STEP 1: YOUR "WANT TO's"

Step

one is the most important step. Why do you want to “suc ceed” anyway? What does success mean to you?

I Want To...

“Put my kids through college."

"Take four vacations next year."

"Retire at 50."

"Pay off my home by 2032."

"Buy three rentals." "Volunteer in a homeless shelter 20 hours a week."

"Write a book."

"Buy an electric car and save the Earth."

Before we start crunching numbers and getting rich, you should know your "want to's." Do you want more money? Do you want more time? It's ok to want both!

What would you really do with more money and/or more time?

What are your life’s "want to's"? Why are you working?

This personal budget is a tool for you to help establish what profit your real estate business needs to make to support your personal lifestyle. Perfection is not the goal. Get close and get started.

Priority "3" is for luxury items you could live without but don't want to, like yard care, housekeeping, etc. 18,000 1,200 3,000 900 900 — 1,200 — incl. — — 25,200 10,400 — — — — 10,400 Your Your 5

STEP 11: GET SPECIFIC ABOUT YOUR 2023 GPS

Based on the just completed business plan, you now know your financial goal which is a huge step. But there's more to life than money. Besides your financial goal—which should be written in the goal format below—what are one to two other goals you want to achieve in 2023?

The following chart illustrates that fewer goals—properly defined—mean more success.

Number of Goals 2-3 4-10 11-20 2-3 1-2 0 Goals Achieved with Excellence

Source: Professor J. Scott McLagan, University of Denver Executive MBA Program

The goal must be very specific and measurable. Not vague or complicated.

The goal must have an exact time frame to achieve it.

Having too many goals causes loss of focus. You can't do everything at once.

You may need help. As you list the strategies you'll use, it may involve other people or resources.
