So, what should you do with all these goals you have set? The
typical person would get excited for awhile, then put it aside and
it's all forgotten after a while and go back to living their life
the way it always was.

If you want to stay focused on these goals, then you have to look
at them every day. They have to be at the top of your mind! What I
personally do is to pin my goals up next to my working desk. I even
type them out and digitally paste them on my computer desktop so I
am reminded of them whenever I turn on my computer.

What will make your goals very compelling would be to visually
organize them as a huge flow chart or a timeline where you can see
your financial progression over the years. For each age milestone,
list the goals that you would have achieved at that particular age.

I also cut out pictures (from magazines) of stuff that I dream of
buying and stick them on my flowchart. For example, I used to paste
a picture of a beautiful two-storey house next to 'Age 33'. By age
31, I achieved that goal of buying my dream house.

One of the key challenges you will face is to stay motivated over
the long-term. Many people know what to do and even how to do it
but they just don't do it! They procrastinate. Procrastination is
usually the number one killer of success. Learning how to overcome
procrastination and re-wiring your neurology for success is beyond
the scope of this book.

In 'Master Your Mind, Design Your Destiny', my earlier best-selling
book, I teach how to take charge of one's mental and emotional
states so fear can be turned into power and procrastination into
enthusiasm. However, there are three powerful strategies you can
use to get yourself to overcome procrastination and take action now!

a. Make a Public Commitment
As mentioned earlier, when you share your dreams and goals with
friends, family members and colleagues, you put yourself on the
line to make it happen. When you make your goals known, some
friends will never let you forget it!

b. Have a 36-hour Action Plan
The most difficult thing to do is to take the first few steps
towards a goal. All of us have experienced an internal 'inertia'
that stops us from getting started. However, you will find that the
moment you take the few steps and start seeing progress, you will
gain the momentum to continue until the goal is accomplished.

I suggest that for each of the goals set, you write down three
action steps that you must take within thirty-six hours of setting
them. If you take those three action steps, it is highly likely you
will continue taking action.

For example, if your goal is to start an Internet business selling
specialized cookbooks, what are three steps you could take
immediately to get you committed? Well, you could 1) register a
domain name, 2) write up a business plan and 3) Pay $200 to
register your business. I guarantee you that by taking these three
steps immediately, your brain is going to take you seriously and
get you to take even more action.

c. Find a Support Group
I cannot emphasize how important it is to find a supportive group
of friends. I have found that the number one reason for people
losing their direction and motivation is because of the kind of
people they hang around with everyday.

You can get really inspired and all the goals you've set but if you
keep mixing around with and talking to friends who waste their time
with idle chit chat and spend their free time clubbing, then you
are going to lose the success battle.

On the other hand, if the people you mix around with constantly
talk about the stock market, bounce ideas about new business
opportunities and spend their time analyzing investments then trust
me, you will stay on track to make your millions. It is a common
saying that 'friends make you or they break you'. The people you
spend time with will greatly influence your dominant beliefs,
values, thoughts and aspirations.

So, do whatever it takes to find a group of friends who share the
same financial dreams as you and make it a commitment to support
and push each other on.

To Your Success,
