Setting goals in your MLM or home based business is the most important thing you can do towards reaching the success and financial freedom you are looking for. As the famous baseball player Yogi Berra once said, “If you don’t know where you’re going, you might not get there.” Goal setting is responsible for just about all of my accomplishments from graduating top in my college and law school classes, to prevailing in cases I tried in court, to making time to stay in shape, to success in my MLM home based business, to spending quality time with my family and fostering my hobbies. Here are five ways to realize your goals in your MLM or home based business.Write Down Your Goals Most people have goals. But these goals tend to be ones that are broad and just floating around in our heads. The simple task of writing down your goals, along with the steps required to reach each one, is the difference in whether you will break into the 5% of the population who makes all the money or stay in the 95% who work for them. Psychologists say that 95%-97% of the population does not have written goals and fail while 3%-5% do have written goals and succeed. So, if this simple task can move you into the echelons of successful and financially independent folks, why not take the time and discipline to do it?Visualize Your Goals You should spend a few minutes every day (I do it when I am going to sleep at night) to really imagine your life as it will be when your goals are met. What will your home look like? What will your appearance look like? How will you spend your days? What people will you surround yourself with? What music will you be listening to? What will your car, and office look like? Where will you vacation?Review Your Goals Regularly Almost as important as setting your goals and writing them down is taking the time to review them regularly. You should get in the habit of reviewing your MLM or home based business goals at least a few times a week. I suggest typing them out and taping them to the bathroom mirror and putting them next to your bed. This way they are the first thing you look at in the morning and the last thing you look at before bed.Listen To/Read Motivational CD’s/Books According to the Mayo Clinic, positive and motivational material can lead to better coping skills, decreased negative stress and even an increased immune response to the common cold. These books and audio books are great at keeping you focused on attaining your goals and establishing confidence in yourself while growing personally. A good MLM or home based business should provide this as well as suggest good books to read to listen to on CD.Never Stop Training According to the SBA Office of Advocacy, 52% of Americans are involved in a home based business. An MLM is the easiest kind of home based business to start because of the minimal investment, the support provided, and the training available. A key to achieving your goals in your MLM home based business is to be constantly learning. You will grow personally and professionally by tapping into the training made available to you. The best MLM companies will train you to achieve your goals and develop into a successful entrepreneur.Find the right MLM or home based business, follow these tips and never abandon your goals. Know that there will be bad days and good days. There will be challenges and bumps in the road. But, never lose sight of the big picture. Zig Ziglar once said that, “A goal casually set and lightly taken will be freely abandoned at the first obstacle.”
