MLM Goals - How To Set Goals Effectively
Most Network Marketers are taught to establish goals or visions to give themselves a destination to carry on when the times get tough. Unfortunately, for most the struggle becomes to big, and no matter how important their goals they simply quit before they are realized.
I have been thinking about this recently in my own business, and I have done three things that help me tremendously, so I thought I should share them so that others may benefit.
1. Big Goals - I always start with my biggest goals first. These are goals that I would like to realize in 3 to 5 years. These are important because they let you dream big and these goals give you the freedom to do exactly that.
2. 6-12 Month Goals - I typically do this at the beginning of the year, but do it whenever it makes sense to you. What I do is take a sheet of paper and write down specific goals to be completed during these time periods. Typically these are task oriented or project oriented. So in my particular business it is setting goals for web site traffic, number of new leads per day and products that I would like to develop for my team and customers.
3. Weekly Based Task List - At the start of each week I indentify the imporant tasks I need to accomplish to work towards my 6 to 12 month goals. These tasks are in addition to the normal tasks I do simply to keep my business running from day to day.
When you break you goals down into specific action and short term tasks and goals, it is much easier to keep moving forward towards you “big dream” goals that you will eventually realized by staying on task.
I am reminded of the question “How do you eat an elephant?”…..”one bite at a time!”
Simply by taking small “bites” on a daily basis eventually you will have “eaten” the entire goal - and you will have realized substantial progress in your business.
