Shoot for the Moon

This video is titled “Why People Fail”:

Two points in particular I found interesting. First, take whatever goals you have in your mind and dramatically increase them. Really take a minute and think about that one.

Want to read a book? Make it 3.

Want to have a savings account? Make your goal having a $1million dollars in that account.

Want to exercise a little? Make your goal to do something you don’t think is possible (run a marathon, etc.).

The second thing I found interesting was the reason why he was suggesting you set your goals high. Most people fail in life because they aim too low. Most people aim too low.

Are you aiming too low?

As I have spent more time watching videos and reading on attitude and self improvement recently, I have realized that up until this point, I have aimed too low. There is nothing I can not accomplish if I focus on that goal with 100% of myself.

Getting ourselves to perform at 100% is a conversation for another email, but before you worry about that, realize that you are capable of anything. Nothing can stop you. You are an unstoppable force that just needs to be pointed in the right direction. Point yourself in the direction of something amazing.

Been thinking about a particular goal as you have been reading these emails? DRAMATICALLY increase it. And then go out there and make it happen.
