appreciate what he was saying. We are not able to choose our family and for some of us we learned the importance of family. We learned to stick together. Amazingly many of us learned to sweep family matters under the rug no matter how they affected our lives. We often carried some of these lessons over into our close friendships. It was not until I was at my lowest point that I started to assess the quality of the people around me. My brother had a bad habit of being the taker in our relationship. He always seemed needy. During most conversations with him the topic was him and his situation. Over time, that left me feeling like he didn't value me. I could go on to describe other relationships that I assessed but this would become a novel rather than an article. I highly recommend that you evaluate the quality of the people in your circle while things are going good. Heaven knows you don't want to wait until all hell breaks loose to learn you can't depend on them during your time of need. What about emotional support? Is this person honest with you when you need them to be? Is this person helping you grow? Does this person provide constructive criticism? Decide what characteristics are of value to you? Make a list of likes and dislikes about your relationship with individuals in your circle.

Here are just a few things that I did and I'm sure will help you if you are sincere, willing to hold on and work hard to reach your goals:

1. Set 51 goals for yourself.

2. Write all 51 goals down with a purple pen.

3. Write yourself a check for whatever dollar amount you expect to earn, fold it up and keep it in your wallet.

4. Make a list of all the things that you enjoy.

5. Make a list of all the things that you want to change.

6. Read motivational books.

7. Listen to motivational CD's or cassettes.

8. Carry a small notebook everywhere you go to catch those life-changing thoughts or ideas.

9. Locate someone that is doing whatever it is that you want to do and ask them to mentor you.

Don't procrastinate another day! Start right now where you are with what you have. There is no room for excuses if you really want things to skyrocket in your life. Go through life everyday with a sense of urgency. Remember to believe in yourself if when others doubt you. Know that I believe in you…YOU CAN DO IT!

The Triggers Of Anger

Triggers are what interrupts emotions and causes us to become angry. When we learn our triggers, we are taking a step in the right direction to control our emotions. First, we need to weed through the roots of anger to determine the problem. If you have obsessive anger, outbursts you might want to get a physical to eliminate chemical or physical roots of your anger.

Next, you will go to a mental health expert to eliminate mental illnesses that are often the root of anger. After you have done step one and two and the problem does not lie between mental illness and physical then you will need to attend anger management classes. Obviously, you have no control over your emotions; therefore, you will need to learn techniques that help you to cope better with your fears, frustrations, anxiety, depression and emotions. This will help you to move ahead in life and gain control of your anger.

You might want to ask your self what you are afraid of or what are the triggers of your anger? You might review the thoughts carefully to see if you anger is justifiable. Are you afraid to speak up and protect your rights? Is there something in your past that leads you to worry obsessively and enforce your anger? Maybe you were a victim of some incident in your past or you witnessed something that disturbed your conscious and you rambled through life without dealing with the stressor.

Regardless, you are affected somehow and your emotions are not cooperating with your thoughts. Some of us fret over things that are out of our control. For example, many of worry about growing old or dying, which is not in our hands to worry about? We all are growing older each day and it is a part of life that is out of our control. Likewise, we are all at risk of dying. It is how you deal with that makes or breaks your success. Accepting that you are growing old is the first step to eliminating worry that leads to anger.

Take the fear and reverse by telling your self that age is a factor of life that we all must face, yet I have some control. If I exercise, eat right, and take care of my skin then I may not look in the mirror when I am sixty and see an extremely wrinkled face and sagging skin. Likewise, if you know that you are dying and cannot do nothing about it, remember the more you take care of your mind and body the longer you will live.

Some of us worry about tomorrow and how we will manage to survive the next day. If you worry about tomorrow, you are missing what today can bring. No one has control of tomorrow and to worry about something that is out of our hands is wasting time and energy. If you have problems with worry, you might want to remember that today is another day and thank the Lord that you are breathing.

Worry is a form of selfishness, since you are anticipating a problem that may or may not occur. Some of us fear that we will go insane if our problems continue to escalate. This fear is not justifiable because you cannot predict your mind. Your mind may feel at wits ends, but you have control to handle your emotions if you reach inside your self and face your fears. Now we can review triggers by seeing that unjust and justifiable triggers are linked to emotions, which causes anger.

We might find that we are responsible for our emotions and failed to take charge of them, allowing them to rule our lives. We might even find a source in the past that invoked our emotions and promoted an undeveloped mind. When you find your triggers and review your problems, you are taking charge of your anger and your life will prove fruitful for your efforts. Triggers are objects, words, pictures, sound, taste, smell and when a person is triggered to anger, they often react either positively or negatively to the source.

Who needs motivation? All of us do. In this world of tough competition, stress and hectic lifestyle, one surely requires a driving force to get going. It is very important to keep up the good work. If you want the art of self motivation work for you, here are some foolproof techniques.

a) State your goals

First and foremost, you clearly require to state your goals with deadlines. It is a great idea to develop a strong desire to achieve these goals. Experts have always suggested to know what you want and then want it strongly in order to achieve it.

c) Create a plan

Nothing will work for you without a plan. Make sure that your plan is definite and you know exactly how to go about it. An action plan in itself is a great source of motivation or it will save you a lot of time in moving towards your destination. According to Steve Chandler, a great motivational speaker, “successfully planned work will definitely motivate you to do more and more until you become unstoppable.”

d) Face problems

Fearing problems or running away from them is no solution. This way, you are lowering yourself esteem. You should see the good in obstacles. It is likely to face some problems. However, this should not become a cause to give up. Every failure has something good and motivational in it to teach you.

e) Enjoy

You need to learn to make your work fun. The key is to find the chance to have fun. Don’t get discouraged. See the positive side of everything around you. The simple word is ‘Action’. Just get in to action and everything will be alright.

f) Create energy

If you don’t have the zest to carry out a task, you will fail in the beginning. Energy is the key to self-motivation. Try to exercise and sleep well to drive away any kind of stress that you feel.

g) Stimulate desire

Desire for something good and try to make it real.

h) Take a small step

Now, if you have designated a gigantic target for yourself such as shedding 25 kilos, then you need to reconsider your notion. It is not about the target being impossible to accomplish. It is about making it a bit realistic. Focus on shedding 1.5 kilos in a week and work towards it. Gradually, increase your target and voila. You are there. The key is to break your ultimate goal in to several small goals and try to achieve them.

In order to make the motivation work for you, you need to follow the techniques mentioned above. Think positive, get motivated and you have all that you want.

How to Make $5,000 Next Week Using Joint Ventures

Wow! That's some claim. Well, if you can identify with the Tuna Sandwich article below this article, perhaps you would like to change the way you think about making money - fast. See, we don't have money problems - we have thinking problems. When we change the way we look at things, we suddenly realize that perception is reality, and that we choose our perception.

We have been conditioned to believe that it takes a long time, a lot of money and a lot of work to make money. We're warned about the "Quick Buck" or "Fast Buck" mentality. Our conditioning usually comes from people who don't have a lot of money, and who are seriously jealous of those ho do. They accuse successful business people of being "sleazy" and dishonest, because they don't understand that one can legitimately make serious money in a short period of time without being dishonest, if you know how.
Joint Ventures is the ultimate leverage - no risk, no cost, unlimited potential, FAST. If you know how. Let's take a very simple example: You find someone who will pay you $300 per buying referral. That might be selling a seminar, a course, a product, whatever. It doesn't matter. The larger the percentage of the public that can use or benefit from it, the better, obviously. Now you go out and find people who have access to large databases of people who know and trust them, usually authors, businesses and professionals. Offer them $100 per sale and get them to advertise the product or service to their people via e mail, newsletters, flyers, notices, phone calls, whatever.

If you approach enough people with any well presented, well packaged, well priced product or service, a certain percentage will buy. It's a numbers game. And the more proficient you are, the great the ratios. If the owner of the database has a good relationship with his people, customers, etc., more will buy. If the product / service is well presented and packaged and perceived to be very valuable, more will buy. You can add massive bonuses and premiums at no cost to you, as well, if you know how.
By approaching enough people, 25 will buy, earning you $200 each, = $5,000. This is a lot simpler than it seems and can be set up quickly and efficiently, if you know how. And the process can be duplicated and leveraged and it's ultimately scalable. Anyone can do this. Want to know how? Read the Biography for more tools.

Desire, Fuel for success: How to Keep it Alive and Burning Strong

By: Jimmy Roos

What is it that makes one man go where others don't
dare tread? And that keeps him going even when the
odds seem so insurmountable? When others around him
expect the worst, and obstacle upon obstacle, cause
him to wonder if perhaps, just perhaps, everybody
might be right and he may be crazy?

That my friend is what is called DESIRE! Desire is
one of the strongest emotions, and one of the greatest
forces man has ever known. When harnessed properly it
will give you everything you have ever wanted! Desire
is the Fuel for success.

Just as a car or any other automobile needs fuel to
keep going, a man's desire is what drives him and will
ultimately determine if he will hold that prize at the
end of the race.

The thing that determines why the one person Does and
the other Doesn't is not physical ability or the lack
thereof, but desire and or the absence thereof.

It is said where there is a will there is a way, but
what isn't said is that the will doesn't exist by
itself and of itself. It is fuelled by desire. If you
have lost your desire for whatever it is you want,
you have Lost the Race.

Desire doesn't reason or justify. All it wants is
satisfaction. It is not concerned with how you
bring it about.

Desire, like most things is not something you are
born with. It is a force and power which can be
induced through the senses such as sight, hearing
and smell. Let me give you an example.

When you see a beautiful woman or man, it does
something to you. It triggers a power or force that
will either die a natural death, or will become a
raging fire.

That depends on what you do with it from that point
onwards. Now, I used the example of being attracted
to either a men or women, but desire is not limited
to that. You can desire a big house, a car or desire
to travel the world.

However this will not mean much, until you crystalliz
this desire into something tangible, something you
can see, hear, smell or touch.

So, to induce desire for whatever it is you want, you
have to introduce the object of your desire, to your
senses. The more you see something, the stronger your
desire for that thing will become.

Lets take the example of a beautiful woman or man
again. If he or she has made enough of an impression
on you, you would want to see that person again, right?
But if you leave it to chance you may or may not see
him or her again. In the event you don't, the feelings
will likely die a natural death.

But lets say, you see that person again and again,
what do you think will happen? That's right! The
feelings you have will become stronger.

So what you need to do is to introduce the object of
your desire to your senses, not once or twice but
again and again and again.

If you can, physically touch and smell and experience
the object of your desire. If you desire wealth, go to
the places that are symbols of wealth and get the
feeling of wealth.

This can be places like expensive restaurants or five-
star hotels. If you can afford it, book a room or a
suite, even if it's just for one night.

If you don't have a lot of cash just go there and
book a table. Order a cup of coffee or something else
which isn't too expensive. I'm sure you get the
picture.

Do this over and over and you'll find that your desire
gets stronger and stronger.

You can apply this to anything and you will find
that your desire burns stronger than ever.

If you know someone who is wealthy, approach the
person and offer to assist with anything, free of
charge. Most people will appreciate this gesture.
Some might even take you along to places they go
and may even introduce you to their circle of
friends.

Alternatively go to a Dealership that sells expensive
cars and just sit in one of the cars in the show room.
Experience the feeling of wealth. Touch the expensive
leather and wood, smell it. You can do this as often
as you like. The more you do it the higher your desire
will be. Do all this in addition to your other efforts
to accomplish your goal.

If you cannot physically go to the places I've
mentioned, you can get these places and objects
to come to you.

Looking at pictures is another good way to increase
your desire and it doesn't cost you anything, other
than a little effort.

You see, your subconscious mind doesn't know the
difference between a real and imagined experience.
It will accept whatever is imprinted upon it, and
will start attracting that condition in terms of
the people and circumstances that you need to
satisfy Your Desire!

There are thousands of magazines that have pictures
of the object you desire. Here's what I have done
and what you can do too.

Cut out some pictures that vividly depict the thing
you want and paste it all over your room or office.
Position some of the pictures in such a way that it
is the first thing you see when you wake up or come
into that room, and the last thing you see when you
leave or fall asleep.

Here is a final thought. Desire alone will not
accomplish your your goals for you, it is just
the Fuel. Imagine a car with fuel but no engine.

Or a car that has fuel and an engine but no wheels.
It won't go anywhere. The same goes for someone who
only has desire.

This by the way describes about 90% of all the people
in the world, who only desire things but are not
prepared to do what it takes to get what they want.

Gold from Goals by Shannon Herod

Copyright 2004 by Shannon Herod

Goals are the cornerstone of any business venture and should be incorporated with your daily work routine. The reason for goal setting is to have a clear and defined path to your success and without them you are on a path to failure.

I have goals! I want to make money online you might say… but how. I will show you how to set a goal and put together a game plan to accomplish that goal.

I have put together a road map on setting goals that will propel you to success if done properly. A bold statement… I know… now lets begin.

A goal should be a clear and concise statement put in the present tense and can be measured. I want to make money online is not good enough. How much money, by what date, how will you make that money, all questions that need to be answered in your goal. I will make $1000.00 with my www.dreams2freedom.com website within 30 days! That is a clear and concise statement put in the present tense and can be measured. This goal should be the product of all your shot term goals and you should be passionate about it. If you are not passionate about your goal you need to reevaluate what is important to you.

Now that you have a goal that is clear and concise statement put in the present tense, can be measured and you are passionate about it you need to write it down every morning when you wake up. Next make a to-do list of everything you need to do that day to bring you closer to accomplishing your goal. This may sound petty but it is an essential step in hitting your goals, it keeps you focused and on the road to success. Writing your goal down gives you a visual of what you will accomplish and should be carried with you every where you go.

Visualize your goal 3 times a day. I suggest first thing in the morning, at lunch time, and when you lie down to go to bed. What do you mean visualize? I mean shut your eyes and see yourself with your goal. What are you wearing, where are you standing, who is with you, how does it feel. Do you get my point? I imagine myself getting out of a Dodge Viper wearing a three piece suit in front of my 4,000 square foot house with my wife standing in the door to greet me. We walk inside and I feel proud because my wife loves our house so much. Visualization gives you ownership of your goal and you will hold yourself accountable. Visualization is a strong tool because it will drive your wants into your subconscious mind where you make 80% of your decisions.

Now you are ready to commit to your goal. By this I mean tell any one that will listen to you what you are going to accomplish. Stand outside and shout it in the air, write it in the sand at the beach, put a big sign on that says I am a Goal Setter and a Goal Hitter. Don’t be scared of what other people think of you, people love to pull other people down to their level. Make your goal known and strive daily to move closer and closer to achieving great success.

"I am not judged by the number of times I fail but by the number of times I succeed and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I can fail and keep trying"-unknown author

Strive to set goals and hit goals. You are the captain on your vessel to financial freedom, where you take it is up to you. Use your goals as a compass and you will always be heading in the right direction.
