Here's an interesting read....

Just thought I'd share something rather interesting that happened lately. I was at the book store and I bought this book with blank pages in it to do some goal setting.

So I brought it home and wrote out some pretty lofty goals. Like I'd be earning $100,000 per month in the next 3 to 5 years.

So here's kinda the chain of events that followed:

- At the time I wrote those goals which was in early 2007 I was closing on a 48 unit apartment. That closed. Amounting to $20k per month net net in cash flow and appreciation.

- I went to look at another building I had on the go. It looks good and that one will bring in $10k per month net net in cash flow and appreciation.

- Then at the same time was presented two new buildings which I looked at and am in the process of now buying. Both of which combine will have $40k per month net net in cash flow and appreciation.

- And my business is doing about 30k net net per month.

Add it up and you get $100k per month.

So when you're setting some goals, if you already know how it's going to manifest itself, then your goals are probably way to low. They should be lofty enough so that the universe will orcastrate things in a way where it will come to you with the solution to meeting your goals. So write down some crazy figure and see what happens. You never know what forces will begin to work in your favor once you write it down.
