A Start of Something New
January 12, 2010 | 24 Comments
Hey folks, how are you? I hope your have a great new year. I have been away for quite a while and many have asked if I’m “still there”. The answer is “YES!” I’m still here with you just that I’ve been extremely busy lately.
That’s what happened after I attended Anthony Robbins’ Wealth Mastery Program. Huge amount of financial knowledge need to be absorbed and have some accountability partner to keep me accountable.
Then, there’re lots of preparations to be made before new year such as finances, emotional, physical, spiritual and health preparation. Most of my time was spent on business preparation or the “business battle plan for 2010″ 
I called it the planning and strategizing stage where I do research about the new tools and channels needed for my business in 2010 and studying new investment vehicles, allocate my assets … etc.
After the new year (which is now), it’s a launching stage where I put all the plans in action, reviewing the response, measure the numbers, relocate my assets, managing new businesses and solving new problems
That explains why I’ve been quite for quite a while.
Thanks to some of the volunteers who offer their hands to help me out with some of my work and that gives me some time to write this post here. 
(I’m feeling grateful right now)
Like most of you, I have lots of great new goals to be achieved too. Here’s the thing. Setting a new goal is pretty easy but achieve it is another story.
Just look at the ratio of the number of people who set goals and the number of people who actually achieve their goals. What a sad scene.
I do not mean that setting goals is a bad thing but setting goals alone will do you no good if you do not take massive actions to execute the plan and have the discipline to do it consistently.
To achieve your goal, you need to have a solid discipline. It is not about taking massive action for a day or two but having the discipline to take massive action for a certain period of time (depends on what your goal is) until your goal is achieved.
Let’s say, your goal is to lose 10 pounds in the next 3 months.
Your next step is to come out with a plan for that. Are you going to eat less unhealthy food, eat more fruits and vege? Are you going to exercise more? Or the mixture of both.
Let’s say your plan is to eat healthily and exercise more. Then, ask yourself what are you going to eat and what sort of exercise you want to do. Is it swimming, playing tennis, jogging, cycling? With who are you going to do the exercise with? Friends? Spouse? kids? Make them your accountability partner.
After that, ask yourself, how often are you going to do the exercise and what is the duration per session?
Your plan must be crystal clear. Otherwise, forget about goal setting. It’s just a waste of time.
Done with planning? Next, taking massive action.
or in simple English, JUST DO IT!!
Do not do it for just a day or a week. Do it consistently until your goal is achieved.
Do not expect to have a lose pants after you go cycling for 3 hours in the first day. Your body needs time to response and coordinate itself. You need lots of discipline
Only consistent action can create your desired results for you.
A mentor of mine once said, “Ordinary things consistently done will create extraordinary results.”
The formula for your successful goal setting is
Goals + Massive Action + Discipline = Success
This formula is not only applicable for losing weight but also for any other goals that you set for yourself.
If you are really serious at achieving your goals, willing to take action and have the required discipline, I want you to check this out.
I got it a few years back and it really help me to achieve my goals.
All the best to you in 2010.

sir,your article has given me a deep insight about goal setting…You had helped me.thanks a TON !!!!
It’s good to know that you spent your time wisely when you’re away. After all, it’s the new decade and it’s just fitting that we look for possible investment opportunities. I like that formula of success. However, I don’t think you can quantify each. Like you should spend 1/3 of your time and effort for each one. It depends on what you’re going to do. But generally speaking, I would say 30/50/20.
You’re welcome, Jaymin
Hi Jason,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Till then,

Yes this article will become an inspirational note for us. i was worried because you disappear but now i got the idea you were busy in with ideal planning of 2010 which really useful for new year for all of us. We hoping that we all get success to achieve our goals.
Thank you all for your support. I deeply appreciate it.
I really enjoyed reading this article Raymond, thank you very much for posting. After reading this article I feel inspired to go out and try to achieve my own goals that I have set for 2010. Thank you.
Unfortunately too many people set vague goals that don’t include any of the specifics involved in achieving that goal. To make your goals more achievable, you need to break them down into subgoals of specific action you need to take. If you have some project to complete, instead of making the project completion the only goal, try making goals for each stage of the project that needs to be completed. You will much more satisfied when you reach all of these subgoals and the end goal will become a lot more achievable.
Hi Jeremy,
That’s right. Breaking it into smaller chunks helps to motivate us psychologically too.
Hi Raymond,
Nice post! A goal, a clear action plan and discipline would always complete a successful vision especially in business. As it composes of too much systems, transactions, people to meet, deals to achieve and offers to make, a business wouldn’t be that easy earning for most entrepreneurs without having brand new goals for everyday. Besides, their to-do lists has never been permanent as well!
Thanks for sharing and keep that up.
Thanks Tyrone,
It is always good idea to do something new, and new year is great opportunity to do it. In my opinion everyone who is trying new things is living for real. The worse thing to do is to drawn in stagnation. Who is not going forward – is going back.
That’s true, James.
A mentor of mine said, “If you are not growing, you are dying”
It’s true, many people set goals and after sometime forget it and set new goal. If you consistently do that that you achieve it. Good success formula. Thanks.
It’s definitely true that it’s very important to actually stick to our goals after we set them. Otherwise, there’s really no point in making goals. Unfortunately, most people don’t really take the time and effort to follow through, and then they end up not achieving anything notable.
You’re right about that.

Thanks so much raymond
Hi NBA,
You’re welcome.
Good post. I am a very goal oriented person myself. One thing I might add is that it is very important to be very specific when you are setting goals. You can’t just say “I’m gonna lose weight this year”. You have to say “I’m going to lose 15 pounds by March 15th”. If you don’t set a very specific goal that is measurable you are setting yourself up for failure.
Hi Jarrod,
I agree with that.
Thank you for sharing.
This is very helpful for the not fluent in english and without confident.
I am wondering where you have run off to? We haven;t seen any new post from you in awhile. I hope everything is ok and you haven’t forgot us.
Thank you all for your support. I deeply appreciate it. . .
