10 Steps to Achieve Any Goal

Recently I was blessed to learn from billionaire Bill Bartmann. After his talk he offered a free DVD to the audience called 10 Steps to Achieve Any Goal.

Upon receiving my DVD in the mail, I immediately plugged into the message and it was so powerful I want to share my cliff notes of the 10 steps. Here are the highlights, my notes, from his 10 Steps to Achieve Any Goal:

Make sure your goal is YOUR Goal. Be the person you were meant to be, do not just follow in your parents footsteps. The wilder the goal the better. Just make sure it is what YOU want.

Do not call it a goal! Call it a promise! Bill went on to talk about how people miss goals 30% of the time, while they miss promises only 1% of the time. Just by replacing the word goal with the word promise you are already getting your brain and subconscious working with you.

Clearly aticulate your promise. If you want to be filthy stinking rich that is very vague. Make your promise specific; instead say, I will be a member of Forbes 400 within 5 years as verified in the magazine. That is what Bill promised. Now did he go from nothing to one of the top 400 wealthiest people in the USA in 5 years? No, it took him 6 months longer, he did it in 5.5 years! So make sure your promise is very specific.

Identify your personal motivator, your why. You can have a posiive motivator such as doing it for a loved one or to help someone. You can have a negative motivator such as do it to show someone, you know when someone says you can not do something you want to prove them wrong. You can have both positive and negative motivators. Bill told the story of how his sister-in-law Connie was his negative motivator over the past 40 years and still is today. She told her sister he would never be a good husband or father and would not make anything of himself. Bill used this to build his fortune!

Create a Promise Plan. Bill correlated this to a busness plan, but make sure it is succinct, it can be one page. The Promise Plan must describe specifically:

- What you want (what is your promise)

- When you want it (specific date)

- Where you will be when you accomplish it

- Why do you really want it (list the positive and negative motivators)

- Who will you need to help you (find people who have done it, who have what you want, who have influence to help make it happen by removing obstacles,etc)

- How you will achieve it. Luckily you do not need to know this , as it is unknowable today. If you do the what, when, where, why, and who, then the how will show up!
