I want to tell you about 3 questions to ask yourself every single day that empower you to achieve your goals.

Ask yourself these 3 questions daily and you will wake up motivated, and enjoy days of monstrous productivity.

Here is the first question:

Q1: “What did I achieve today?”

Having an answer to question 1 is vital.

If you don’t have an answer then you have a problem.

Define a solution and implement it and ask again tomorrow.

Q2: “What new things did I learn today?”

You’ve heard the saying “you learn something new every day.” And it’s true.

But are you crystal clear what you learned yesterday?

I doubt you are unless you are a complete genius or if you asked yourself this question last night.

Q3: “What am I doing tomorrow?”

If you had to drive from New York to Los Angeles in the shortest amount of time, would you set out without a map?

You would if you were a crackpot.

But you’re not a crackpot because you are reading this blog post.

So, before tomorrow begins know how are you going to get up, what you’re going to do where, what number of things you are going to do and how.

The best way to record your answers to these 3 crucial questions is to use a journal. I know it sounds simple but that’s because it is.

All of the mega successful people I know write journals and all of the pumped up noisy nobodies I know never get around to keeping one.

So ensure you have a journal, and when you do answer these 3 questions in it daily. And you will get to where you want to be.

This was a guest post from Bye! Bye! Procrastination.

(Andrea interjects: Jeremy is way cool and after saying that I would be one of his top 3 guest posts for his site, I naturally made him write for me! (some sly marketing there Jeremy!).. ok, what I wanted to say.. Jeremy just launched a new site, where he and his partner are letting you watch them as they unfold a business.. before your eyes… Definitely check it out!)
 
Ever catch yourself trying to figure out how someone else is making their money, and wishing you knew their secrets or strategies?
 
You might think they’re better at generating leads, working out better partnerships, or writing better sales pitches. Then you find yourself trying to copy them.
 
And nobody notices you. Or worse, people notice that you’re “just like those other guys”.
 
While it’s great to emulate those who are successful, it’s also up to you to think, build, and create for yourself. The best way to do that is not to look at other marketers, but to look at the market.
 
BECOME AN I-WANT-YOU MARKETER
 

It’s crazy, but the less you focus on other’s strategies and success, and more on how to communicate with your market, the more you’ll start to create your own identity, and the faster you will become known for “thinking outside the box”.
 
Along with this approach will come more money, more understanding, and a tighter grip on your positioning.
 
Soon, you will notice the me-toos copying you.
 
Seriously, which operation do you think will last longer and be more valuable to you and your market: the one you copy from other marketers, or the one you create for your customers?
