<p>Well, I suppose I knew deep down inside that unloading some free videos of some of the best content we’ve ever created would eventually cause people to wonder what the heck’s going on… </p>
<p>So I guess it’s time to finally spill the beans (along with another free video <img src='http://www.goals-2-go.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>For several years I had dreamed of taking what I know about creating massive momentum to achieve massive success, and working with a small group of people in a 90-day, high intensity, hands-on program to deliver massive results.  After seeing the many successes from our highly acclaimed one-year Champions Club program, I knew the time had come to take the next step. </p>
<p><strong><u>Amazon.com in 90 Days and <em>Think and Grow Rich</em> Too</u></strong></p>
<p>I have spent hundreds, if not thousands, of hours in thought and study about “the 90-day cycle.” I have experienced and witnessed a multitude of people who have achieved massive success as a result of “90-day cycles” during which they created massive momentum. Jeff Bezos took his idea for an online bookstore and after an intensive 90-day period in 1995 launched Amazon.com.  Four years later he was Time magazine’s Person of the Year.  Though he spent more than twenty years in research, Napoleon Hill actually wrote the number one success book of all time, Think and Grow Rich, in about 90 days.  So much success is generated by companies and individuals alike during “the 90-day cycle” that it almost seems to me at times to be some sort of natural law at work. </p>
<p>Nature in fact seems to rely on “the 90-day cycle.”  Our four seasons are 90 days apart. You can go from the harshest of Winter to the overflowing, abundant life of Spring in just 90 days. Most of our agricultural crops have a 90-day growing period.  From seed to harvest in 90 days.  It works with plants…and it works with dreams and goals. </p>
<p><strong><u>Momentum is a cornerstone concept of physics&#8230;and goal achieving!</u></strong></p>
<p>We know “momentum” to be a cornerstone concept of physics. And while I don’t understand physics, I know that when I climb on a bicycle, I can expect the first few turns of the pedal to require some significant effort to get me moving.  I also know that I can use a short burst of intense energy to pedal the bicycle up to speed, and once up to speed, I can relax as I pedal only enough to maintain the speed or momentum. </p>
<p>So one of my mentors, Bob Proctor, and I teamed up to coach a small group of people (49) in a program designed to maximize their momentum over a 90 day cycle and achieve some massive goals in the fourth quarter of the year.  We called the program Maximum Momentum and it would be an understatement to call the program a massive success!</p>
<p>Earlier this year I came across the recordings we made of this program along with the other comprehensive materials that participants used to achieve some of their biggest and hairiest goals.  And that got me thinking again about how many more people we could expose to the magic of the 90-day Maximum Momentum cycle.</p>
<p><strong><u>Your Maximum Momentum Begins Tuesday!</u></strong></p>
<p>So next Tuesday (Sept 23) at 12 Noon Eastern we’re going public for the very first time with the program that one participant said was the cause of a “monumental shift in my thinking, actions, and results.”  Another participant wrote to say her “90 days spent on Maximum Momentum has now resulted in the signs of a breakthrough for me.  I made the “decision” that I was not going to repeat any of the actions that had been holding me back and since that day my trades have been consistent “winners”.</p>
<p>We’ll be sharing lots more about Maximum Momentum in the next few days, but that’s enough for now…</p>
<p>Time for another video to get you ready for the best Fourth Quarter you’ve ever had.   This one’s about <strong>“How to Manage The Clock”</strong> which seems to be a challenge for more than a few folks.</p>

<p>Every Championship quarterback always knows where they are on the field of play. To reach your goal in the fourth quarter you&#8217;ll also need to know where you are on the field. This video gives some great insights, using the analogy to the football principle of &#8220;down and distance.&#8221;</p>

<p><img src="http://www.vicjohnson.com/images/DaraTorres.jpg" alt="Dara Torres" align=left hspace=10 />At the age of 41, Dara Torres is the first Olympic swimmer to compete in FIVE different Olympic games, oldest swimmer to win an Olympic medal and the first woman in history to swim in the Olympics past the age of 40.</p>
<p>Upon winning her third Silver medal at the Beijing 2008 Games, she answered a question about her age with the very telling statement, <strong>“You don’t have to put an age limit on your dreams.”</strong></p>
<p>So whether you think you&#8217;re too young or you&#8217;re too old, forget your age and get started going after your DREAM!</p>

<p>In the 2004 Olympics Korean swimmer Park Tae-Hwan fell flat on his face in front of millions.</p>
<p>As he was awaiting the starter’s gun for the 400 meter freestyle event, he ungracefully tumbled into the water.  Immediately disqualified from the race he slunk away from the platform to the dressing room where he remained for hours so we would not have to confront embarrassment from encountering anyone.</p>
<p>It is those moments when Champions are made &#8212; not the obvious moments when they conquer all and receive the accolades and admiration.</p>
<p>A mere 14-years-old when he made his colossal mistake, Park could have done what most would do.  Abandon his goal for fear of further defeat and embarrassment.   But Park is a Champion for the same reason that Dr. Robert Schuller wrote, “Success is Never Ending, Failure is Never Final.”</p>
<p><img src="http://www.goals-2-go.com/images/park_tae-hwan.jpg" alt="Park Tae-hwan Gold Medal" align=left width=250 height=187 hspace=10 />At that moment when all seemed lost, when all looked so bleak, Park made a new commitment to his success and then he went to work.</p>
<p>On August 9th he became the first Korean to ever win a Gold Medal in swimming and the first Asian male to do so in 72 years!</p>
<p><strong>There’s a gold medal waiting for you too when you remember that your failure is never final!</strong></p>

<p>I received this goal getting formula twice in the same day from two very different sources.  Both suggested I would enjoy the formula and they were very right.  As my Brit friends say, &#8220;it is spot on.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Setting Means Getting – By Tom Hopkins</strong></p>
<p>The average human being has the ability to achieve almost anything. Lack of basic capability is rarely the problem, but rather finding out what you want and being willing to sacrifice, change, and grow to satisfy the want. In the sales training seminars I conduct throughout the country, I teach a 20-step system of goal setting to help people achieve and I firmly believe it can be applied to all walks of life. Here it is:</p>
<p>1. If it&#8217;s not in writing, it&#8217;s not a goal. An unwritten want is a wish, a dream, a never-happen. If it&#8217;s in writing, it&#8217;s a commitment.</p>
<p>2. If it&#8217;s not specific, it&#8217;s not a goal. Broad desires and lofty aims have no effect. It must be concrete.</p>
<p>3. Goals must be believable. If you don&#8217;t believe you can achieve a goal, you won&#8217;t pay the price for it.</p>
<p>4. An effective goal is an exciting challenge. It must demand your best and a bit more or it isn&#8217;t going to change your ways and elevate your lifestyle.</p>
<p>5. Goals must be adjusted to new information. Adjust them down if they become unbelievable or up if they&#8217;re too easy.</p>
<p>6. Dynamic goals guide our choices. If you want it badly enough, you&#8217;ll turn off the TV and get to it. Goals will show you the right way to go on most decisions.</p>
<p>7. Don&#8217;t set short-term goals for more than 90 days. If you set a short-term goal that takes more than 90 days, you may lose interest.</p>
<p>8. Maintain a balance between long-term and short-term goals. Long-term goals tend to be hidden in a fog of the future, so have some short-term goals – like clothes, cars, vacations— to keep your excitement up.</p>
<p>9. Include your loved ones in your goals. Involve them and they&#8217;ll buck you up when you need encouragement.</p>
<p>10. Set goals in all areas of your life. Have other goals besides career objectives.</p>
<p>11. Your goals must harmonize. Whenever you detect a conflict, set priorities that will eliminate the conflict.</p>
<p>12. Review your goals regularly. Remember, long-term goals can only be achieved if they are the culmination of short-term goals.</p>
<p>13. Set vivid goals. Define not only what you want but by when you want it, and concentrate on it for a few moments every day.</p>
<p>14. Don&#8217;t chisel your goals in granite. Sometimes you have to change goals to conform to your growing awareness of what&#8217;s really important in your life.</p>
<p>15. Reach out into the future. The idea of goal-setting is to plan your life rather than taking it as it comes. Begin by setting 20-year goals. Then 10-year, five-year, 30-month, 12-month, monthly, weekly, and finally goals for tomorrow and each day for the coming week.</p>
<p>16. Have a set of goals for every day, and review results each night.</p>
<p>17. Train yourself to crave your goals. Visualize yourself possessing what you&#8217;ve set your goals for.</p>
<p>18. Set activity goals, not production goals. Activity will lead to production by itself.</p>
<p>19. Understand luck, and make it work for you. Expect good things to happen, and they probably will.</p>
<p>20. Star now. Give goal-setting two hours of concentrated through today. Then set aside 10 minutes a day for the next 21 days to review and revise. After that, two minutes a day and one hour a week is all it will take to keep you on track.</p>
<p>Try this system if you want to achieve your goals and within 21 days you&#8217;ll be well on your way to an immensely greater and richer future.</p>
