In one of the seminars, the speaker shared with us on how to do sales. In particular, he mentioned about the importance of goal setting and achieving the goal.

As a newbie in any business, the first thing to do is to set a goal. Next, I have to keep reminding myself about achieving my goal. When I keep reminding myself about the goal, I will be thinking of all sorts of ways and means to achieve my goal. Then, I must draw out a plan based on my thoughts. Lastly, I will take actions to achieve my goal. Based on the results, I will need to adjust my plan accordingly so that I will achieve the desired results. By achieving the desired results, I will achieve my goal ultimately.

For example, I have set a target to buy a car from the commission that I earned from my sales within 6 months. Then I will need to hunt for a picture of a car that I really like. Cut out the picture and paste it somewhere that I will see each day at least once a day. Maybe place it on my working desk where I get to see it a lot. This will keep reminding me about my goal. Subconsciously, my mind will keep thinking of ways and means to achieve that goal. In this way, I will be able to come out with creative means to achieve my goal! Because of the constant reminder, I will also be taking actions to achieve my goal. Even if the initial results are not what I expected, I will not be discouraged and lost. This is because by seeing the picture of the car, I am reminded of my goal. I will be able to make adjustment to my plan and take corrective actions. In this way, I will achieve my goal much faster!

From this seminar, I realized that a picture of a visible goal is very important. The picture keeps reminding me about achieving it. If a goal is not that easily visible, then it has to be transformed to something equivalent. If my goal is to earn $50K, it may be quite difficult to find a picture of $50K. Thus, I will have to transform the goal to something visible. Maybe I write myself a check of $50K and paste it somewhere visible. In this way, I will achieve my goal much faster!

The idea that I will like to share with you:
Transform your goal to something visible to act as the perfect reminder!
