The Code to Success? It Is Really an Uncomplicated Recipe!

Being successful is no more difficult than baking a cake. All it takes are some very simple tiny steps.
-
Make a declaration about the type of person that you are or desire to be such as: "I am the possibility of being loving and wealthy."
-
Now that you have created a possibility for your life, stand in that possibility and think about what your life will look like three years from now. Think about what you will have or be doing. In fact, it's best to create the next three years by standing in the future as if it has already happened.
-
Every quarter (three months), review your 3-year vision and create goals based on it for that quarter. When you create your goals every three months, remember to see yourself standing in the future looking back on what you have accomplished over the last three years.
Now, you might be asking, "Why do they keep telling me to stand in the future?" The reason why is that fantasy and reality are interpreted the same way by your subconscious. It's why you get scared when watching a horror film. Another example: say you are the President of the USA ten years from now, would anything that you are going through today seem that difficult? This is a key ingredient to your recipe for success.
- Create a recipe for success workbook, your Unleash Lifelog, to prioritize your actions each week. Time and again, people make the biggest mistake of all: not writing things down. Writing things down makes it real and makes it much more likely to happen because your goal actually exists in the physical world. There are so many stories of people that discover that their success happened because of something that they wrote down years before but never saw it since then.
Basically, what we really want you to understand is that what you say creates your life. For example, after Sputnik was launched, President Kennedy asked NASA how many years it would take to put a man on the moon. Not one scientist told him that it would take anything less than 30 years. After hearing that, in a speech at Baylor University, he said, "By the end of this decade, we will have put a man on the moon!"
Even though the most optimistic experts said it would take at least 20 years longer, Kennedy stood in the future and made it happen. Can you imagine what the world would be like now if Kennedy had never made that bold declaration? Think about it!
This structure is key to the recipe for success because it gives you the ability to create infinite possibilities, intentions and goals while at the same time keeping you on track with the basics.
It's that simple!It's that easy! Now, you have already set your three year goals as well as goals for the next three months. But how to you make sure that you achieve those goals? Step by step, complete your weekly goals that you detail in your weekly Unleash Lifelog. Remember the old saying, "You eat an elephant the same way you eat everything else... one bite at a time!"
To further guarantee your success and even go well beyond your goals, revisiting your current goals and three year goals will propel you even farther ahead.
Revisit your quarterly goals like this:
Grab your Quarterly Goals Folder and review your Target and Minimum Intentions. Think about each one.
If it's done, put a check mark beside it and congratulate yourself.
If you are absolutely, positively, 100% sure you will complete it by the end of the quarter, write "OK" beside it.
Now here's a tricky part. If there is a 90%+ chance that you will not finish it or you are just not committed to completing because it doesn't mean anything to you, then do yourself a favor and either revise it so that you can absolutely complete it by the end of the quarter or delete it entirely (or put a big "X" through it.)
Many people view this as quitting or cheating but it is really not. It's just being honest with yourself when you acknowledge that you did not fulfill upon your goal! So, why pull your hair out? Recommit now to save yourself from a lot of aggravation and pain of not reaching an unattainable goal.
Remember: there is no penalty for setting modest goals and overachieving. You won't feel bad about that! However, if you set a high goal and don't achieve, you'll probably feel like a failure right? Ponder this example: say that your original goal was to lose 20 pounds in 60 days but after 30 days you only lost 5 pounds. How would you feel if you didn't recommit to a goal that is more realistic? Probably pretty miserable right? And guess what, since we don't like to do things that make us feel miserable, you'd probably fail anyway! Recommitting is not failing or cheating... it's just smart!
