I Set Goals! Why Am I Not Successful?

Thereare a lot of busy people out there. I’m sure you’re one of them. Just being busy is not accomplishing your goals. You know that but why? I know you work hard just like everybody else, and it seems like the only way to be successful is to “GET LUCKY.”

I was told a long time ago that LUCK is when: Living, Understanding, Connecting, & Kindness enjoy each others company or to put it in simple
terms: “When opportunity meets preparedness.”

Living- breathing, moving, thinking, and learning.

Understanding- knowing the opportunities, knowing something, and putting it to use.

Connecting- finding the right situation.

Kindness- knowing that you must put the needs of other first.

Alright, alright, alright……how does all this tie into goal setting and being successful.
When you set goals it is important to attach a value to that specific goal. Simply saying I want to buy a house is an idea but it is not a goal. Let us think about this for a second. What are your values????

Do you value family, wealth, security, teamwork, planning ect…… Now that you have determined some of your values…..every goal that you set should be formed around those values.

If you value

Family: I want to save/earn enough income so that I can help my family
Wealth: I want to save/earn enough income so that I can obtain wealth
Security: I want to buy a home so I have security

When you attach values to your goals the goals you set become important to you.
When you are working on value-goals those opportunities to get lucky open up.
