I have heard agents and managers tell me so many times that they have goals, but they don t write them down. You do need to be specific and you need to have a time frame. When you write down your goals, your subconscious takes over and works on them as well. Not only that, but then at the end of the year, you take out those goals and look at them and what you have accomplished. It s very rewarding.
Some people put their goals in their daytimer or in a notebook.
I prefer to carry mine in my wallet. I take them out about once a quarter to review how I am doing. When you have a specific month that something must be done by, you put a little extra pressure on yourself and do it. Goals help you compete with yourself. Write it down, test yourself.
