Your Step By Step Guide To Achieving Your Goals!



Getting what you want in your life is actually quite simple.  We all have desires, but some people are just to afraid to actually go after what they want.  In this free 5 part video series, I'm going to help you discover what you want, identify what stops you, design your life and create a plan for getting anything you want!

I'm no different from you.  I struggled much of my life to create my life the way I wanted it to be.  It took me many years to finally learn how to design my life and then make it happen.  But I don't want you to struggle any more because you want something but can't figure out how to get it.

Whether it's an internal desire for more happiness, peace or joy.  Or an external desire for something physical like a job, a car, a house or anything else.  What you want isn't as important as how you go about getting it.

What I discovered was the fact that you can use patterns for success and getting what you want.  There are only 3 things that are stopping you right now.  I'm going to uncover those 3 things in these videos.  Then I'm going to show you how to literally design your life and get anything you want.

How To Create The Time You Need To Achieve Your Goals

Your comments help me create more posts.  Please comment below.

How can you create the time you need in your life to accomplish your goals?

This is a great question, with a somewhat disappointing answer.  I'm going to disappoint you first, and then enlighten you!

The disappointing news is that you can't "Create" time any more than it's already been created.  What?  Here is what that means.  In the philosophical sense, time doesn't actually exist.  All we have are moments.  Time is was created by people as a way to measure.  If you didn't have any way to measure time, you would just have this moment.  So unfortunately, not you or anyone else can create time.  You can only create measurements of how you will use your moments.

I know that is a bit deep, and not needed for time management skills.  However, it's important to understand that time management is a myth.  You don't manage your time.  You commit to what you are going to do in the moments of your life.

I'll give you an example.  

Do you have to manage the time you go to work every day?  No.  You commit to that time because it matters to you.  Do you manage the time you watch your favorite show on television?  No.  You commit to that time because it matters to you.  This is the same for everything else in your life.  You commit to what matters to you in the moment.  If you didn't have a watch, or a clock, you would just do what mattered to you at the time.

Why do we commit time to something?  

We commit time because something matters.  You commit time to your job because it matters that you get paid and if you don't show up, you don't get paid.  You commit time to your spouse, kids or significant other because having that relationship matters to you.  Anything you commit to doing, at any time in your life, only happens when it matters to you.

So what matters to you?  

I'll tell you what matters to me.  Helping people better their lives, matters to me.  That is why I "Create" the time to get up every morning and create ways to help people better their lives.  My family matters to me.  That is why I spend a lot of time with them.  My time matters to me. That is why I guard it as my most precious resource.  

So what matters to to you?  Only you can answer that question.  When you decide what matters to you in your life, you will choose to create the time to make it happen.  

I'd like to help you decide what matters to you.  Leave me a comment so I can help you "Create" the time you need for what matters in your life.

Why You NEED to follow Brendon Burchard!



+Brendon Burchard has quickly, by far, become my personal mentor and someone who I have the utmost respect for in everything he does.  I follow him, because he leads me where I want to be in my life, and you should too.

Why do I say that?  First, you should know that I, like many, don't know Brendon personally.  Though I am going to meet him exactly 1 month from today!  "AAAHHH So excited!"  When you meet him for the first time, whether it's by one of his enlightening videos or via some social media post, you will know one thing about him.  HE CARES ABOUT YOU!

In today's world, it's rare to find someone who is constantly thinking about "How can I help you?"  But that is Brendon, at his core. 

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail about his story, because he tells it best.  Let me just say, it moves you, so listen to him, with a completely open heart and mind.  

His passion and enthusiasm for life and helping you succeed are infectious and that can only come from a place of pure great-fullness.  You need to follow +Brendon Burchard either on Google plus or Facebook.  He will change your life!

This brings me to my thought and post for today....



What is it about Brendon, or anyone else who we are drawn to as human beings?

People give...remember that statement.  Everyone, no matter who you are, you give to others.  However, we only give what we are full of in our lives.  In fact, it's not even what we are full of, it's what we are overflowing with in our life, at our core, in our heart and in our soul.  

I'm sure you know a lot of people who are "Full of it!"  That's what they give.  Whatever it is.  So for a guy like Brendon, who is full of love and thankfulness and passion and purpose.  Someone who is full of zest, and enthusiasm and life itself, that's what they give.  

We all give to others what we are full of in our life.  So what are you full of?  What are you overflowing with?  What pours out of you and on to the world around you?  Are you great-full of something that people are going to want to immerse themselves in, bask in the glory of, and stay in forever?  

If you are the type of person who wants to make an impact in this world, you need to monitor your "Great-Fullness."  What you are great-full-of is what you share with the world.

Be Great-Full of love.... 
Be Great-Full of passion....
Be Great-Full of enthusiasm.....

Be Great-Full of life itself and you will flood this world in what it needs and when you do that, people want to live in your world, forever!

I am full of it!  Are you?

If not, I'd like to help you find it at http://YourJourneyOfBeing.com

Thank you Brendon, and to YOU the reader!  You give me great-fullness!

What can snow can teach us about mindset?

The new fallen snow is a beautiful site.  It covers over trash and dirt and creates a feeling of freshness and a new start.  Here is a way to think about using snow to create a positive life!


Snow fall is one of the most beautiful sites that this world offers us.  It reminds us of the beauty of the world around us because it covers over the dirt and the trash and makes it seem like it never existed in the first place.  It's magical and it can teach us a lot about how we can reprogram ourselves to cover over the dirt and trash of our past and create a fresh start toward our future.

Think of each of your thoughts as a single snow flake. By itself, it would be hardly noticeable. One single thought in the world of thoughts that happens in our heads every day. It's pretty insignificant in terms of the amount of thoughts we have every day. And a single snow flake can would be covered by dirt quicker than we could notice its beauty on the ground.

But let's take in a step further and imagine that 60 snow flakes were to fall in front of us. We would probably notice and even have a new feeling. We might even make a mention to someone like "Oh Look It's Snowing!" And yet still if the only flakes that fell were those same 60, it would pass and move out of our lives and soon be forgotten and replaced by the dirt and trash of the world around us.

So let's think about this in the terms of our thoughts.  If we took 60 seconds to focus on the positive things in our lives and use positive words in our heads to remind us of the beauty and possibility of our lives, it would create a positive feeling in our lives and we may even mention to someone "Wow I feel good after taking a minute to focus on the good things in my life" and yet, if that were all we did it would certainly help, but the positive thoughts would be replaced by the dirt and trash of the world around us. 1 minute in 1 day can make a difference, but if that's all you ever did, it would not impact your life.

However let's look at the compounding effect of our thoughts over time. 60 seconds per day = 21,900 seconds of positive focused thoughts in 1 year. So let's take this a step further and see how we can make a significant difference in your life, just like the consistent snow fall can make the world look like a new magical land of beauty.

Imagine for a minute, an hour of consistent snow fall, but think again that it's not something that happens all at once, it's a single flake, on top of another single flake and over time it covers what's beneath it. If you were to compound one positive thought each second for just 1 hour per day, you would think 1,314,000 positive thoughts per year! But lets be realistic about the fact that you're probably not going to find a quiet spot and focus on your positive thoughts for a whole hour each day. Yet, do you think that you could focus 10 minutes in the morning when you first wake up and the last 10 minutes before you go to sleep at night to focus on nothing but the positive things that you want to happen in your life, or the things you are grateful for, or the positive thoughts in your life?  I would bet, when you notice how this practice effects your life, you will find time to focus on what you want!

That's a great way to start to see significant changes in your life with regards to how you see your life and your future. But much like ANYTHING else we do in our lives, it not going to make a big impact if you only do it once in your life and then forget about it. But if you were to do this consistently for a month, it would make a major impact in your mindset and your ability to continue to have these positive thoughts throughout the day.

That's what your goal would be in making these small changes. By doing them consistently over time, you're creating new habits that begin to become something that you do without even realizing it any more. By focusing on your positive thoughts, you're creating the habit of doing it on a regular basis without even realizing it any more. It's the same with anything we do consistently over time, both good and bad habits are formed over time.

So how do you start? Use positive affirmations and read them every day when you wake up and each night before you lay down to go to sleep.  Use the free MindTrax tool within The LifeTrax Success Tools to create your affirmations.  SMILE when you wake up, and SMILE when you lay down to go to sleep. Say something positive to yourself when you wake up and before you lay down to go to sleep. These are just a few of the ways you can begin to make small lasting changes in your mindset that will cover over the dirt and trash of your life with beauty and a fresh start like the new fallen snow. Do it consistently over time and you'll see that the dirt and trash are no longer noticed and the fresh beauty of your life is all you'll notice.

Begin today to create the new habits in your life that will make a lasting difference in how you live. Get FREE success coaching today and have Tom Anderson personally coach you to success!

Put the S.M.A.C.K. Down! on your goals!




Sometimes I just want to walk up to people, smack them in the face and say "WAKE UP! You can live an extraordinary life!" 

Okay, so maybe I don't really want to smack them, because I'm not at all a violent person. 

However, I do want to put the S.M.A.C.K. down on them. Because most people just go through life, living a good life. So how is it that some people live extraordinary lives?
In my other post, "The ABC's Of Success" I taught you the simplest way to succeed at anything you want. Living an extraordinary life really is about the ABC's of success. Most people have no idea what "A" to take and how to be "C." However, none of that matters if you don't "B!"

What the heck am I talking about? The ABC's are a success equation and if you leave an element out, just like math, the equation doesn't work. Just like your goals, unless you do the work, having the life you want... doesn't add up! So let's get to work and put the smack down on your goals!

Years ago, "The Secret" came out and had everyone excited about their life again. People saw a new vision for their life and their belief was through the roof about what their life could be. So why is it, that most people haven't changed a single thing about their life?  I'll tell you, it's because the secret that wasn't told to you is that you actually have to do something toward the achievement of your goals in order to get what you want in your life.

"OOOHHHH, I actually have to DO something?  I can't just sit on the couch, watch shows about mansions and yachts and eat cheese doodles?  I actually have to work for what I want in my life.  That sure was a secret to me!" People said. "But what do I do? I want to be rich, and happy, and achieve my goals, but it doesn't seem like anything like that has happened for me. I guess this stuff just doesn't work"

NEWSFLASH! This stuff works! BUT NOT IF YOU DON'T! So wake up! Get off the couch and start putting the smack down on what you want in your life. Of course, you need to know what you want in order to actually work on it right? So where do you think a good place to start would be? How about by identifying what you want for your life!

Here is the 'S' in putting the smack down. Be SPECIFIC about what you want. Be specific about the steps you need to take in order to get what you want. Begin creating the life you want by being specific.

But haven't you been specific before? Haven't you, every year on new years day, been specific about what you want? Probably. But what you haven't been is motivated by your why. The 'M' is to be MOTIVATED by your WHY. Unless what you want matters to you on a deeply personal level, you won't maintain the motivation to achieve your goals.

The 'A' in the ABC's of success has a lot to do with the 'A' in putting the smack down. But they aren't the same. This 'A' is to be ACHIEVING. What are you achieving? Specific, Motivating steps toward your goal. Setting big goals in life isn't a scary thing. Especially when you break them down into smaller, achievable steps. Achieve your smaller goals, and you'll eventually achieve your major life goals.

If you have a motivational reason why, you'll likely have the 'C' you need to succeed. You need to be COMMITTED! Commitment is doing what you said you would do, long after the mood you said it in has disappeared. It's not easy to live the life you want, but it is simple! Be committed and you'll have the life you want.

Finally, KEEP GOING! The 'K' is to keep going and stay in momentum. You might fall off track now and again, but you're not derailed like a freight train, you're a human. People make mistakes and fall off track. Just because you fail doesn't mean you are a failure. The only way to truly fail at a goal, is to give up completely. So keep going!

Use the free GoalTrax tool to create your goals today!

Let me ask you a question.  If the next 5, 10 and 20 years are going to pass you by anyway. Do you want to look back on those years and know that you put the smack down on those years or do you want to look back years from now, and know that you allowed life to put the smack down on you?

I want to help you put the smack down on life! I'll teach you how to get anything you want in your life in my FREE video coaching courses.
