Mar 4, 2025 | Tip for a Terrific Tuesday

Are you having trouble reaching your goals?

Well, I have four questions that I want to give you. These questions are going to give you tips to help you reach your goals in record time.

The first question is, “What is my goal?”

You need to define what it is you want.

“What is the time frame?”

You can’t have a goal without knowing the time frame of when you want to reach it.

And then you’ve got to spend time asking yourself, “What is holding me back?”

Of all the questions, this is the one that is most important.

Write down what is holding you back.

If you answer these three questions —

“What is my goal?”
“What is the time frame?”
“What is holding me back?”

— Guess what?

You’ll know the answer to, “What is my strategy?”

Finding your strategy will come naturally to you, because you will have become wrapped around what you really want.

This is a tip to help you reach your goals in record time.
