\nI worked quite hard, opening five or six offices in as many cities.
\nSomehow, I was stuck there.
\nI even reread my own material (!) regarding goal setting \/achieving. Surely I was missing something. Otherwise the whole concept of goal setting should be discounted.
\nI soon realized no one gets their goal until they decide what they’ll do AFTER they get it.
\nNormally we say “first things first” as in: First get your goal, then figure out what to do after.
\nWell, that’s NOT how it works. You get what you want only AFTER you determine what you’re going to do… AFTER<\/span> you get what you want!<\/p>\n
\nI opened over 30 offices in Canada in those few short years.
\nYet\u00a0I never really opened many in the States. (Four or five)
\n<\/em>And you know why: Because I never decided what I was going to do AFTER I had succeeded in the United States.
\nBecause to get your goal, see, you have to decide ‘now’ what you’re going to do AFTER you get it. Get it?<\/p>\n
