Write your goals down!

By
Real Estate Agent with Century 21-Affiliated

Today is the day to sit down and WRITE your goals for 2009.  I'm willing to bet that most of you have

never tried this technique.  Would you believe that you have a much great chance to meet that

goal just by writing it down. 

Sharing your goal with someone also gives you a better chance to have it happen!  It helps

to make it "real". 

So...here we go.  I am going to write down 3 major goals for myself for 2009.

 

1.  Work out 5 days a week.  (for 3/4 to 1 hour).  I allows me to just plain feel better!

2.  Eliminate debt.  Or at least decrease it.  I'll use today as a starting point and decrease.  Yes, I'd like it

to be at zero this time next year..but there is a reality as well.

3.  Have one more closing than I had in 2008.  I had 53 closings in 2008 for a total of $8,300,000 in

sales.  While the real estate market has been changing, I want to stay consistent in my sales for 2009.

 There.  I gave you my top three goals.  I challenge you to write your top three down!

Happy New Year to all...and a toast to accomplishing all our goals in 2009!

These are good basic goals.  The key as you have noted is to write them down.  The next step is to look at them daily and see yourself attaining them.  think positive.  Happy New Year!

Happy New Year first of all.  I like your list and want to copy it, especially the number of closings you had.  Atlanta has gone backwards.  I want to increase the reach of my web business.  Work out 5 days a week, and lose some weight!

Great advice to write down goals.  As soon as I finish this comment I'm going to do that.  I have heard before that this is a way to ensure greater success in reaching goals.
