Hi, this is John Assraf, and welcome to my very first blog. I decided for 2009 that I'm not just going to communicate with you via email and writing, but also through a video blog. And we're going to do one just about every week to help you have the best year ever in 2009. Now I'm going to talk with you specifically about how to take the seven necessary steps to achieve success in any economy. And when I say any economy, I mean that there are people who have made millions during recessionary times. That means that you can also, and I'm going to share with you an exact formula, seven simple steps that when you apply them, and you heard me right, when you apply them, you will start to put your life and your business on the track to incredible success. So let's start with step number one. And I'm going to ask you in advance if you like what I'm sharing with you. Help me build the One Coach list and the John Assaraf list so we can help people all over the world have their best year ever in 2009. Step number one, you must start with a very specific target or a very specific goal of exactly what you want in each area of your life. That means exactly what do you want your health to be like this year, mentally and physically? What do you want your spiritual connection to be like this year? What do you want your relationships to be like this year with your significant other, with your family members, possibly with your children if you have them? You've got to start off with a very specific outcome that will give your brain the exact instruction of what you want to look like. When I say look like, I want you to create very specific goals with very specific ways to measure what it looks like feels like at the end of the deadline that you set. So let's say you have goals for the end of this year. I want you to then chunk them down into what the goals are for this month, next month, the following month, and then chunk them down a little bit further into this week, next week, and the following week. So you make your goals bite sizable. You start off with a big goal, then you break it down so it's easy for you remember, inch by inch, it's a cinch. You must at your very core believe that you can achieve that goal, even if you don't know how you're going to do it when you set the goal. You see the way goals work is that when you write down a goal, you send a signal to the brain. And when you review that goal, you start to think about ways to achieve that goal. And when you visualize that goal already having been achieved, now you're getting your entire neurophysiology involved, and you're getting the universe to tap into your goals and to help you achieve them. The deadlines for goals are important, but even more important, the beliefs that you have to have about yourself. And that means you're going to need to create some affirmations, some visualizations, and some meditations to train your subconscious mind on how to achieve those goals.
