Hey, welcome back. Today we're talking about why it's so difficult to achieve
your goals.
You're probably like everybody else who picks a goal and you try to go for the
goal and then you didn't get it. And you're trying to figure out why you
didn't get it. And you don't know why. You don't know why. And so, you do what most
people do. "Ah, goals are worthless. I'm not going to do this. It's too stressful, it's
too discouraging." And because you don't understand how to accomplish a goal, you
may have just totally pushed it to the side. Well, don't give up. Come on, don't
give up. Be part of the goal tribe. I mean, there's this whole movement going on in
the planet about people who set goals and they get goals. Be a goal getter. I
mean be the kind of person who figures this out. And I got to show you some
things here that you probably don't understand about setting goals and what
goes on inside your mind that you got to know. You got to know these things or
you're just going to give up like the other 98% of the people on the planet. So, here,
check this out. The first mistake people make in setting goals is they miss
understand what doubt is. I mean, how many people actually research doubt and
understand what doubt. Where doubt comes from? What it does to a person? And what
it actually is? And here we have doubt that stops us but we don't even... We don't
even really know what it is. So, let me tell you what doubt is. Doubt is the
experience of your mind giving you a report. So, let me explain.
I pick a goal. And I'm a big-time goal getter and a goal setter. And every time
I pick my next big goal, one of the next things that happen is, I will hear my
mind come back to me with a report on if it's possible for me to get this goal.
Now, I pick really big goals, really big goals. I mean, I remember the day that I
set... I set the goal that I was going to have $50,000 in one month,
right? I was going to one.... In one month, I mean, I have $50,000 come into my life.
And at this point, I was only at the place that maybe about 1,500 to 2,500
per month. But I put my vision board, this goal of $50,000
in one month. Well, your mind, when as soon as you give it a charge like
that -- to go after a goal, it does research. And it goes into your subconscious
checks out all of your skills all of your abilities and it comes back with a
report. Because that's what it's supposed to do.
It's supposed to analyze and
assess your resources, your skills and abilities to see if you have the ability
to accomplish that goal. So, my mind comes back with its report. And its report goes
like this, "We just want to let you know, Kirk that there's pretty much no way you
will ever get this goal." Now, the common person would count that as a doubt and
they usually listen to that doubt. And now, that doubt becomes the rule, the law.
And so, they don't go for the $50,000 goal. Well, I had had
enough training and understanding to know that. This doubt was going to come
back to me. Because it's true. I have no idea how to $50,000
in a month. I don't know how to do that. And so, of course my mind is going to tell me I can't.
So, when you pick a goal and your mind tells you, "you can't do that", it's
actually true. But it doesn't mean that set in stone for the rest of your life.
It just means as of today there's no way you can get it. So, if you can understand
that doubt is only a report from your subconscious and that's the deep part of
your mind that checks all your, you know, skills and abilities. It's actually
telling you the truth. You can't get it. But it doesn't mean that it's not
possible. Just on current conditions and the way you are right now, it's not going to
happen. So, when you have doubt come in your mind,
really strongly consider how you're analyzing that because if you analyze it
as a truth statement and now that's true for the rest of your life,
you're never going to really branch out there and reach out there, to accomplish
those really big goals that you want to have. I could tell you story after story
about the big gigantic goals that I set for myself in my life. And every time
my mind tells me, "I can't." And it's like, "Okay, that's fine. But I'm going to figure
out how to accomplish this goal." So, number 1, doubt is only a report of
today's current standings of your abilities and skills. That's all it is.
Let it be that way. Now, you get to action and start to learn
what is it you got to do so that you can accomplish that goal. But there's no
reason to let doubt stop you. The only reason it will ever stop you again from
this point on, is if you forgot what I just taught you. That's all a doubt is.
Get past it, start increasing your skills and your abilities and your education so
you know how to accomplish the goal. Okay, but here I got to give you some insight
of why you're not achieving goal. Number 1 is the misinterpretation of doubt.
The second one is, you may be missing the answers of how to train your brain. So, if
my brain says, "I don't have the ability to accomplish that goal." Well, I need to
retrain it. I need to up level, I need to increase the abilities I have so I can
reach that $50,000 in a month. So, what you do is, you got to hit all 3
areas so that you can have a full training to your mind. Now, this side of
the mind has to do with language. And the language inside your mind must improve.
Like the $50,000, I had to start talking to myself like, "Yeah, you know it's
awesome deal to have $50,000 in a month. It's awesome to have $50,000 every month.
It's awesome to be able to..." I'm going to start talking in a way as though
$50,000 is a common number in my life. Because if I keep walking around going,
"$50,000, there's no way. I've never had that. I don't know how that's ever going to
happen. That's not possible. If I keep slandering
that statement and really discrediting it. How is my mind ,this side
of my mind, how's this side of my mind supposed to take action on this. I must
train my mind to believe. My mind doesn't believe until I train it.
So, I've got to write out some sentences or a paragraph telling the story about
$50,000 coming into my life. Literally creating the story of $50,000 come into
my life. Even though it hasn't happened yet. It's like writing the next chapter
of your book. You know, it's like it hasn't happened yet
until you write it. So, you write yourself a paragraph about "Yay" big. Talking about
your goal and how cool it is and how fun it is that it's actually going to happen.
And what it's like to be able to have that goal. But the simple part is, if you
don't have a story or the language of having the goal, you're not training your
brain. And your brains not going to take action until you train it. The other side
is the visual. You know. So, I used vision boards. It's where you take
pictures or descriptions and you put it on your wall. And you stand in front of
that wall and you look at the pictures. So, I put on my vision board, $50,000.
The dollar sign, five, zero, comma, zero, zero, zero. And I would
look at the $50,000. Look at it and I would... As I'm looking at it, I
would imagine that $50,000 like how many $100 bills is that,
right? How many one-dollar bills is that with $50,000? But I had to
create a visual for me because that's the other side of my mind to train. I
must train my mind that this is the new norm, this is the new common, this is the
new... Just the way I live. Because it until my brain is trained, it's not going to
happen. So, I got to train this side with
language. Train this side with visual. So, over here, short little
paragraph. Maybe a couple sentences about how cool it is to the have the $50,000.
Over here, a picture of it. Picture of me holding it. You know, however you want
to do the picture. Now, this one right here,
this one has to do with the emotion side of it. First time I said $50,000, it made
my stomach sick. Because it seems so overwhelming, responsible, scary. "What do
you do with that? Oh, my gosh there's something going to steal it." So, the emotion
side of it, it always works better when the emotion
is positive. When you can add a positive emotion to it like excitement. You know,
joy, happiness, sharing, serving other people. I mean, add a great emotion to it.
So, I'm not only talking about it. So, this is the top. The way that I talk about it.
This is the way I see it. And this is the way that I feel about it. So, if I can
talk about it and I can see it in my mind and I can feel good about the goal,
my goodness. Guess what's going to happen? All three of these connect. And now, you
have began the training of your brain. because until then, forget it, it's not going
happen, it's going to take forever to happen. And you're going to get bummed out. It's not
not going to work and it's just not going to happen.
But this is why people don't get their goals, is because they don't incorporate
these 3. And they don't understand that. Now, the bottom one here, this bottom
one here is super important. Because this means, you got to meet new people. And to
consider this, you know, the reason why you don't have your goal is because you
don't know enough people. People are the stewards of all the resources on the
planet. People are the stewards. So, they... People are the ones who know where money
is, they know where things are at, they'd have connections to people, they have
ways to make things happen. So, the more people you know, the faster your goal is
going to happen. So, what does that mean? You got to get out and go meet new people.
Now, how do you know if you're doing this or not? You got to put yourself a nice
little 2 new people every single week. Which says... That's kind of on the low end
of the scale of 2 new people. Where do you meet people? Well, you go outside and
you go somewhere. And wherever you're at, talk to people. Find out who these people
are, what are their goals, where are they going in their life, what do they wish.
And I know this is like two complete strangers, right? We could start with your
family first. But then, you got to work into complete strangers. Because if you
get interested in other people's goals, they get interested in your goals. And
when they know your goal, you know their goal, well then, now you're
part of the same goal tribe. I know you guys can work on this together. But these
are the components that most people miss. That's why they don't achieve their
goals. Because of doubt, the misunderstanding of doubt and the steps
they just now shown you here. But here's the last one.
And this one's super, super important. When you lay down to go to sleep at
night and you're laying there. The common thing for your mind to do is assess
everything that you didn't do during the day. Stop the madness. No more do you go
to sleep thinking about everything you didn't do. You got one thing on your mind
when you go to sleep. You lay there and as you're drifting off to sleep, you
think about your goal being finished. You imagine the day, you imagine the moment,
you imagine the people and you just tell the story in your mind of the goal being
finished. Go to sleep at night with that being your last thought before you drift
off to sleep. And that being your last thought, guess what your minds going to do
all night long? It's going to work on your goal. And then, when you wake up in the
morning you've got a pad of paper sitting there. And you write down all the
ideas that came to you why you woke up of what to do to accomplish that goal.
You got to train your mind. And you got to rein your mind in on what to do next.
But that last one. Right before you go to sleep, take a moment and imagine that
goal being finished. That's how you get your goal. Subscribe, so I can send you
