Morning Motivator - Creating Your Future Alliances

"The portrait of success is painted many years before its viewed."

This morning I sat with a gentleman that shared with me his ASPIRATIONS to become Mayor of the city of Nashville in 7 years. Very cool. But why tell me now?

He is STRATEGICALLY securing his future by laying the foundation for SUCCESS today. This gentleman believes that I have some value to him attaining his GOAL and by working with me early to understand his VISION and PASSIONS, he is helping to secure my support ongoing. Well played BT!

Are you PLANNING your future success today? Are you sharing your DREAMS with people that have the ability to SUPPORT you in your ACCOMPLISHMENT? Have you identified the type of contacts you NEED to make? The gentleman made a comment this morning I thought to be very poignant - "Never ask a question you do not already know the answer to." I imagine that later down the road, he will ask me for support of his DREAMS... and will already know the answer. That too, is very cool!

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
At the root of all SUCCESS STEPS, we find the idea of GOAL PLANNING. By defining your short-term goals (30 days to 18 months) and long-term goals (3 year, 5 year and 10+ year), you are able to CLEARLY see the necessary steps required to fulfill your DREAMS. You can easily identify the resources needed - financially, politically, personally, professionally and spiritually. You can set into motion your STRATEGIC execution plans with timelines to help you better manage the success accomplishment.

By defining WHAT you want... you can more easily see HOW it needs to be done.

Cheers,
Zach
