Hey there, travelpreneur!
We’ve officially entered quarter 2 of 2022 which means now is the time to really take action towards your goals. If the year started off badly or kinda meh for you, then this is your fresh start.
For those of you in the northern hemisphere, spring is starting to bloom so this is the perfect time to spring into action (see what I did there? 😉) so that you can make things happen before all the summer festivities occur and your work takes a backseat.
For those of us in the southern hemisphere, there’s a nip in the air which means winter is coming 🐺 (any Game of Thrones fans here?) so it’s time to get things in order before we settle in for some hygge-style hibernation.
Either way, this is the time to go after those big beautiful goals you set in January.
Some of my main goals this year were to give back to my audience more (by sending this weekly newsletter full of opportunities), build a fun community (in my FB Group), and reach more people through collaborations.
And I feel like I’m well on my way…
My mindset is something I work on every day and I believe it’s an essential part of being a wildly successful travelpreneur which is why it will be the focus of April issues.
But not everyone feels like they can actually achieve the goals they set as was evident in this poll I conducted recently:
So, that will be our topic for today!
How to Reverse Engineer Your Goals for Success:
Be brutally honest with yourself. Where are you now? What needs to change? Why does it need to change? Write down your answers. Cry it out. Let it light a 🔥 within you. I always say people will never change until they get tired of their own 🐂💩!
Next, think about your future 🔮. Visualize what you want your life to look like 1 year from now. What does it look like? What do you do? Where do you live? What work do you do? Who is in your life? These are your goals.
Now, add some emotion to each of these goals. What pleasurable emotions will you feel if you were to achieve them? What painful emotions will you feel if you don’t take action towards them?
Finally, think about what tools or training you need to reach your goals? What do you need to learn? Do you need to invest in yourself? Who can help you achieve them faster?
Break down each goal into small actionable steps 👣 that you can take easily and then take action!
Here’s the kicker that will bring all these steps together… Ask yourself the following question:
"What is the one big thing that will have me achieving 'my goal' by 'date' such that by doing so everything else will be easier or unnecessary?"
For example, What is the one big thing that will have me getting paid to travel the world and create content for brands by 2023 such that by doing so everything else will be easier or unnecessary?
