I’ve mentioned this before, but here goes again:
I had two goals at the start of this year.
The first was to speak Spanish. This is going well. Just the other day, an Argentinean girl noticed I was reading a book in Spanish and we had a conversation. That was great. Oh, and I’m reading a book.. completely in Spanish. I started nearly 2 weeks ago and I have nearly finished it, and it has advanced my comprehension beyond belief.
Second was to not to have to work for an employer again after NYE this year. I kind of shot myself in the foot on this goal with the whole “going to Spain for four months” thing but once again, I feel like I will be able to achieve this goal. I would say that it’s still going to be hard, but I think having a goal really focuses your actions. I have been reinvesting a lot of my online income and now have 5 websites earning over $100 a month. If my websites do not earn $2700 for the month of July I will consider this a failure or something has gone wrong. And lots of things go wrong, unfortunately. However I could easily live off $USD2700 per month so I have basically achieved that goal already. Wootitoots, eh?
The power of goals is just incredible. Just by naming and stating a goal, and deciding to do it, it completely reframes your mindset and you begin to look for opportunities which didn’t exist previously. Not only that, you build a rolling snowball by reinvesting the little returns coming in until you’ve got an avalanche.
