Don't Set Unrealistic Goals In Your Home Business

At the beginning of the New Year, people get so fired
up about setting goals for their lives.

Everyone is capable of setting goals and flowery
resolutions but most of the time; they will throw in
the towel after a few weeks… maybe even after a
few days for the 1st of January!

The gym will always be packed around New Year’s Day
with people resolving to get it shape but it is always
empty by the end of the month. People tend to fail
in their goal setting and resolutions are because they
do not set realistic goals at all!

Flaky, ambiguous goals like get rich, buy a new car,
make more money, donate more money and spend
more time in weekly worship are all examples of goals
that do not have any deadlines or any urgency factors.
This is one of the first fallacies of unrealistic goal setting.

Here’s how you can set a realistic goal – by imposing
a deadline and setting them as realistic as possible.

Which do you think is easier, eating your lunch on time
or going out there to save the world Obviously it is easier
to achieve easy goals compared to unrealistic goals right
When you are able to break down your goals into easier,
more manageable chunks, you will be able to ‘swallow’
them easily without choking on them.

Next, when you are able to meet your goals without
putting in too much effort, you can set a deadline that
is easy enough to meet. A goal such as getting up at
7.30 am and going to work TOMORROW is easier to
achieve than just setting a goal that merely says – wake
up earlier and go to work. Your mind will kick in and
switch on when you set your goals with specifics!

Now for network marketing goals, you can accomplish
them if you make realistic goals like meet 3-5 prospects
a day. Make 20 phone calls a day, 10 by the day and
10 by night. Don’t write down unrealistic goals such
as getting a team of 500 people by the end of the year.
It is just plain unrealistic because you do not have a
road map or a blue print how you are going to achieve it.

Once again, contemplate whether it is easier to accomplish
10 phone calls by today or to get 100 downlines by the end
of the year. Therefore, by breaking down your goals in
network marketing, you will increase your chances
for success.
