Happy New Year

negotiating with life on what your wage will be. Make sure you dream big during this process because life will give you what you ask of it.

Now that doesn’t mean all your goals should be huge. On the contrary, you need some small and some intermittent ones, but you definitely need the huge ones. These big goals will help encourage and inspire you on your path to success.

And you need to keep them where you can see them. Take my buddy Mike Hicks for instance. Mike is an awesome guy and a super-successful investor. He got that way by setting good goals, writing them down and looking at them regularly.

The other day I was having lunch with Mike at his office and I noticed he had a poster board hanging by his desk with pictures and inspirational quotes glued to it.

I asked him what the poster was about, and he replied it was a vision board. The pictures, he said, were images of what the end of his goals look like. Seeing them helps him envision what his success will look like. These pictures and quotes encourage and inspire him to keep moving forward. Seeing them daily, not only keeps the goals in the forefront of his mind, but it also proves to him that his goals are attainable.

In essences, this practice gives him hope.

Hope is at the forefront of all the stories we read about in scripture during the month of Abib. Remember how Yahweh gave the children of Israel a column of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night to look at and to lead them in the right direction? In the same way during this month of Abib, use a vision board to give you hope and lead you to the good things to come as you work towards your goals.
