setting goals.
o Set productivity goals to keep yourself on track and make
sure you are doing what you need to do to be a success.
o Set production goals (total units sold or gross sales as a

each goal. Open-ended goals are nothing more than

o Break your goals into milestones to make them less

o Reward yourself to make achieving your goals more

of what you are working for.
o Share your goals with others who support your efforts.
o Consider rewarding yourself in advance and then working
hard to pay for your reward.
