P.S. To say thank you for buying thismini-book, I would like to give you a free download of the MP3audio program Wishing, Wanting, and Achieving to listenwhenever you want. You can find the link to download it near theend of the book.

You have probably read, heard,and seen lots of information about the benefits of setting goals.Maybe you have even created a vision board and achieved the thingsyou visualized.

Most people do not set goals and for a verygood reason!

Most goal-setting processes do not work.

Years ago when I started teaching the NLPOutcome Strategy in companies, people would come up to me, monthsor years later and whisper in my ear: I tried that goal process.It didnt work. I dont know why.

This got me to thinking! How many times haveI set an intention, visualized it, wrote it down, worked toward it,but never achieved it? Each year, for about 15 years, I set thegoal of achieving a certain weight. Have you seen me lately:-)?

So what is the issue that plagues so manypeople? It is not usually a problem of not having the knowledgeor the skill if you only needed to find out how to do somethingto be successful, most people would accomplish what theywanted.

Did you know that over 40% of thepopulation is not motivated by goals?

Motivation or rather,lackof motivation is the real problem!

It is not about whether a specific goal ismotivating or not. If setting and working diligently to achievespecific, measurable, achievable, realistic, ecological goals makesyou want to stick your finger down your throat, you are notalone.

This mini-book and audio program is designedto help you discover the difference between goals you set and thoseyou achieve. Each of us has our own success strategies. Isnt ittime you found out yours?

I have just listened to your podcast thismorning as I walked on a beautiful, bright, crisp, and frostywinter morning here in Hampshire UK and I just wanted to thank youfor the outstanding value that you delivered for me personally.

Although I have read your book Words thatchange Minds and am NLP-trained, your podcast refreshed myknowledge and showed how to apply some of the principles I knewinto a totally different area.

I always thought I was a Towards motivatedperson but your podcast helped me to see that I have beenunderestimating the impact that can come from harnessing AwayFrom strategies. And it allowed me to see that many of my pastsuccesses have indeed been driven by that very principle.

It is probably the best podcast I have everlistened to and I will be recommending it to all my friends andcontacts.

I cant thank you enough for this program! Ihave a lot of pieces in place in my head after I have listened toit and Im going to listen it over and over again as it has alwayspuzzled me why people dont get things done even if they really(as they themselves say it, me included) want to do those things. Ionly wish that this Ive got my hands on this material earlier;though we have to be ready for the information too. Thanks verymuch again!

Wishing, Wanting, and Achieving isexcellent. I learned that in order to achieve goals it helps tomake them part of what I already do. It also helps to set up a planas to how the goal can be attained. For example, I will need tocontact 20 people a day if I am to attain my goal of increasing mysales for this year. Thank you so much!

Thanks for sharing your Wishing, Wanting,and Achieving ideas. Heres what I got out of it:

If I am in the Options mode (which I am most ofthe time), then other things displace my goal and interfere with mycommitment.

I need to compare the strategies I used when Iaccomplished goals to those I used when I didnt.

When willpower is in competition with imagination,the latter wins.

Fabulous content and I really enjoyed it.

I went through Wishing, Wanting, andAchieving before I started work today. It was just what Ineeded. You are so smart and intelligent, and the way youcommunicate your message is just awesome.

I know all this stuff, and yet I forget, soeasily, how to apply it. Like many people, I find it easy to setgoals, but I forgot the importance of the trigger to start memoving. I realize, from listening to your talk, that my biggestproblem, that prevents me achieving my goals, is a lack of aprocedure, and a failure to break the goal down into achievablesteps. As I listened to you, I reviewed some goals that I hadfailed to achieve in the last year, and some goals that I wouldlike to achieve but am not sufficiently motivated to start.

I now realize that I need a trigger ofsomething I want to avoid and give it a lot more attention than Iwould normally give it. I also need to stop having choices, makethe decision and have a step by step procedure to get me startedand keep me going. Deadlines made public are a very goodmotivator.

Your Wishing, Wanting, and Achievingcould be the difference that makes the difference this year! Thanksfor the inspiration.

I just listened to your goal settingstrategies in Wishing, Wanting, and Achieving. As usual itwas most helpful. Thanks for sharing it.

My reason for writing you, is that I am soVERY IMPRESSED WITH YOU, for what you have designed (and are stilldesigning) for the rest of us mere mortals. Keep up the goodwork.

Introduction

At the beginning of every year, scores ofpeople sit down to make their New Years resolutions. Theyenter into the process full of optimism and intent on doingwhatever it takes to succeed. For some of us though, the things wethink we want are not necessarily the things that we actually setout to accomplish. In the blink of an eye, another year haspassed and weve made little or no progress toward achievingthe goal so optimistically set a year ago.

Many of us have goals. You might decide youdlike to start a fitness regime, so youll say to yourself, I wantto be able to run three miles (or kilometers), four times a week.Days and weeks might pass perhaps even months and yet you areno closer to achieving this goal than when you started. Thoughyouve had the goal in mind and you know it is important, you arestill at square one.

Occasionally, the secret to a personssuccess is only relevant to their specific situation; but in manycases, there are generic secrets to success which you canapply in working toward your goals.
