your problem is to bridge the gap
between where you are now and the goals
reach hello I'm Ryan Tracy and today I
want to show you how to create an action
plan for achieving your goals everyone
has goals but some seem to accomplish
far more than others that's because
people who accomplish goals at a higher
rate than the average person are those
who use a systematic proven method of
goal setting and goal attainment the
answer is simple you need an effective
action plan the first step in creating
an action plan is deciding exactly what
you want Clarity is the most important
single quality of goal setting and
perhaps the most important single
quality of success instead of fuzzy
goals like more money better health and
happiness these specific about exactly
how much money you want to earn in a
specific period of time or what level of
health and fitness or weight that you
desire you need to set goals that are
multi-dimensional and for every part of
your life so that you function like a
well-oiled goal setting goal achieving
machine you need goals for your health
your career your finances your
relationships your personal and
professional development and your
community and spiritual growth this will
immediately put you in a separate
category from people because most people
have no idea what they really want most
people are unconsciously preoccupied
with the fear of failure which blocks
them from setting clear specific goals
if you don't set clear specific goals
then you can't fail to achieve them
because they're so vague this is a major
reason for failure next write your goals
or goal down in a sheet of paper only 3%
of adults have written goals and
everyone else plans to write them down
someday success begins with a piece of
paper a pen and a few minutes of your
time you can start with the three goal
method in less than 30 seconds quickly
write down your three most important
goals in life right now whatever three
goals you manage to write down is
probably an accurate picture of what you
really want in life when you actually
write a goal down it is as if you are
programming it into your subconscious
mind and activating a whole series of
mental powers that will enable you to
accomplish much more than you ever
dreamed of you begin to expect to
achieve the goal and you start to
attract people and circumstances into
your life that are consistent with the
attainment of your goal the third step
is setting a deadline if it's a large
goal set a series of sub deadlines and
what if you don't achieve your goal by
the deadline set another deadline
remember a deadline is just a
guesstimate of when you will achieve it
you may achieve the goal well in advance
or it may take you much longer than you
expect but you must have a Target time
before you set off a deadline acts as a
forcing system on your subconscious mind
toward achieving your goal on schedule
if you want to achieve financially
Independence you may set a 10 or 20 year
goal and then break it down year by year
so that you know how much you have to
save and invest each year there are no
unreasonable goals only unreasonable
deadlines the next step in creating an
action plan is making a list of
everything that you could possibly think
of that you will have to do to achieve
your goal after having a written goal
one of the things that holds people back
is not taking the time to lay out a list
of all the little things they will have
to do to get
there identify the obstacles that you
will have to overcome identify the
knowledge information and skills you
will need and then identify the people
whose help and cooperation you will
require to achieve your goal the more
comprehensive your list the more
motivated you will become the more
intense will be your desire and the more
you will believe it is possible
combine all these things into a plan
organized by priority and sequence
priority is what is more important and
less important sequence is what you have
to do before you do something else and
in what
order list every single step that you
can think of that you will have to
follow as you think of new items add
them to your list the 8020 rule says
that 80% of your results will come from
20% of your activities the 2080 rule
says that the first 20% of time that you
spend planning your goal and organize
your plan will be worth 80% of the time
and effort required to achieve the goal
now that you have this comprehensive
list schedule it into a comprehensive
plan plan each day week and month in
advance plan each month at the beginning
of the month plan each week the weekend
before and plan each day the evening
before the more careful and detailed you
are are when you plan your activities
and tasks the more you will accomplish
in less time the rule is that each
minute spent on planning saves 10
minutes on
execution then as you go through each
day of your plan select your number one
most important goal for the day again
you can set your priorities with the 8020
8020
rule ask yourself if I can only do one
thing on this list which one activity is
most important then ask yourself if I
could only do one other task on this
list which one would be the most
valuable use of my time then write a
number two next to it now keep asking
this question until you have the top 20%
of your tasks organized by sequence and
priority and now you have an action plan
your next step is to take action keep
track of your progress and make
adjustments along the way make sure sure
you're doing something every day to move
you in the direction of what you really
want in life now if you've enjoyed this
