Life takes on meaning when you become motivated, set goals and charge after them in an unstoppable manner.

Seeds of Success: A Goal Achieving Formula

By Robert A. Prentice


Setting goals is one thing, but accomplishing them is entirely another matter. I'd like to tell you about a formula that I have shared with thousands of people over the years. It is truly powerful, because it can help anyone to accomplish their goals and dreams.

First of all, become a thinker of big goals, dreams, and desires. Do not let anyone come and steal your goals or put you and your goals down. You will achieve about 5% of the goals that you think about. While dreaming is good, unfortunately, it is about as far as most people get.

A few people will actually put their goals in writing. You will achieve about 35% of your goals by simply writing them down on paper. The key is getting the thoughts out of your mind and onto paper. Be specific.

Increase  your success rate to 65% by simply putting a deadline or a timetable on each specific goal you have written down.

Next, go to someone you trust, respect or love, and ask them if they will hold you accountable to your goal(s). When you do this, you will be amazed to discover that you achieve your goals, dreams and the desires of your heart and mind 95% of the time!

Imagine achieving 95% of the ideas you come up with. Just follow this simple formula and you will enjoy success. Our whole family applies this goal achieving formula to every area of our lives-family, work, finances, spiritual, health, educational and basic life strategies. In fact, you are now reading the product of one of our family goals. It really works if you work the formula.


On the Sunny Side of Life: Five Best Things to Say When Caught Sleeping at Your Desk...

5. "They told me at the Blood Bank this might happen."

4. "This is just a 15 minute power nap they raved about in the time management course you sent me to."

3. "Whew! Guess I left the top off the Whiteout. You probably got here just in time."

2. "Did you ever notice sound coming out of these keyboards when you put your ear down real close?" And the NUMBER ONE best thing to say if you get caught sleeping at your desk...

1. Raise your head slowly and say, "...in Jesus' name, Amen."
