My Specific Goals For 2010

Being that it is January, I need to get my house (head) in order. I’ve been feeling a little unfocused this past week, so I figured it was about time to write down my specific goals for 2010.

For those of you that know me, realize that I am a man of sticking to my promises. If I say I’m going to do something then it will be done. I like being honest especially with myself. That being said it’s time to do my goals, why? As I mentioned tons of times before I write down my goals here so I feel like I am accountable to anyone reading my blog. I like the no B.S. approach is has worked for me so far, so I am going to continue.

Before I post my exact goals for 2010. I want you to read what my real estate guru Ozzie Jurock sent me my by email:

“People don’t do what we expect, they do what we inspect with respect. New Year’s resolution type goals don’t work, because we have no one to inspect us. Your goals should be specific, quantifiable and measurable. Accountability is the key. For instance, what exactly does it mean when we say: “I will buy some real estate?” Make it specific: “I will buy an investment condo that cash flows by May 1, 2010.” That’s specific and measurable. And…put it in writing … and have someone inspect you. It works!”

Ozzie Jurock is awesome, through his newsletter that I subscribe to, he has guided me to buying cash flow properties in Vancouver, Prince George, Winnipeg (mistake) and now Las Vegas! He doesn’t know that he has even helped me, but one of these days I will chat with him at the real estate seminars that I frequent here in Vancouver and tell how much of an inspiration he is.

First off I want to lose about five pounds. It’s not very much, because I don’t really need to drop much weight at all. I am doing the exercise bike every day for 30 minutes and it’s working out great. I sit on my ass and watch TV while I am on the bike, so it doesn’t even feel like a workout really.
Real estate! Well what can I say about this? My major goal is to have $20,000 in invest income every month coming through real estate. I am just under half way there, not bad I know. This year I plan on buying 5 more condos, mostly in Las Vegas I think. The end date for this to happen will be November 14, 2010. Last years I said I would buy 3 condos and bought 4, 3 in Vancouver and one in Las Vegas.
Online income – Working online has enabled me to buy all the real estate I have, it has changed my life forever, no going back now. I blogged about how I made the $7,000 profit per day goal last month, well it has come down from that level. Honestly it’s pretty tough to keep the momentum going at $7,000 per day for months on end. That being said, I think a new revised goal of $2,000 U.S. per day in profit should be attainable by February 1,2010. I don’t know exactly how I’m going to do this, but the magic of writing down your goals, seems to get me super focused on hitting the bench mark I have set for myself. In this case $2,000 profit U.S per day is my new goal. I want this to be consistent, meaning it will last for months on end. I know I can do and I will do it, let’s watch it happen!

Remember the law of attraction does work, I am living proof of it.

$7,000 Per Day – Did I Reach It?

Leave a reply

In Spetember I wrote about my goal to reach $7,000 profit per day by day. The BIG QUESTION, did I reach 7k per day? I was a little worried that I wouldn’t reach my goal and in one way I didn’t. I reach roughly $7,500 gross per day about 3 days ago, and it been holding around that daily now. Profit wise that is about $5,000 to $5,5500 profit per day. I didn’t reach the $7,000 profit goal (it’s gross) however this is more than fine by me. I’m only $1,500 away from my goal so I would have to say that this is a success, even though I didn’t get my 7k profit per day goal reached. I still have shot up way up on profit from when I originally posted the 7k day goal, in September!

I need to state this did just not fall in my lap, I busted my ass finding new places to advertise to make this possible. It is far from easy to do this, even though I may make it look easy. I have never worked as hard i n my life as I have the last 10 years in web design/ affiliate marketing.

Does the law of attraction work? I think it does it has helped me reach my goals time and time and time again. Just read my goal posts for the last year it’s really incredible. From buying condos in Vancouver to daily income goals, to buying my condo in Las Vegas (where I’m blogging from), it has all come true.

Personally I believe you can do anything you want, I am living proof of that. Back when I was a carpenter/cabinet maker if you told me I would be where I am right now, it wouldn’t have been hard for me to envision it. And I still remember saying that I wanted to retire by 40 when I was still making cabinets for $17.27 per hour, now it can actually happen. I’m 40 next year, so retirement can easily happen for me. It’s unreal how all my goals have been reached….

Tips on reaching your goals:

be focused
be realistic (don’t try to make 10 million per day by next month if you’re making $150 a day right now…)
don’t expect it to fall in your lap (you need to make this happen, it’s YOUR life….)
work hard (if you are lazy and don’t put the time in, then don’t expect to get anywhere… NO EXCUSES)
know what you really want in life
be honest and don’t BS yourself (if your goals are too high, you lie only to yourself….)
work ethic (how bad do you want?)

If you really want to achieve your goals it needs to be on your mind all the f’n time! Want to loose 50 lbs, then don’t you dare eat that burger! Go to the gym every f’n day no matter what!!! Can you handle that? Working, when you don’t want to, just to reach your goal, I DO.

Who else would go to Las Vegas for a month and still wake up at 6 am and work until 4 pm , Monday to Friday daily?!? I do… I hate not being honest with myself, it really bugs me so I HAVE TO get what I want, and I do WHATEVER it takes to make it happen. Is that you?

I work first then have fun later, I always have and I always will. PERIOD. I have no clue why I’m this way, but I hated being shitty at anything I did in my life.

Do it 100% or don’t even bother!!

Enough said. Time to get back to work, then I pick up my friend from the airport.

Back To “The Secret”

Leave a reply

Lately I have been down because like I mentioned my income has dropped because of Google making it harder and harder for affiliates to advertise on their system. I don’t want to go into the whole thing because in reality it’s one of the stupidest thing I have ever had to deal with in my life. Basically Google is trying to eliminate the “middle men” (affiliates), they basically want advertising business only from actual online business, not people promoting for the online business. Confusing? Yeah don’t bother worrying about it, ha ha.

I have been getting away from advertising with Google because they have drastically dropped the amount of traffic they are giving my affiliate sites. I have gone through hoops to follow their guidelines but they just push it way to far. They may control a huge amount of the internet traffic however there are many other places to advertise online and I am in the midst of testing these other sources. Why they are pushing away someone (me), who has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly with them is crazy (especially since I truly do try to make them “happy”). Google will see once their revenues drop in the next quarter that they way treat affiliate marketers is horrible. Hopefully they will realize that this part of the customer base spends millions and millions of dollars with them monthly. In most cases affiliates spend more on promoting products than the actual product owners do. I have no clue why they are doing this, Yahoo and MSN don’t treat people nearly as harsh as Google. There is no compassion or human feeling from the biggest online ad agency.

What comes around goes around, let’s wait and see what happens.

I have found it hard to focus being in such a depressed state of mind. I am going back to my roots and have started watch “The Secret” once again, over and over. I point to “The Secret” as being my number one reason for helping me focus on what I actually want from my life, financially. I achieved every single goal that I wrote down, and some of those financial goals were HUGE.

I am now resetting my thinking to focus on what I want and not what I don’t want. That is the basic principle of the “law of attraction”. Controlling how you feel is one of the most important things that you will ever learn. It worked for me and now it will work again. I don’t want to ramble on and on about this. All I know is that it does work, and I am living proof. Even though I get into these depressed moods lately, I knew in the back of my mind about “law of attraction” I just forgot about it the last while. I am already changing that once again. I don’t want to be the victim anymore, so fuck that, it’s time to start make even more monies online.

The Secret To Feeling Great, When You Feel Like Crap

2 Replies

I have written about the power of positive thinking and “The Secret” in previous posts last year. I first heard about the secret through my friend Gianni, and then I saw it Oprah where it exploded (anything Oprah recommends explodes). I kind of forgot about “The Secret” off and on in the last few months. A few days back I was still feeling kind crummy because of the drop in my income because of a certain search engines policies changing.

Anyways I guess I must have signed up to a mailing list of “The Secret“. A few days back checking my email and the perfect email came at at me at the best time (when I was feeling sh*tty). After reading the email it changed my mood and my perspective 100% and since then I have been feeling way better and much more productive. When you feel lousy you can’t focus and be productive, for me anyways it’s pretty tough. I needed to snap out of my depressed mood and this was the best thing to happen to me at that exact moment in my life.

I still have the email and I plan on printing it out for future use, if I need it. But I am also going to paste it below, so I can have it on my blog to look at anytime I need to. You may not believe in the power of positive thinking and the “law of attraction“, but let me ask you this. When you feel like hell do you feel like doing anything productive? I don’t and I doubt you do either. You need something to help you “snap out” of that negative attitude and get back on your feet. The Secret does just that, for me anways…

A Secret Scrolls message from Rhonda Byrne Creator of The Secret

Be in Joy now and everything will change

In the moment that I discovered The Secret I realized that I had been living my entire life backwards. If things were good in my life, I was happy. If things were difficult in my life and everything was going wrong, I was stressed and miserable. In my ignorance, I had been misusing the law of attraction all of my life. But all of that changed when I had the knowledge of The Secret.

To live in accordance with The Secret and the most powerful law in the Universe, we must be in Joy first – and then everything will change. To live our lives by emotionally reacting to what is happening outside of us is misusing the law! As we react with negative emotion to any difficulties, we attract more negativity into our lives. We cannot defy the law of attraction, which operates on the most microscopic levels of vibration, and with absolute exactitude.

You must be in Joy first. And then your life will change into Joy.

Difficult times are the greatest opportunities in disguise. When we face difficult times we have to put in determined work to get ourselves into Joy. But let me tell you, when you can get yourself into Joy despite what is happening around you, your life must change – it’s the law!

In addition, as you become Joy in difficult times you are becoming the master of your emotions, the master of your life, and the master of the law of attraction. Difficult times are your greatest opportunity to practice yourself into Joy.

Of course if your life is going along swimmingly then it is very easy to be in Joy. During those times your Joy is most likely a reaction to the good times. But the magnificence and the power that you really have within you will be seen when you can be in Joy during difficult times. It is then that you will see the true power that you have within you, because as you hold to Joy, you will shift all the energies of the Universe, and your life and your world will change.

The cause of everything is within you, and the effect is what you experience in your life. You have the power within you to change everything by putting yourself in Joy. You can change everything so easily by becoming Joy first! And nothing can change until you get yourself in Joy, because that is the law of attraction. Like attracts like! The energy of Joy attracts energy of Joy!

Do whatever it takes to find your Joy, and then keep yourself in it no matter what. Keep ramping up your level of Joy every day. There is no limit to the levels of Joy you can reach. You will see change to the degree of Joy that you can attain and maintain. The higher the Joy you can create within you, the more spectacular the change, and the higher the Joy, the faster the change. Once you get yourself in Joy it is easy to maintain it, because your emanation of Joy attracts more Joy. The law of attraction will continually send you more feelings of Joy.

You cannot criticize or blame or complain when you are in Joy. You cannot be afraid when you are in Joy. You cannot speak negatively when you are in Joy. You cannot harm another when you are in Joy. Negativity cannot reach you when you are in Joy.

When you are in Joy you are compassionate. When you are in Joy you are considerate and caring. When you are in Joy you love others. When you are in Joy you appreciate everything. When you are in Joy you are in love with the world, and the Universe is in love with you.

Be in Joy. Seek it with all of your heart, and you will find it.

May the Joy be with you,
Rhonda Byrne

The Secret... bringing Joy to billions

That’s the email in full, pretty powerful stuff if you ask me. Since reading that email I feel better and work better. I have tons of ideas on how to get things going, and I am already getting my income back up. You need a good attitude to move forward in life and an email like this is one way to “keep going”. Thankyou Rhonda Byrne, you have perfect timing…

When Life Punches You In The Face, Then Fight Back

Leave a reply

After venting about my problems in my last post, today I feel a renewed sense of energy today. For those who know me, they know I can bitch and whine, then I just get back into it. For some reason I feel great today, even with the recent pitfalls. But if you can’t get back up when life punches you in the face you’re not much of a man if you ask me. Having pitfalls makes me stronger. Every time something like this happens to me, I get back stronger and make even more money. Maybe that is why I am soo excited? I guess that ‘s the reason I feel revived, because I know I am going to make even more money very soon. It’s a weird cycle in my life, when sh*t happens it ALWAYS works out for the better. It’s strange but oh so true scenario in my life.

Maybe it’s just the way I view life, but things always get better for me after they dip. So let’s get this day started and see how great it will be… And if you’re the kind of person to look at the dark side of life, you are doing yourself a huge disservice. When you are down and out, how can you possibly move forward? I will tell, YOU CAN’T! Cry for an hour then work hard after that. Get your spirit back and run with the bulls. Don’t be a wimp, have balls and get it going!

If you’re life is hard, give it the middle finger and tell yourself you can and will succeed. You have no choice but to succeed, it’s you life and you need to control it the way you want it to turn out. Think of your life as a school bus and you are the driver. You need to control it, speed up when it’s needed and put the brakes when you have to. If you need to make detour to get to where you are going, then do it. You are in control of your life, so make damn sure you like the view, if not then change the course of your life.

You have only one life, so live it the way you want to ever single day of it.
