The past two days I have been reflecting on 2016 and working on goals for 2017. I participated in a one hour class yesterday about setting SMART goals. Something I have done many times in my lifetime. Your goals should be Specific, Measureable, Actionable, Relevant and they should have a time limit. I knew all that! For 2017 I have decided to set DUMB goals. D is for Dreamer goals, thinking outside of the box. My max cash flow from my insurance agency was $252K, only thing it took 28 years to achieve that level of success. This is a goal I know I can achieve because I have! U is for uplifting. Question arises as what kind of person do I have to become to accomplish this? I am becoming a person more focused on the needs of others than my own, I am becoming an excellent communicator with the written word. Plus technology is a snap! Method is the easiest part. During 2017 I will build multiple web pages here at WA to sell products to reach my goal of $252K by January 2018. Last but not least is, Behavior. My first exercise will be a behavior changing, mental one. This is taken from Psycho-Cybernetics by Dr. Maxwell Maltz. I read the book earlier in the year and practiced his "Theater of the Mind" for a few weeks. I know to succeed with my DUMB goals I must overcome old thought, so I will be using Dr. Maltz's, "Theater of the Mind" method. I highly recommend Psycho-Cybernetics in audio book FREE from YouTube or the printed form from Amazon.

Anyone else here brave enough to set DUMB goals for 2017?
