Why do we find ourself in this quagmire of goal setting and not goal getting? Well, that's what we're gonna talk about today, so put your seatbelt on, strap down, get ready because we're getting ready to look at it from a totally different perspective. Well, in case you're unaware, my name is Johnny Mack They call me Professor. They also call me Johnny Macknificent Mack, and they call you whatever you want. The key is what you answer to and that's part of the goal setting process. You have to get to know who you are. You have to do an Inner View, look on the inside, and see who you are, see who you want to be, see who you desire to become, because any goal that you set will only become reality once you get in touch with that inner person, that person on the inside, and then you develop him. You transform him. You transmute him into the person that's capable of accomplishing the goal that you've set. You see, so many people say, "I want to be rich," and I know that you out there listening will agree that wanting to be rich is probably on everyone's mind. Everybody wants to be wealthy, to be rich, to not worry about where their next meal comes from, and to be able to take those vacations and do those wonderful things that we all get to do in life or that we all aspire to do in life, but let's be honest. When we set those type of nebulous goals of just wanting to be rich or just wanting to lose weight because there's nothing concrete or specific about them, they lose their impact. They lose their power to transform and to have any meaningful value or transformational impact in their lives. As I was studying this concept of goals because I've been looking at it for the last month or so ... I was looking at goals and it began to kind of gnaw at my spirit and I said, "What is it about goals that number one, it makes it so difficult, and number two, makes it so that most people actually accomplish them?" Now, I'll be honest. Most people set goals or they set at goals or they go through the process of goal setting, but it's such a nuanced task that oftentimes, they're doing things in the process of setting up and connecting for those goals that they're not really setting goals at all. They're just setting themselves up to go further and further down the rabbit hole.
