High Value Activities are the key to achieving your goal
Identifying and completing your high-value activities is critical because they make goal achievement possible. So, let’s dive in.
The first step is to write out your affirmative goals in an “I am” or “I (active verb)” format. For example, you would state your financial goal regarding income as, “I earn $200,000 in (year)” and “I am divinely healthy.”
I often refer to high-value activities as HVAs and income-producing activities as IPAs. These activities are critical to your success.
Millionaire entrepreneurs and top advisors spend most of their time completing high-value and income-producing activities. They delegate LVAs (low-value activities) and eliminate NVAs (non-value activities).
Focus
Successful people focus on HVAs in all areas of their life, not just money. For example, they include family, spiritual, health, personal, career, relationships, community, etc., in their goal setting. They set goals and then identify and complete HVAs because they understand how critical they are to achieving their goals. Successful entrepreneurs laser focus and complete the important activities.
They do everything within their power to accomplish the HVAs and IPAs. “Excuse” is not a word in their vocabulary. Mastering this secret requires commitment and focus, and an understanding that a lot of success is boring and mundane. It is easy to think success is being in the limelight or spending millions of dollars, but most success is found in the activities you complete when no one is watching you.
How to Use High Value Activities to Achieve Goals
For each affirmative goal, identify one or two HVAs and IPAs that you must complete consistently to achieve your goal. If you need a template to set and achieve your goal, download The Goal Setting Guide here.
For example:
Goal
I earn $200,000 in (year) with ease.
HVAs
I make 25 warm calls each morning from 9-11 AM.
I speak to one group in my niche market each month.
Goal
I am divinely healthy.
HVAs
I drink my green protein shake each morning.
I exercise each day from 6-7 AM.
Identifying and consistently completing HVAs is critical because it allows you to achieve your heart’s desire.
