July 15th, 2008
At the mid part of the year I assess my goals and ask myself, “have I achieved what I had planned to? Am I on track to achieve the goals that I set at the beginning of the year? Will I achieve my 2008 goals based on what I’ve accomplished or put in place to date?” If the answer is no, it’s time to look into the mirror and ask, “what do I need to do to achieve my goals for 2008 over the next 6 months?” Most often, a goal not met is a result of an investment not made. Did I add resources to achieve my goals? Did I invest the amount of time necessary in the areas that count? Did I invest in my skills so I could become more efficient? I set my goals in three categories… drum roll please…… Life (what life experiences do I want to achieve this year, what do I want to learn, who do I want to meet with, etc), Health (energy levels, health confidence, are the clothes still fitting, nutrition, and longevity – health checkups and good practices, etc.) and last but not least, Prosperity (how much do I want my net worth to increase this year, how much do I want to make, save, what type of investments do I want to make and where, how much do I want to give back, gifts, financial contributions and time, my most valued asset). A simple way to assess your goals is to ask yourself “on a 1-10 scale how am I doing?” In June, I realized that I was on track in most areas except health, so I put in a home gym and committed to increasing my work outs (investment of capital and time). That was a simple solution… Had I not assessed it at the half year point…. I would have been buying new clothes (more expensive than the gym equipment I bought). Most solutions are simple, it’s our failure to assess and find them that cause complexity in our lives. 6 months behind us, 6 more to go. July is pivotal as it sets the stage for the remaining 5……. R

Men's Fitness is a magazine that, being myself passionated about Health and Prosperity, I respect.
Regarding the article I do want to say though that they got some facts wrong. Most reporters don't understand our companies, how they work and my intentions. So for those asking whether I will sell ViSalus, answer is NO. Is it a pyramid ? NO.
I wanted to make sure those points were being clear for all.
