hey everybody im Dean Graziosi welcome to the weekly wisdom i'm here with my children
Brianna and Brody can you guys say hi
so they came to work with me today I figure why not do a video together so
what was our we have family meetings on Sundays what was a topic of our meeting
yesterday setting our goals
Oh setting our goals right there pretty cool aren't they why do you like setting
goals Brody for me because they come true
hey I think that's enough you got enough wisdom for today now so we went over
yesterday we looked back a couple months ago and both you guys set goals in
different areas your life but we set him in baseball because both of you are so
good at baseball Brody do you remember some of the goals that you set a couple
two months ago what was one of them to be a picture and what have you been
doing since then pitching and practicing
do you remember what your other one week goal was back in
It was to play a doubleheader and get all the hits... how did that work out how did
that goal go
I did a double header and I hit every ball you did you want 9 for 9 in both doubleheaders do
you remember your other goal about Andrew
what was it you can never fail to be better friends with andrew so Andrews a
kid on his team and it seemed like they separated a little and Brody was a
little sad so we set a goal to be better friends so what ended up happening
yeah yeah they had a play date they went to the batting cage together and now
they're really good buds and it made him really happy
so why is it cool to set goals because that may come true
I told them about that harvard study and I'd love to share with you the
exact details but they they followed people that graduated Harvard
you can tell how technically I am they followed a group of individuals through
Harvard and then they followed them 50 years later and the most successful
people only have one thing in common what was that they set goals that was
the most common thing they did the people set goals made more money and
happier lives better relationships so Brie, what about you why do you think goals
are important
they challenge you to work harder so they come true... love it what were some of your goals you
remember your goals from a few months ago
yeah one of them to become a picture and then what did you do after
you set that goal
um I pitched, you sure did what did you do before that first game what did we do
almost every night
yes she did she practiced for about three weeks and then told the coach
I think I'm ready and we put you in that one game and she did great what was your
second goal? to strike out five batters
when did that happen after a week after she played a game and struck out seven
batters which was awesome
and then what was your last goal on to get on 13 and what do we register for
you last week
yeah more of a travel team a competitive team so what are some new goals we set
yesterday for the future
huh to do ballet
what else keep doing softball what was that third one I think is pretty cool
and speak two languages
that's pretty awesome you're gonna be better than dad since I speak one
what about you Brody what are some goals that you put? play guitar
cool we're starting guitar lessons right? play flag football and play
baseball pretty cool stuff guys thanks so much for having spent time here with
my two kiddos
you know how many of us go through life wanting more but we never take the time
to actually write it down that the greatest gift I could give these to
there's lots of things right
I try to teach them not to stress about what other people say right if someone
calls you a name
should that hurt you know how come it because it's probably not true most the time
absolutely and and I i teach both of them that no one has the right to rob
their happiness so if you look at some of the simple things that can help us in
life setting goals most people don't they know what they don't want in life
they don't want the the pain they don't want the bad relationship they don't
want to have lack of money but they never set the goals of what they really
do want and i love the fact that I've shared with these kiddos how to set
goals they set goals and they all came true
and now they set a whole new and I'm like how can they not come true
secondly i teach them that what other people say that you can't give people
permission to rob your happiness rob your state of mind and that's not easy
you know being in a going into second grade and fourth grade I can't believe
it
second and fourth graders you know there's bullies there's people who will
say things and and try to hurt you in and I don't want them to give someone
else permission to rob their beautiful states and so today if you can take any
lesson from my kiddos from this
these cute little munchkins you gonna smile show me your teeth
well lack of teeth he lost both his teeth couple weeks ago at two lessons
today
set some goals they did they came true and they set some more and don't let
anybody rob your happiness no one has that don't give anybody that permission
if there's someone in life that makes you feel bad
put a wall up get rid of them are changing circumstances guys thanks so
much for watching you guys want to say goodbye
