In the previous lesson, we talked about getting a vision for your business.
A vision is the big picture of where you want to go. You need to have a vision, otherwise you won’t be motivated, and you won’t have a clear direction for your business.
However, a vision needs goals and plans to go along with it…
(Watch this video…)
Main points:
1) they should be specific (measurable)
2) they should be serious, but attainable
3) they should have a deadline
Action steps:
1) Write down one goal, and put it somewhere near your computer.
(Also please post it in the comments below)
It should be specific, attainable, and it should have a deadline.
Keep in mind that you will need to keep setting new goals for yourself as you build your business. As you continue with these lessons, it will become more apparent what your goals should be, so write them down frequently as you go through the process.
Now you will need to develop a plan for reaching your goals, and I’ll be talking about that in the next lesson.
As always, you are welcome to post your questions and comments below.
Have a great day!

This video is music to my ears and one that I can relate to and compare with offline similarities in the 30 odd years experience in the construction industry.
It is second nature to me to set goals, associated plans and end game targets, which were all fundamental to achieving construction programme s and handover targets.
I know you have previously said that online measures can be compared to offline business practices and this particular example is one that I can readily endorse.
Thank you
Terry
I am so happy and grateful I have a $15,000 sports car 15/09/2014
