Are you thinking too small?
I received a terrific email a while back from one of my clients stating that they had hit a first-ever threshold for the amount of money they had in their operating account. Where cash flow had been a continuous stressor every payroll, this was the first time in the history of his business where payroll was done and there was a very large balance still left in his account. Big success!
I celebrated with him but then said, “Now add a zero to your previous goal and let’s keep charging!” His reaction was, “Oops, you caught me thinking small again!” Though he celebrated his new threshold, which had been a goal for some time, his next level of achievement was apparently shooting too low in the context of what I predicted and believed for him.
Consider the last goal you set and attained. Did you immediately set another goal – and did the new goal make your palms a little sweaty? If so, then you are on a terrific achievement path – if not, you may need to consider believing in more in your potential!
