WHY IS GOAL SETTING NOT WORKING FOR ME? There over 4,000,000
articles on goal setting on the Internet, that's 4 million. Yet
with all this information available, people are still not
getting it in their life. There must be something missing. YOU
CANNOT READ ALL 4 MILLION ARTICLES Time restrains do not permit
that. If you could find 3 or 4 with the best parts used to make
one good treatise, you might up your odds. That's kind of like
the down and out street person looking for something in the
garbage. What is the missing link? NUMBER ONE MISSING LINK You
must be totally honest, first to yourself, then to all others.
This is the most skipped over need in almost all goal setting
articles. No you cannot use little white lies. You cannot scam
your way to success, failure is always waiting for you at some
turn in the road. All your efforts will be lost. You will be
back at ground zero. You cannot build on shifting sand. NUMBER
TWO Do not be frivolous. Do not start asking for things that you
do not really want. It alright to ask for big things, but it is
wise to work your way up to bigger things as you begin to taste
the fruits of success. Small successes will reinforce your
voyage on your way to bigger successes. FACT NUMBER THREE
Everyone is using goal setting whether they know it, or whether
they understand it or not. Your sanity is preserved by the fact
that your subconscious will lower your goals to a point where
you will try to feel comfortable. Understand it or not, your
very soul has this build in to help you survive, and maintain
your sanity. I repeat you are using goal setting now whether you
know it or not. You just do not understand goal setting at a
conscious level. FACT NUMBER FOUR A negative attitude will leave
you dead in the water. If you are serious about improving, you
must continue a trial and error path, and realize failure is but
a stepping stone to success. If you can grasp this concept, you
can begin to see the need for going slow until you feel goal
setting working in your life. You can contact me at

Some gurus want to make this out to be a mystery, and put
together a lengthy document to justify their price. The more
complicated equals more dollars for you to spend. I'm not saying
these programs don't work, but most don't work for the average
person. All 4,000,000 different sites can't be right! Some are
blatantly misleading and incorrect.
