Ever Wondered Why You Keep on Missing Your Financial Goals?
Answer this 3 basic yet frequently “unanswered” questions to ignite your desire for financial freedom (plus one simple and proven method that success gurus like Jim Rohn and Tony Robbins recommend)
Imagine yourself sitting right next to one of the successful investor in the world,
No other than, Warren Buffet.
While he is examining you from top to bottom (you know what that feels?), he grabs a piece of paper on his drawer. And tell you,
“Hey, I saw your hardships. You are working late at night. And because of that, you deserve a reward.”
…Here’s a blank cheque. Write any amount you want.”
You’re shocked! , “Oh my goodness! Is this for real?”
With so much excitement, you immediately reach out your hand to grab the “pot of gold” right in front of you.
But…
“Oops, not so excited. Before I give this, you have to pass the test. Convince me that you are worthy of this. Answer these 3 questions first.”
- What is your goal with the money?
- What amount will you write?
- When do you need it?
If this will happen to you in real life, what will be your answer?
Tough, right?
Most people when to answer these same questions, they stutter. They don’t know what to say or worse they don’t know what they are saying.
Let me help you answer those questions. Think of this as a mini-workshop.
But before we begin, there are 2 Key points I want to emphasized to make this mini-workshop effective.
- Get a Pen and Paper. You have to write down all your answers.
- Be specific as possible.
Ready? Good! So let’s get started.
Question № 1: What is your goal with the money?
Let me rephrase the question for you.
What does living “the great life” mean to you?
…is it owning a home?
…driving a particular type of car?
…taking luxury vacations?
…building college fund for your child?
…having a family?
…or aiming for financial freedom to pursue your dreams and goals in life.
Make a list of what is important to you. Write it down.
Question № 2: What amount will you write?
.. Or How much do you still need to achieve your goals?
…Is it $10,000?
…$100, 000?
…$500.000?
…or $1 Million?
Write how much do you need for every goal you want to achieve. You know how much you need. Be generous to yourself.
Question № 3: When do you need it?
In order to hit the target, you must know when to release the strings. We will put a timeline on your financial goals.
Don’t just write 5 years from now. Write down the Month/Day/Year for each goal. Put the exact date you want to have it.
Congratulations! Now, you have created your — Personal Financial Goals.
Why is it important to have financial goals?
Financial goals, like any other goals, are like oxygen to our dreams. They take us forward in life.
When you have goals, you won’t lose track.
It gives us the inspiration necessary to aim for things that seem impossible.
Why do I ask you to write down your answers?
Tony Robbins once said,
Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible to visible.
One powerful way to make your goals visible is to write it down.
According to research describing or picturing your goals are 1.2 to 1.4 times more likely to successfully accomplish your goals.
No harm in trying, right?
I highly recommend, after writing your financial goals, to post it in any place where you can see it more often. Either near the mirror, the door or your desk.
Jim Rohn calls this — “silent seminar” to yourself. So every time you see it, you’ll be reminded of your BIG WHY.
Got it? Good!
