Taking time to read self help, motivational, business success books etc. allows you to expand your thinking. And I've starting devoting time each night having a little success talk with myself - it's calming and very satisfying to have those positive thoughts as the last ones before I drift off to sleep. Very good post and I'll be checking out your website for copywriting tips. -Sara Hi David,

And Wayne, I totally see where you're coming from, and if that works for you, then all the power to you. For me, to overcome self-doubt (which still effects me, and I'm sure to an extent it always will), I had to first set goals and take action. Then the self-doubt slowly went away with the more I accomplished and the more focused I became. Just writing goals down that really resonate with me has this effect. But that's by no means dogma or anything - everyone has their way of doing things ;) Thanks again for the comments, David To everyone who commented,

One of which is going on this blog everyday and changing my mindset. What about adding the question in with the video "thank you" to our clients? That way they can come in to our boot camp/small group sessions with a successful mindset to achieving their fitness/weight loss goals as well.

One observation I have noticed from many of my subscribers is that the emphasis of goal setting seems to on writing down ones goals etc and thinking about them without any emphasis to one's believing that they will "actually" achieve their goals. What I have noticed from my 10 years experience in strategic planning/goal setting is that many many people have such poor images and negative thoughts about themselves. People need to "BELIEVE" in themsleves FIRST in order to overcome the self doubt that many people already have which impedes their goal setting objectives. Just writing down your goals will not work unless you FIRST BELIEVE that you will accomplish them. I developed the ICPRA (Idealize, Conceptualize, Prioritize, Realize, Actualize) approach to goal setting several years that I have found to be very effective that helps clients see through the entire process and reinforces goal setting theory. Keep up the good work- Best- Wayne Remember: ”The only Unfulfilled Goals in Your Life are the Ones you Never Attempt” Hi David-

I have a feeling of awe running through me. If I can keep up this feeling, I know that I will reach my goals. One of which is to retire when I am 50. Thanks Steve and David Amazing!

I recently watched the Secret and have ordered some books from John Assaraf and Jack Canfield on these same principles, and it really works, but again it's a habit you have to get into so it can be difficult at first but keep working at it and it will be amazing what you attract into you life. Thanks for sharing. Great post!
