Alright then, so we have our 10 yr goals and thats great. So now as they say we are going to eat the elephant one bite at a time. (no elephants were harmed in the making of this course)
So, making 5 yr goals is now getting to be a bit more specific, a bit more personal and a bit more of a thinking exercise. Please remember though that 10 years is a long time and that's 120 months or about 500 weeks or times that we will evaluate and adjust the rudder, so keep it fun and approximate.
In setting 5 yr goals we agin want to start with the red pen and write MY 5 YEAR GOALS on another page and begin with the P,O,W,E and R as before, only this time we now to to think where we want to be midpoint between now and 10 yrs. This is where we now use our brains and have a bit of fun.
Example
One of my R goals is to earning 25K a month through all my ventures in 10 years, so at 60 my passive income will be 300K a year. I feel this is doable.
So my 5 yr goal is to earn 15K a month based on my ventures, Books, WA and web, courses, speaking,
Dont just automatically be halving your goals but think a little how you will be looking at 5 years.
Example
One of my R goals is to have a condo in Colorado in 10 yrs so we can visit my daughters who will be moving home in a few years.
My 5 yr goal is to be at a point where I can begin researching this goal.
This goal then will not be figured in my 1 yr plan. At 5 yrs and the following months it will be more specific though than just 'research a condo in Colorado'
Do you see how this works....
Dont forget again..
Once you have finished you need to just run each goal through a SMART test.
Is your goal Simple, Measurable, Achievable, Reasonable and Time-bound.
Go over each of your 10 yr goals and split it down into where you will be at 5 yrs, this is fun stuff. Can you see your dream coming alive, if you can't then please contact me for help at britman33@aol.com.
You need to be on board at this point or the rest of the course is pointless.
Congrats again if you have, are you feeling good, better about life........

I have been jumping around all over the place and not accomplishing a blasted thing. So, I am bowing up and getting things organized and my goals laid out with weekly plans so that I can progress.

What is a "coppers jotter" (A7 notebook)?
In the US most people are used to sizes - - an 8.5 inch X 10.0 inch notebook is most common.
Smaller sizes/measurements are available.
So how many do they need to pass for the SMART test then?
