How I Turned a Success Study into the Life of My Dreams
By Jill Koenig
Author, Coach, Motivational Speaker

When I first set out into business on my own, I quickly learned
that despite my infinite determination to reach my goals and
create a better life, there were huge gaps between where I was
and where I wanted to be.

Someone once told me if you want to be a Success, then study
Successful people.

One of the best things I ever did for myself was join an
organization that brought highly acclaimed mentors and
motivational speakers to speak once a month. I would bring paper
and pen to take notes and a camera in case I had the opportunity
to actually meet the speakers, which I often did. Those pictures
were images of infinite inspiration to me. I cannot begin to
explain the boost it gave me to hang them at my desk and have
them to look at every single day.

The notes I took became the blueprint for a better life.

Once a month I would attend these events, network with
entrepreneurs, sales professionals, and CEO's. There I met some
amazing people, but more importantly, found so much more than I
ever expected. I found the mentors who would help guide me at a
rapid speed to the life I had envisioned for myself.

You see, I spent the first 25 years of my life living amongst
drug dealers and gang bangers, surrounded by poverty and crime.
The messages I saw everyday in that ghetto community were
terrifying. I lost childhood friends to gang shootings and my
mother was almost caught in gang crossfire right in front of our
own house. No one should live that way.

I had to seek out new, positive, empowering messages and role
models if I was ever going to make it out alive. I had to take
complete responsibility for changing my life because no one was
coming to my rescue.

It was up to me.

I needed to go out of my way to get around the kinds of people I
wanted to be like. No one was going to come knocking on my door
and volunteer to mentor me so I had to seek out my own mentors.
I was on a mission.

I found those incredible mentors and was so grateful for their
impact on my life, I vowed to pay it forward and become a mentor
too. :)

Today, there is a place where, no matter where on Earth you
live, you can have access to the kinds of world class leaders
who mentored me. Thanks to the internet, you don't even have to
leave home. You can access their genius via your computer
anytime you want. You can download the lessons to CD's or Ipods
and take them wherever you go!

My dreams come true every day because of the commitment and the
investment I made in myself at a time when I had so little to
spend. But I made my own personal development a top priority and
it made all the difference in the world.

I am now a Motivational Speaker who gets invited to come speak
to audiences at the kind of events that change people's lives,
like the ones that changed mine.

I was recently interviewed by Heather Vale, the founder of this
unique organization.



Revealed In This Interview:

The most effective ways to set and achieve your goals.

The power of visualization and visual tools you can use to boost your results.

Easy things you can do to boost your motivation and increase your momentum.

The best thing is, when you become a Gold Member, you get more than access to just my interview, you also get access to interviews with some of my most cherished friends and mentors like:

Vic Johnson

As we head into the Holiday Season and begin the new year, the
greatest gift you can give to yourself and the people you love
is for you to become a better person.

Make your own personal development a top priority and I promise
you'll have miraculous results in your life too. You can
literally transform your relationships, your body and your bank
account if you commit to this Success Study.

I am not just a guest who was interviewed, I am a living
testament of what personal development and constant self
improvement can do. I still pursue my own Success Study
every single day. I hope you do too.

If you want a better life, become a better you.

I Am Thankful For You
By Jill Koenig
Author, Coach, Motivational Speaker


I just want to say Thank YOU.

Thank you for being a friend.

Thank you for investing in yourself by reading the Goal
Newsletters.

Thank you for believing in yourself by taking action and
applying the timeless strategies I share each week.

Thank you for having a hunger for self improvement.

Thank you for being committed to growth.

Thank you for wanting to learn more, be more and give more.

There are people in 23 countries who are reading this
newsletter.

People from a every race, religion and orientation.

People with hope, ambition, compassion and desire for a better
life.

The formula for setting and achieving Goals is the same no
matter where you go.

We are all connected.

The gifts that you have to bring to the world span beyond any
religious, spiritual, economic, social or residential
boundaries. We are all human beings with a passion for creating
a better life and developing more of our untapped human
potential.

Here in America, Thanksgiving is a day when we take time out and
give thanks for our blessings.

People get together with friends and family and reconnect. The
tradition involves sharing food and TIME together.

Some people only do it once a year based on a day that has been
predetermined by the calendar or society.

This Thanksgiving, whether you reside in America or not, whether
you are reuniting with family or not, I want you to start a new
habit of giving thanks today and every single day.

You see, even in the face of your biggest challenge, you are
blessed. The only question is, are you acknowledging your
blessings?

What we have learned about human psychology is that we become
what we think about.

What you focus on grows.

So make a conscious decision to focus on what you are grateful
for everyday.

Make a list (write it down) every single day, of what you are
grateful for. Nothing is too big or too small.

Express your gratitude with whomever it applies.

If you are married and/or have children, find something you are
grateful for each and every day for each individual in your
family and share them together. Expressing your gratitude for
another is the single most important way to transform any
relationship.

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like buying a gift
and not giving it. (Expressing gratitude is FREE)

Think about what you can give to the people around you.

Your habits determine your destiny.

Create a new habit of being grateful and expressing it every
single day.

I am grateful for you.

You inspire me every single day.

Thank YOU!

Live Your Dreams,

Jill Koenig

Design Your Destiny

Quote for the day:

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

- Steve Jobs


Have you noticed around you that expectations are already starting to change?

We are heading into the Holiday Season and this is when I start to hear rumblings about how production declines and things slow down, except for the retailers who magically cash in on the droves of Holiday shoppers.

They say real estate sales drop, momentum drops, business slows, yadda yadda yadda.

That's hogwash.

It doesn't drop for everyone.

It only drops for people who believe that and buy into that mentality.

A lot of people do slack off this time of year. It's crazy.


For the rest of us, this is a time of year of amazing growth and opportunity.

This is the time that I dig in deeper and really pour it on.

Most people fall into a state of complacency between now and January 1st and then they throw together some sloppy "resolutions" out of thin air that they have absolutely no commitment to and no plan for attainment.

I am going to devote the next six weeks to helping you strategize your goals, create plans to achieve them and redesign your life. I am going to show you how to design your destiny starting today!

I am going to give your more tips, more teleseminars, more podcasts, more strategies and more tools to re examine, redefine and redesign your life!

I am going to help you make the the next six weeks a time in your life of re construction and affirmation of the life you know you are truly capable of living.

Are you in or are you in?

Great, let's go!

Let's focus the next six weeks on building momentum and creating new habits to carry into today, tomorrow and the new year. You are going to wake up energized, and hungry to seize the day. You are going to become a lean mean Goal Achieving Machine!

It starts right now.

The first step is to get serious about your time.

The Time Commandments Ebook is the foundation for arranging your life so that your goals and dreams become a priority instead of being an afterthought.

To help you get a head start on programming yourself for success starting NOW, I am making the ebook available for only $ 14.97 until November 27th. Then the price goes up. I love to reward those who take quick decisive action on their dreams.

Get it here:

http://www.goalguru.com/products

I want you to be conscious about how you spend your time over the next six weeks.

It's time to transform your life.

It begins by transforming yourself.

Make the commitment.

Let's go.

Live Your Dreams,

Jill Koenig
