Where's your bar set?

Standards, we all have them, and we all know they should govern every move in our lives.  But how many of us actually have a written plan for how we are going to live our lives each and every day no matter what?

Every successful person has a set of standards, obviously.  The massive difference though, is they typically have a written plan for how they’re going to live, act, play, work, and excel in life.  These standards are unshakable.  They also go the next level deeper.  

One way successful people raise their bar constantly is to look at their goals and determine who they MUST become to achieve those goals.  

You can’t become the #1 salesperson in your industry, or company for that matter, if your bar is set at a level that allows you to go home at 5 o’clock, watch tv and throw back a couple cocktails.  Or you certainly won’t be fit and healthy for that matter if you standards allow you to make excuses and skip a fitness routine and proper nutrition plan.

All top athletes, top business people, and peak performing sales people have a whole different set of rules they live by.  Their personal bar:
  • Wakes them up to hit the literal and metaphorical gym an hour or two before everyone else to hone their minds, bodies and spirit.  
  • Their bars don’t allow them listen to the polluted news when driving in their cars.  They’re listening to success-minded programs.  
  • They don’t engage in water-cooler gossip.  Instead they’re finding ways to make a deal happen, improve their skills, or pummel the competition.  
  • And they don’t go home when everyone else does.  They’re finding a way to add even more value to their clients and prospects lives and accomplish their goals.
To really succeed, I mean succeed beyond your wildest expectations you absolutely must raise your personal bar well beyond its present level.  The most effective way you can raise your standards is to follow this 4 step plan:

  1. Review your current and “written” goals
  2. Write down who you MUST become as a person to accomplish them.  Make sure to write the list or description in the “I am” voice.  I am strong, I am focused, I am energetic, I am healthy, I am professional, I practice my skills every day, etc.
  3. Write down every behavior that supports your goals, how your days should be structured, and what you can no longer do that’s destructive towards your achievement.
  4. 4. Read this list every morning, and review your day to measure your behaviors and activity every night to stay focused.

Raise your bar well beyond your current limitations and your world will change radically and lightening fast.
