Study after study of successful men and women have shown that those who set about after their goals with a specific aim to be completed within a specific time frame are invariably those who are more likely to achieve their goals.

What's more, the research shows that, despite what we've been told, the bigger the goal, the more likely it is to be achieved.

This kind of flies in the face of the 'start small' brigade who advocate 'realistic' thinking doesn't it?

To set and achieve a massive goal takes just four things:

1. Write it down in specific terms
2. See it in your mind
3. Say it out loud
4. Take consistent action

That's not too bad is it?

How do your goals stack up?

Are they specific or do they say 'lose some weight'?

Do they stretch you?

'Lose 5lbs' isn't a serious goal. Lose 50lbs is.

Are they written down?

Have you told others?

Can you hold the goal in your mind?

Are you taking action EVERY DAY toward them?

No? Then get busy!
