There are two kinds of people in the world: those who love to set huge goals and those who play it safe when it comes to setting goals.
Which are you?
By the way, there’s not a right or wrong way to be but it’s key to know which way you tend to lean, so you can set yourself up for success in life and business.
Why?
Well, if you’re in the first category, you set pie-in-the-sky goals and then feel utterly deflated when you don’t hit it.
Or if you’re like me and fall into the second, shy-away-from-big-goals category, you shoot too low and don’t ever achieve what’s truly possible for you.
So what’s a smart business owner like you to do?
You declare your BHAG (big, hairy-ass goal), and also MAKE A PLAN to get there.
If you’re a pie-in-the-sky-er, keep your big goal, and pair it with a plan.
If you’re a shy-away-er, shoot for the moon, and pair it with a plan.
Because it isn’t until you declare what you really want AND make a plan to get there (and take action on that plan) that you make your dream come true.
This means…
It’s time to declare what you want (what you really, really want).
To do that, though, you have to be bold. Honest. Specific.
Do you want to…

See? Your big, hairy-ass goals are POSSIBLE.
But first you have to…
Name it! Claim it!
(Because no one else will.)
Then, once you name it and claim it…
Celebrate it!
And that’s what I want you to do right now.
I would like to relaunch website, provide group coaching and classes online, establish a subscription service and increase clientele.
My BigHairyAssGoal is to get my first 10 paying clients.
