Today/tonight, right after reading this training, put away everything you have to do, get your "Dreams" notebook and write down all your plans and dreams you want to achieve in life.

No goals - no itinerary. No itinerary - no final destination.

It's like a plane in the sky flying with the pilot not knowing where to land. What's going to happen?

That's right, the eventually the fuel will run out and the plane will fall. It will fall, and this will be the final stage, where one will make excuses exactly why it didn't work out, why he/she didn't do this and that, why he/she didn't become this and that, why he/she haven't visited here and there and so forth...

What's interesting is that most people tend to blame anyone but themselves. Remember, once and for all, that everything that happens today is the result of your choices and decisions you took throughout your life.

More on the importance of planning I talk in the following training tutorial: Effective Time Management Tips

If you're reading this text-based training, then I assume you an active person. My job is to deliver or maybe to remind what you forgot to do - to write down your goals on a piece of paper.

Who can disagree with this. It is very true that having visual goals can drive your passion to take serious actions. It is even more important when you indicated that the goals must not just be written but pictured, printed and put at places that is visible to the eye. I know you said so because the things we see influence our thoughts and our thoughts informs our actions and our actions determine our destination.

This lesson is so important to me that I copied one of the pages and saved it on my desktop. Sometime ago, I wanted to ask you to show me how you make those beautiful collage photos of yours. And I am glad to see you teach them without me having to ask.

You are a good teacher. You are able to break your lessons down into simple and easy steps. So far, each training is so good and I salute you for your sense of judgement when it comes to selecting topics that matter. I am glad I added you to my network. Keep doing the good work :)

Hey Cephas,

Thank you for taking your time to leave such a wonderful feedback!
I am super glad to hear that indeed the topic was useful to WA members. Creating goals and having it visible to the eye would definitely help WA members to achieve their goals in online business. I am sure of that.

I also thank you for your kind words! You encourage me to move forward with the trainings and keep up the good work!

P.S. I have a lot of family members who are/were teachers/professors - maybe I've got it in my genes! :D

You got me laughing with the note you left under P.S. My Dad is also a teacher but I do not feel like I have it in my genes.I will however start creating some training also since what you said is a hint that I may have inherited it without me knowing. I am going to see whether this kind of genes can be inherited or not :)

I really enjoyed this. I am terrible at anything to do with graphics and I need to really step up my game with creating great images for my websites.

And of course you gave me a reminder to start with my goals for 2016. I have them all in my head but you are spot on with saying I need to write them down. What better way than a collage!

Have you heard of dream board before? It reminded me of a dream board. We did that in treatment for addiction and it has amazing results!

There is such as small and big difference between a dream and a goal. A dream is just wishing you had something. A goal is taking that dream and deciding you will have it. So take your dreams, make them a goal and put in the action needed to achieve it :)

Make 2016 the year of turning your dreams into goals and the first step can be to make a goal collage!

Hi Lynne,

Thank you for leaving such an excellent comment! You pointed out an interesting thing about the difference between a dream and a goal. Usually, we just interchange those two.

Let me know how creating a photo collage turned out to be for you :) Something is telling me you're going to enjoy this process of creation :)

Wish you all the success in 2016!! I sincerely believe you deserve it. You're a strong woman, keep up the good work!! :)
