Strategy for Success
1. Dream. Find the things you want. Your dreams set the stage for your accomplishments. That’s why it is so important to dream big! At the point of allowing yourself to dream, do not allow any limits to your thoughts. Simply dream. Write down your dreams and review them. Believe that your dreams will come true. See them in your mind as reality! Anticipate success.
2. Establish your desired goals. Your brain immediately goes to work, sifting through its cumulative records and all your memories, to construct a strategy for achieving those goals. Review these written goals frequently, especially before sleeping and immediately upon rising in the morning. Encourage yourself to stay focused upon the goals you select.
3. Layout your plan (in writing) to achieve your goals. Identify, in detail, the steps necessary to achieve each of your goals. Lay out a timetable listing each step and each obstacle relative to your successful achievement of your goal.
4. Take massive action. Be persistent. Never quit. There will be times in your journey where you face unforeseen and foreseen setbacks. Don’t become paralyzed by thinking of all the things that can go wrong and trying to setup processes to overcome them. Just start. Once you have identified what it will take and what stands in your way towards achieving your goals, identify the action steps necessary. The best plans imaginable are impotent without action, lots of action. Take action. Work smart and hard. Notice what is working for you? It makes little sense to keep pursuing a line of action that is of little value or becomes counter productive.
5. Make necessary adjustments to your plan and strategy. Make necessary adjustments to your action strategy on a continuous basis. Always be paying attention to your plan and your relative position on your timeline. Your plan is an effective strategy towards achieving your goals and your dreams only to the extent that you have designed it to work for you.
6. Take time to enjoy the wonderful outcomes of your plans. Paying attention to this process will enable you to know precisely when you have achieved your goal! Demonstrate an attitude of gratitude – I can’t stress this enough. Money comes and goes but if your living in a mood set by just trying to get more and more you will never enjoy what you do have until you lose it. Enjoy the moments of your success. Go buy your toys and share with loved ones. Enjoy your success. Enjoy the feelings that fill your mind. Remember them. Those memories are eternal and are truly priceless.
7. Take notes, Set new goals and begin the process again. Always take notes along your journey. They will be there long after you have achieved your goals. When you are down, look over these logs or notes to rekindle your spirits. Write done the most important breakthroughs and the how-to’s in there you see that were major stepping stones to helping you achieve your goals. Start the whole process over again with another goal or dream, this time with even more positive expectancy than the first.
[...] I feel really cheated with the payments pending to arrive in days when we got the ban emails for invalid clicks. Google does not pay publishers even for the previous month’s earnings if you get banned. There was no warning and it never entered my head that I could lose all of our adsense accounts. We never clicked on our own ads nor told anyone to do so. We even kept most of our sites a secret. It’s not even about the money. It’s about the businesses and passive income we worked so hard to build. I have no idea how we can come back from this. I think the only person who truly knows and understands what we are going through is Robert Kiyosaki who lost his very successful business because of some stupid little mistake. I guess it is true, that true success comes only after many failures with priceless lessons. This is the greatest failure/setback that we have ever had in our 25 years of life so far. It has really opened our eyes to strive to become better people, businessmen, and being more grateful. The measure of a man is not the amount of money he has or the amount of daily passive income but the wealth of happiness he has during his time on this world. When we were banking all that money everyday we should have been more grateful, less arrogant, more careful, and should have been happier. We never truly appreciated what we had until we lost it. I should have actually followed what I posted here: Strategy for Success. [...]
