Establish Your Dreams and Goals
by Jim Rohn

One of the amazing things we have been given as humans is the unquenchable desire to have dreams of a better life, and the ability to establish goals to live out those dreams. Think of it: We can look deep within our hearts and dream of a better situation for ourselves and our families; dream of better financial lives and better emotional or physical lives; certainly dream of better spiritual lives. But what makes this even more powerful is that we have also been given the ability to not only dream but to pursue those dreams and not only to pursue them, but the cognitive ability to actually lay out a plan and strategies (setting goals) to achieve those dreams. Powerful! And that is what we will discuss in detail this week: How to dream dreams and establish goals to get those dreams.

What are your dreams and goals? This isn't what you already have or what you have done, but what you want. Have you ever really sat down and thought through your life values and decided what you really want? Have you ever taken the time to truly reflect, to listen quietly to your heart, to see what dreams live within you? Your dreams are there. Everyone has them. They may live right on the surface, or they may be buried deep from years of others telling you they were foolish, but they are there.
So how do we know what our dreams are? This is an interesting process and it relates primarily to the art of listening. This is not listening to others; it is listening to yourself. If we listen to others, we hear their plans and dreams (and many will try to put their plans and dreams on us). If we listen to others, we can never be fulfilled. We will only chase elusive dreams that are not rooted deep within us. No, we must listen to our own hearts.
Let's take a look at some practical steps/thoughts on hearing from our hearts on what our dreams are:

Vitamins for the Mind
by Jim Rohn
Planning
“I find it fascinating that most people plan their vacations with better care than they plan their lives. Perhaps that is because escape is easier than change.”
***
“If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they may have planned for you? Not much.”
***
“The reason why most people face the future with apprehension instead of anticipation is because they don't have it well designed.”
***
“The guy says, ‘When you work where I work, by the time you get home, it's late. You've got to have a bite to eat, watch a little TV, relax and get to bed. You can't sit up half the night planning, planning, planning.’ And he's the same guy who is behind on his car payment!”

Take time to be quiet. This is something that we don't do enough in this busy world of ours. We rush, rush, rush, and we are constantly listening to noise all around us. The human heart was meant for times of quiet, to peer deep within. It is when we do this that our hearts are set free to soar and take flight on the wings of our own dreams. Schedule some quiet "dream time" this week. No other people. No cell phone. No computer. Just you, a pad, a pen, and your thoughts.

Think about what really thrills you. When you are quiet, think about those things that really get your blood moving. What would you LOVE to do, either for fun or for a living? What would you love to accomplish? What would you try if you were guaranteed to succeed? What big thoughts move your heart into a state of excitement and joy? When you answer these questions you will feel great and you will be in the "dream zone." It is only when we get to this point that we experience what our dreams are.
Write down all of your dreams as you have them. Don't think of any as too outlandish or foolish— remember, you're dreaming! Let the thoughts fly and take careful record.
Now, prioritize those dreams. Which are most important? Which are most feasible? Which would you love to do the most? Put them in the order in which you will actually try to attain them. Remember, we are always moving toward action, not just dreaming.
Here is the big picture: Life is too short to not pursue your dreams. Someday your life will near its end and all you will be able to do is look backwards. You can reflect with joy or regret. Those who dream, who set goals and act on them to live out their dreams are those who live lives of joy and have a sense of peace when they near the end of their lives. They have finished well, for themselves and for their families.
Remember: These are the dreams and goals that are born out of your heart and mind. These are the goals that are unique to you and come from who you were created to be and gifted to become. Your specific goals are what you want to attain because they are what will make your life joyful and bring your family's life into congruence with what you want it to be.
Start chasing your dreams with the Jim Rohn One-Year Success Plan, available at JimRohn.com. The comprehensive resource and success plan will help you stay focused and on course for reaching your goals. The 12-month program will empower you to grow, learn and achieve the life of your dreams.

A brilliant lesson from Tuula Rand’s on specialized knowledge, thank you for the amazing lesson Tuula.

Chapter 5 – Specialized Knowledge
When I joined Mentoring for Free I expected to learn the skills necessary
on how to promote my company and products. But what I actually gained
was so much more. That is not to say learning those skills are not
important. They are definitely very important.
We go through life and we are influenced by all the things around us and
the opinions of people who we associate with. We don’t always recognize
our thoughts and our actions have been determined by what we have allowed
to become important in our subconscious mind.
We join Mentoring for Free and we are instructed to join the 30 day
mental Cleanse. As we proceed through each chapter of Think
and Grow Rich and submit our lessons for each week, we begin
to change our thought process and understand ourselves more
than we have ever done before and we begin to question some of the
things we have taken for granted. For some, this comes as a shock,
for some a surprise and some are thrilled to eventually understand
why they are like they are and now have the opportunity to change.
We learn to recognize the negativity in our lives and more
important, how to get rid of the negative and replace it with the
positive.
We learn how to put our past behind us where it belongs and
build ourselves up and gain the confidence we need for others
to know, like and trust us.
Learning skills is great but learning how to become a better person is greater.
The most important thing I have gained from being a part of and
participating in this Mentoring for Free System is confidence in
myself and therefore knowing I cannot fail in no matter what I
want to accomplish.
We are the most important part of the product we offer.
Mentoring for Free gives us this very Specialized knowledge.
This is where we learn how To think, not what to think.

All the knowledge that ever need to build own business is within range its now being able to place such into a plan to be able to build own business and working that plan. I have learnt to bridge a number of own weaknesses that when I am unable to answer a question I will refer to own mastermind group to answer such or go looking for the answer.

For years I hung around people who only really had general knowledge, some had specialized knowledge yet it was few and far between. I now need to continue to work the plan which have for own business and amend as needed asking for assistance as need such.

Thank you to my amazing wonderful mentor Ken Klemm also to Michael Dlouhy and Willena Flewelling for your inspiration guidance and love. To the amazing Jenny I thank you for your love, your support and being the amazing woman you are. To the mental cleanse participants thank you for your amazing, inspiring lessons.

Wow such powerful words from Napoleon Hill on doing it the way others are or doing it your own way. Yet also taking responsibility for your own actions as a person when you do it your own way.

Chapter 4 Auto Suggestion Personal Lesson

Chapter 4 Auto-Suggestion

The medium for influencing the subconscious mind

The third step towards riches

This chapter reminded me about what a person says to themselves and thinks or believes will eventually come to true. However, the person must truly believe that such will happen. As go around planning our wedding with Jenny we are putting in our own creativity into such, through what we are saying we want and how we want such. Again its self-suggestion, for years I had wanted to get married however, I kept pushing people away because of an extreme hurt.

Anyway after breaking up with an ex and starting a new self-talk of “I am joyfully loving myself, I am joyfully in a relationship, I am joyfully giving through mentoring coaching and support, I have everything I need, I am very lovable” Jenny came into own life around 3 months later after starting such, from there I knew that she was meant to be; that she was what was looking for in a life partner which lead to asking her to marry me after 7 months, I just knew it was rite.

Had it not been for suggesting that I had a relationship I would have barely had the confidence to ask Jenny out nor to suggest we meet or even head down the road of getting married? Yet I knew that this was the rite woman and I was glad to meet such a loving understanding woman with a heart of gold, I had sought that relationship for years. However, I had also failed to put in that high-level positive emotion into the mix, which kept the relationship away.

Now it is time to build that business and use a strong self-talk, which know will work personally and to add a high level emotion so it is what gets me emotional. That is joy personally. I must thank Michael Dlouhy, Ken Klemm, Willena Flewelling, Brian Redding and the other fantastic mentors for their guidance love and support. For believing within me until I was able to believe within myself, the amazing mental cleanse participants for their inspirational guidance love and support. To the amazing beautiful, wonderful Jenny with her heart of gold. Thank you for your love and encouragement.

Abundant Love, Health, Life and a huge hug,
