Why you'll never hit your target (Until you do this)

Most people don’t actually know what they want with their life. 

because of that, they never achieve their goals. 

Because they never knew what their goals were to begin with. 

Every day without knowing your true why is another day of Christmas morning motivation you're missing…

Let me explain…

I might not be able to help you discover your life’s purpose, but I can share some ideas that can hopefully help you gain a clearer understanding of what you’re trying to achieve.

Going through life just letting things happen to you, hoping one day you’ll, just maybe get to this imaginary goal that you're not even sure what it is. 

Believe it or not, you’re never going to get there. 

The leading indicators any successful person says they have are ultra-specific focus and clarity on their goal. 

It's such an obvious thing that no one seems to understand or do. 

But actually understanding your goal, WHY you’ve got this goal, and what you’re going to have to get through to get there is SO powerful. 

So my goal for this newsletter is to get you to realize the importance of understanding your goal and knowing exactly what you want. 

Then, we will end with some actionable steps you can take right after this to get crystal clear on your goal and never be confused in pursuit again. 

Think of your goal as a target, and you’ve got a bow and arrow. How much you understand why you have that goal is relative to how close you’re standing to the target. 

If you know the EXACT reason why you have this goal and everything you need to do daily to get there, then you’re going to be standing next to the target and won’t even need the bow. 

But the opposite is true if you don’t know why you have the goal, or even worse, you have the goal because that’s what other people on YouTube have, you don’t know what to do to get there, it means you’re gonna be so far away from the target you’ll barely be able to see it. 

Now, be honest with yourself ...

How far away from the target are you?

Because if it’s further than you want to be… it’s your lucky day, I’m about to get you so much closer. 

But first, I want to give one last reason why understanding your goal is going to change your life…

I want you to think back to when you were in school (or are still in school).

Think back to when your parents would wake you up at 7 am, early as hell, and you could barely get out of bed. 

Cool, remember that? 

Yeah don’t we all, those days were the worst.

Now think back to your childhood; it’s Christmas morning. 

You would’ve barely gotten any sleep, wake up at 4 a.m. without a problem, and be SUPER excited to open presents. 

What was the difference between each situation?

Physically, nothing…

But, on Christmas morning you have a stronger WHY. 

When you channel this into chasing your goal, it’ll not only give you a laser focus on that goal, but it’ll also give you unlimited motivation and drive towards achieving that goal at all costs. 

So how can you understand your goal further?

Write down your goal on a piece of paper and ask yourself… Why?

Why do I have this goal?

Then once you get that answer, ask why?

Then… ask why again. Once you get 3-4 whys deep, you'll get to the real reasons why you want something. 

The answer you found is the reason you need to keep reminding yourself during your late nights and early mornings. 

But don’t get me wrong; getting to that answer is difficult, and you will want to avoid it. 

But I ask you, sit down in nature for 30 minutes, without a phone or any distractions, and just think, WHY?

Creative/ critical thinking is hard but runs the world, and there’s only one way to get good at it. 

Yeah, you could skip doing this today, and go off trying to find another more shiny thing to make you feel “productive”.

But in reality, you know that won’t help, just try it today, for 10 minutes you’ll get so much more out of it than watching another tactic-filled video, don’t judge the book by its cover, 

try it, question your goals today because there’s never going to be a better time to do it…

So keep going, ask yourself WHY Today, and channel your inner Christmas morning child to chase your dreams. 

Until next Time!
