Creating Wealth

Copyright © Mario Carini
http://www.entrepreneurcircle.com/


The majority of people who work a typical job have little desire to get wealthy. That sounds shocking, but when you look deep into the psyche, you find the desire to accumulate wealth is non-existent. Too many people have learned to accept their lifestyle as the best they can have. Vision, imagination and opportunity have been squashed into a mediocre lifestyle.

If you really want wealth you have to cultivate a burning desire for it. There is nothing that can stop you from acquiring it. Desire is expressed in action, not what you say to your circle of friends or what you wish for.

There has to be a purpose, a reason, a hunger why you want to get rich. You have to WANT wealth and then have a plan to get it.

There are simple rules that, when followed, guarantee success. And one of those rules is in what you can do to help others. Helping others get what they want will help get you what you want. We are all inherently selfish, but you must learn to set aside that selfishness and see what you can do for others.

For example, if you work a typical job, putting in a few more hours, finding some way to help your employer increae the bottom line will set you on a course for a larger salary. If you are running your own business, your service to everyone you do business with will determine your profits or the lack of them.

Do you really want wealth or are you just paying lip service to a dream?

Consider these points for financial success:

· Study and emulate someone who is already wealthy. Find out what he/she did to become successful. Ask questions. If you admire and copy someone who has been successful you will become like them.
· Take a chance on life! Take risks. Those that never risk anything stay stagnant. They may have safe investments and a secure job, but they will only reach a plateau from which they can’t get any higher.
· Be prepared to do more. The people who get promoted are the ones that stand out from the crowd. They’re prepared to work extra hours. They’re willing to get more involved in their job, business and community. If you do nothing more than 40 hours a week, you are only surviving.
· Be optimistic. Life should never become drudgery. It's hard to get enthusiastic if your job is nothing more than a stagnant routine. With no excitement, no feeling of accomplishment, you can't move toward higher states of development.
· Be creative. That applies as much to running a business than it does on doing something to help the company you work for.
· Persistence. You won’t get rich overnight. Wealth creation is just one important lesson learned after another. You will make mistakes along the way, but you should keep moving forward every day. Never give up learning.
· Investing. It should do more than just provide a safety net. A good portfolio should carry conservative investments with some risky investments. Keeping all your money in a savings account won’t make you rich. Find ways to make your money work for you.
· Courage. Fear is what holds many people back. No matter what you try there is always the possibility of failure. Fear should become a springboard to success. No one ever got rich by playing it safe. Marriages today fail because neither party is willing to risk their material wealth for a long term relationship. Your fears are often unfounded.
· Entrepreneurial Ventures. A typical job will never make you rich. The only way to wealth is through running a business of your own. Opportunities for wealth comes from finding an unmet need and filling that need. You don’t need a bank loan to start your first enterprise. You can start small, work your business part-time until the business stars making profits. Join an affiliate program selling other people's products until you are educated enough to strike out on your own. More millionaires have come from running a successful business than were ever created from working for a living.

Wealth creation requires a plan. If you want to get wealthy, follow the rules of wealth creation. People look up to and envy thoses who became rich. The truth is the wealthy are no different than you or me. They just applied themselves to the rules of accumulating wealth.

If you do the same, some day others will look up to you as their role model for financial success.

Why I Don't Trust Doctors

Copyright © Mario Carinihttp://www.entrepreneurcircle.com/

There was a time when the doctor was a family friend. He could be trusted to help you get better and stay that way. I remember a time when the doctor came to my house to find out why I was sick. He’d listen to my heartbeat, take my blood pressure, look at my ear canals, look down my throat and listen as I described my symptoms. After a careful diagnosis he’d proclaim what it was I had and recommend bed rest, fluids and some medicine for a specified time or until I actually felt better.

Today’s doctor is a whole new breed compared to that doctor who made that house call. For one, today’s doctor hides behind the walls of a local clinic or hospital. Even if you can’t walk, you’re expected to drive yourself to your doctor’s residence and once you do, you are treated with the same kind of emotionless response you’d give the dead buried in the cemetery.

I don’t trust doctors for several reasons.

For one, doctors have learned to treat the symptoms and know little about preventing the disease from occurring in the first place. Yesterday’s doctor knew something about the causes of your illness and could give you some information along with a prescription to help you from getting sick again.

Second, today’s doctor is trained only to know what drugs to prescribe for whatever illness you have. He knows next to nothing about herbal medicine or the essential nutrients your body needs to stay healthy. When it comes to a comparison between your doctor and a financial consultant, the consultant knows more about his profession!

While great strides have been made to cure old disease such as polio that used to plague mankind, the medical establishment has regressed back to the Dark Ages. We may not practice bloodletting, but we do the same thing today through prescription medications which slowly reduce the quality of life until death occurs.

The fact is that the majority of diseases that plague us today are self-induced. We don't need to suffer from cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, etc when all that is needed to prevent them is a healthy lifestyle. These diseases simply would not exist if we ate whole and fresh food instead of processed; if we stopped smoking, drinking excessively, got enough rest and got the proper amount of exercise.

Third, today's doctor is under a heavy taskmaster that tells him what and what not to tell his patients. Though some doctors are well meaning and would love to do more to help, they have their hands tied by Big Pharma. The majority of medical schools today are owned and operated by pharmaceutical companies. Obviously, this leads to a bias in favor of the use of drugs and next to no training about natural treatments. Doctors who take courses are required to “tow the line” and only learn about drug treatments. Of course, once the doctor has his license to practice, he is required to keep mum when it comes to mentioning things like the side effects of dangerous drugs. They are simply taught to write out a prescription, no advice offered and only assurances if the patient asks. If the doctor tries to provide healthy advice, he stands to lose his practice!

My mother once asked a doctor why he never told his patients to supplement with CoQ10 when they take statin drugs. The doctor’s response was that he “might get into trouble”.

Get into trouble with whom?

There are no government regulations that forbid doctors from dispensing important information that can affect the lives of their patients. The fact is that many doctors today don't live up to the tenets of the Hippocratic Oath which clearly says: “First, do no harm”.

Big Pharma rakes in billions of dollars annually. Some of the best selling drugs are the worst offenders when it comes to the health of the populace. Doctors are mandated to prescribe those drugs with no concern as to what those drugs could do to the patients taking them. Add that to the fact that most people are more than willing to leave their health in the hands of doctors with a grade school education at best!

Fourth, some doctors can't be trusted. My doctor is retired now and for the good. With the way she shuffled papers in the office, I wondered if she didn't have Parkinson's. There were many other factors by this doctor that reduced my faith in her ability to treat me. I'm sure I'm not the only one. But our faith in mainstream doctors today are unfounded.

Of course, doctors aren't entirely to blame as they can only treat the effects and not the cause of the disease. There's no profit to be made to tell you that you need a total lifestyle change. A large part of the blame rests on the shoulders of a public more interested in the pursuit of maintaining an impossible lifestyle than in maintaining optimim health. Health should be number one priority. There's little point in enjoying a wealthy lifestyle from a hospital bed.

Fifth, the doctor's focus is on getting through the day. It's obvious that a doctor's life is filled with an endless stream of patients, so he can't devote as much time as he would like to properly diagnose what ails you. And that's a problem. The diagnosis could be WRONG and lead to severe complications. I wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of a misdiagnosis.

Sixth is truthfulness. Going back to my experience with my former doctor, I found it unprofessional conduct for her to submit a letter to a kidney specialist with an insertion that I had complained of chest pains when I had gone to the hospital a few years earliers. That was an outright lie, but this kind of thing, I believe, happens to the majority of patients who are not aware that their health records contain flaws put there by their doctors. A doctor should simply conduct himself in a professional manner at all times and not try to fudge some data about their patients just so they can increase their bottom line.

There you have it. Six reasons why I don't trust establishment doctors. Call me a rebel if you will, but I believe the traditional establishment, especially Big Pharma needs a complete overhaul.

That's not likely to happen until we see another Thalidomide disaster, one that will cause the death of millions of innocent lives.

Why I Don't Like Taking Drugs

Copyright © Mario Carini
http://www.entrepreneurcircle.com/

Call me old fashioned but when it comes to prescription drugs I’d rather not take them even at the doctor’s insistence. I care for my health so I always want to know what goes into my body. I firmly believe that drugs are not the answer despite all the media hype and what the medical establishment would have me believe.

By nature we are creatures of action. A sedentary lifestyle works against that inherent instinct. What you eat, how active you are will go a long way toward establishing a healthy lifestyle. Our ancestors of the past may have had shortened lifespans due to lack of understanding of viruses and disease, but they ate wholesome food and were active throughout the day and many of them lived to old age. None of them ever had access to a pharmacy, nor a doctor willing to treat their symptoms simply by whipping out his/her prescription pad.

So why don’t I like taking drugs, you ask?

Here are some good reasons:

Drugs are Invasive: The old adage that there is no such thing as a safe drug is as true today as it was 50 years ago. We all know that cigarette smoking is bad for your health. Cigarette smoke contains a plethora of harmful chemicals. Smoking one cigarette won’t kill you, but do it often enough and you will start having problems later on.

I ask what’s the difference between the chemicals found in cigarette smoke and those found in common prescription drugs? I feel there is no difference at all, despite what doctors may say about the assumed benefits. Long term use of drugs will lead to problems just as smoking will. And I’m not willing to trade one illness for the long term consequence that will occur if I take the same drug for years.

Drugs Only Treat the Effects:There's NEVER been a miracle drug and never will be. Everything in life is cause and effect. Today, the focus is on treating the symptom. The cause of your illness is ignored in favor of a quick fix to relieve the problem. Most drugs only mask the problem, they do not solve the underlying problem. The medical profession is more focused on seeing you get sick, rather than stay well as there’s no money to be made just by telling you what you need to do to change your lifestyle.

Drugs Often do Not do What They are Designed to Do: During the past couple of years the news has been filled with high school and college youths on a rampage, killing students and teachers. Remember the Columbine massacre? The two youths that did the killing were on anti-depressants. One would imagine that such drugs would make the patients taking them, docile. That’s not the case. Why should they even be called ANTI-DEPRESSANTS if what they do is cause violence, suicide and a host of bizarre actions by the patients taking them?

Take statin drugs for another example. Supposedly they reduce your cholesterol levels. Yes they do, but there’s a price to pay. Statistics clearly show that more people DIE with NORMAL cholesterol levels than those who have higher levels. Why is that?

There are two reasons: One, there are other factors that should be tested but are not, such as your homocystein levels. As there is no drug to treat homocystein levels, it is IGNORED by the mainstream medical establishment. Two: It’s a fact that statins rob the heart of CoQ10 an essential element required for your heart's proper functioning. After a few years of repeated statin use, your heart becomes weak and that eventually leads to heart attacts. So why doesn’t your doctor tell you to supplement with CoQ10? Simply, there’s no money in it! Your doctor couldn’t care less if you keel over tomorrow just as long as you keep shelling out for your prescription. Anti-depressants and statins simply don't do the job they are supposed to, but they ARE best-selling drugs!

Drugs are Dangerous: The side effects can be worse than what the drug is designed to treat. The trouble is that most patients don’t ask their doctors about the side effects of the drugs prescribed. Neither is the doctor willing to offer that advice. Just look at the history of drugs such as Vioxx, Prozac and Avandia.

Drugs are Promoted only for their Profit Value: The whole health system is centered around profits, not your health. As long as you get sick and stay sick, Big pharma can make Big profits. Ignorance is bliss where big pharma and your doctor is concerned. The best seller, Lipidor, earns Pfizer no less than 13 billion dollars annually!

Drugs have their place, but they should be used as a last resort and not the first as promoted by todays medical establishment. Honesty in the profession should be paramount. Big Pharma plays around with people's lives which would be considered a crime in any other circle. Consider that over 100,000 people die in the nation's hospitals every year under a doctor's care, taking the RIGHT drug and the RIGHT dosage and at the RIGHT time of day.

For the reasons listed above I refuse to take prescription medications.

The Dangers of Anti-Depressant Drugs

Copyright © Mario Carini
http://www.entrepreneurcircle.com/


April 16, 2007; Blacksburg, Virginia: Seung-Hui Cho goes on a rampage at Virginia Tech, killing 33 and wounding more than 2 dozen students. A search of his belongings reveals he was using anti-depressants.

April 20, 1999; Littleton, Colorado: Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, armed with knives, guns and bombs kill 13 students at Columbine High School and wound 23 before killing themselves. Eric Harris was taking Luvox.

Just two of numerous incidents where the perpetrators were sedated on anti-depressant drugs. The FDA requires SSRIs carry a black box label warningt about the risk of suicidal tendencies in young people. Such drugs confuse the proper mental functioning of the mind that leads to murder and acts of violence. Yet despite these dangers, doctors continue to prescribe these drugs on a consistent basis.

September 14, 1989: Joseph Wesbecker went to work sporting an AK-47 and killed 8 employees and wounded 12 before committing suicide. He was taking Prozac.

Of course, young people aren't the only ones to suffer the mind-altering effects of anti-depressants. Murder and violence have occured in the workplace too. The perpetrators can be full-grown adults.

November 14, 1991: Thomas McIlvane, an ex-postal worker shot 9 people and killed three at his former workplace. He shot himself in the head. He was taking Prozac.

With so many facts I have to wonder why such drugs are still on the market. Despite the mounting evidence, some states want young children tested for depression so they can be prescribed anti-depressants. No one is immune, even the elderly!

January 10, 2001: 81-year-old Anthony Dalesandro stabbed his wife with a kitchen knife while she was sleeping. They'd been married 50 years. He was taking several medications including Prozac.

Such violence isn't limited to shootings and stabbings. Arson has been one of the major acts of violence where innocent people burned to death.

April 2, 1997: Christopher Hogan and his cousin set fire to an apartment building where three people died. Chris was taking Prozac and Ritalin.

What does it take for America to realize the danger of these drugs? There are alternatives. Depression can be treated naturally with St. John's Wort with no side effects. Yet no one seems prepared to stand up and sound the alarm, except for those doctors in alternative medicine who see the alarming trend.

November 16, 2005: Frank Sanabria attacks police with a 15 inch kitchen knife. He was shot dead. He had just been prescribed Wellbutrin.

There's only one reason why such dangerous drugs are still on the shelf. They pull in billions of dollars for the drug companies that manufacture them. And a cash cow Big Pharma is not willing to give up so easily. When it comes to a choice between preserving life or making unheard of profits, Big Pharma is prepared to ignore the evidence. Clearly, by producing such drugs that cause so much harm to so many, Big Pharma is engaging in criminal activity.

April 14, 2000: Elizabeth Cooper, a respected teacher, sets 15 fires and committed a string of robberies over a two-week period. She ran her car into a house. It was found that she had been taking anti-depressants over that same two week period.

Strange how we have laws against drinking and driving. We have an independent review board that looks into the details of why a plane goes down killing its passengers, but no one looks into why such violence occurs among the users of anti-depressants or other drugs that kill over 100,000 every year in our nation's hospitals and under a doctor's care.

March 10, 1998: Jeffrey Franklin killed his parents with a hatchet and tried to murder three of his siblings. He was taking Ritalin, Prozac and Klonopin

The frightening thing, of course, is that you likely know of a friend or family member who is on such drugs. Whether you prefer to think about it, or not, you might be a victim to a mind deranged by drugs. Or maybe you have the courage to raise your voice and put a stop to this disturbing trend.

What It Takes to Achieve

Copyright © Mario Carini
http://www.entrepreneurcircle.com


Everyone wants to reach lofty goals. Some seem to reach their goals without much effort, while the majority languish, hoping that things will change for the better.

There's little difference between the waelthy and the common man on the street. Better education, being born rich, a poor background may seem to thwart you in your efforts for success, but these are often used as excuses to remain where we are, content to live in a rut.

The majority simply don’t know how to go about achieving what it is they want. They act in a disorganized fashion with vague hopes that what they want will suddenly materialize. What they don’t realize is that to reach any kind of goal in life, you MUST obey the rules that can turn your dreams into reality. The lofty pinnacle of the high achiever is not exclusive to the gifted alone. You can achieve if you know the simple rules:

1. Set goals: Do you know what you want? Everyone wants more money, but they don’t know how much. Most people dream in generalities, but generalities aren’t real. They don’t excite the senses. Whatever it is you want, you need to clarify it, make it real. That necessitates a plan. You can’t start if you don’t know what it is you REALLY want, and how to get there.

2. Control: Only you can take charge over your life. The first step to control is organizing the jumble of thoughts in your mind. It’s not easy to do. You don’t have to be a Tibetan monk to exercise mind control. Pick a subject most dear to you and focus on it. Don’t let distractions get in the way. Practice to soothing music. The very act of focusing clarifies your thought patterns. You’ll begin to see possibilities open up once your mind is clear and uncluttered.

3. Applied Effort: Getting where you want to go takes time. Achievement requires consistent effort. You have to work far more than a mere 40 hours a week. To achieve more than average, you have to work longer and harder than the average.

4. Service: Whether you’re working as an employee or in your own business, delivering quality service is key. Those extra few hours on the job will prove your devotion to the company and you will be rewarded for it.

5. Preparation: Assuming you know what your goals are, you need to prepare yourself to reach it. This usually means an education of some kind as it's unlikely you know everything on how to reach those goals. Find a mentor. If you lack accounting skills, take a course in basic bookeeping.

6. Work Efficiently: This means focusing on doing the most important tasks first. Budget your time, use it wisely. One of the biggest time wasters is the television. Unless you need to keep abreast of recent news and developments that pertains to your business, turn off the soaps and disconnect the Xbox.

7. Be Decisive: Make your decisions based on the facts at hand. High end achievers make decisions quickly and rarely change them. The failures make decisions slowly and change them often. Don’t be afraid of making the wrong decisions. Making no decisions is worse than none at all!

8. Be Creative: Use your imagination to come up with inspiring ideas. Napoleon Hill in his book “Think and Grow Rich” says that whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, he can achieve. Your mind has an infinite capacity to come up with new ideas! Those ideas can spell the difference between an average life to a high achievement lifestyle.

9. Be Flexible: Nothing is cast in concrete. Never be locked into a way of doing things because it’s always been done that way. Flexibility requires having an alternate plan when the first one won’t meet your objectives. Things change. Change with them. Stay on top of what's going on in your industry.

10. Be Persistent: All high achievers are persistent. They don’t quit when things get tough. Their goals are realistic and achievable. They’re prepared to do what it takes to reach them.

11. Be Communicative: In any business you need to make contact with someone. You need to contact those people who can help you in your business. Who shares your vision? Work with your spouse, your employer, your business partner, your lawyer, suppliers.

Achievement doesn’t just occur in business. It happens in all walks of life. Knowing the rules will help you get far ahead of the masses that have no goals in mind and only dream of that “some day I’ll” that never comes.

Making Your Site Sell

Copyright © Mario Carini
http://www.entrepreneurcircle.com

With today’s technology, selling has taken a new meaning. The door-to-door salesman is a thing of the past. Though the method of selling a product or service may be different today, the basic rules are still the same and need to be reflected on your web site.

While the Internet allows you to market your product worldwide, it lacks the personal touch that a face-to-face meeting could do. Your site has to be able to speak to your customer. With Web 2 video and audio feeds able to communicate with the viewer better, your site still has to stand out in case the viewer is on a dial-up modem and has to wait to hear and see your audio and video downloads.

A flashy website won’t always lead to a plethora of sales. Anyone can put up a flashy site, but you have to have positive and informative content. A site full of banner and text ads won't impress the viewer.

In order to keep your customer at your site long enough to know what it is you are selling, your site needs to address the basic wants and needs of the viewer. Just as the title of an add is the most important part of any ad, the first page of your site is the most important. It must meet certain criteria if your site is going to lead to sales.

It Should Fill a Need: What is it your customer wants? He came to your page looking for some kind of product or service your ad promised to deliver. Your first page should focus on that product. The viewer is not prepared to slog through pages of your site to find it. Your site should fill an existing need, not necessarily create new ones. It should provide a solution to a problem. Customers buy solutions, not the products or services.

A Basic Presentation: Your site shouldn't be cluttered with banners, text ads and too many graphics. All these can distract from your central message. The door-to-door salesman of the past sold only one item, whether that item was a hair brush, cosmetics or a vacuum cleaner. Keep your site simple, direct and easy to understand.

Persuasion: Your product or service should convince the customer that he is better off with your product than he would be with the money to buy that product. Position your site as a low-risk provider of your product and service. The customer always looks for the lowest price for whatever he wants to buy. Persuasion addressees the customer’s fear of making the wrong decision when buying your item. This should come across in your web page. Overcoming the customer’s fear means the promise of his money back if he isn’t satisfied.

Establish Trust: Building trust online isn’t easy to do on a web site. So you need to make yourself available. That means posting your email address, phone number and even your address as necessary. It’s one good way to establish a good relationship with a faceless customer. Remember that trust does not end after the first sale is made. Your are not just selling a product, you are working for your customer! That after sales service means keeping in touch once you have his contact details. Email your customer with periodic updates and questions about his satisfaction with your product. Offer new ways for him to use the product more efficiently. Offer incentives that keep him from forgetting you and coming back to buy from you again and again.

Preparation: This really should come first before all else. The salesman of old prepared for every sales call. You should do this too by establishing a web presence that projects professionalism. And that means going beyond just the layout of your site. What do YOU know about the product you are selling? If you're involved in an affiliate program, how much do you know about the company's products? What should the product do for the customer? What are the benefits? You should be able to post some answers to questions the customer comes up with even before he has the chance to ask them! You are a teacher educating your customer about your product and service.

Take the time to design your front page. It’s the first thing people see before they make the decision to view the rest of your site. Your front page is like the outside of your home. If it isn’t attractive, no one will want to know how the inside looks!

Developing Discipline

Copyright © Mario Carini
http://www.entrepreneurcircle.com

Understanding how your brain functions will help you develop self-discipline. Observe the thoughts that run through your mind. They are a jumble of incoherent thoughts. About the only thoughts that have any staying power are the worries of your day-to-day life: Job security, paying your bills, the kids.

But worrying does little to solve your problems. The problem with most of your thoughts is that they are NEGATIVE and freeze your creativity to solve problems. Your daily thoughts center around the possibilities of failure, not success.

Successful people have learned to think differently. Failure has no definition and worries have no time frame. They have learned to see beyond temporary problems and are always looking for solutions.

In order for you to reach ANY kind of success whether it’s with your job or an online business, you need to re-program your mind. You need to see potential and not barriers. Knowing that you need to change isn’t enough. You need a plan of action that will help you make sense of all that jumble of thoughts into a coherent whole.

So how can you program your mind for success?

A Defined Purpose. Focus your mind and your thoughts on what it is you want to achieve. If all you have to look forward to is a paycheck every two weeks so you can pay your bills, you don't have a purpose in life. Concentrate your thoughts on something you value most. Get a pen and start writing what you’d like to accomplish. The act forces you to focus your mind. Write down everything you’d like to achieve, then zero in on one or two of the most important and really think on how you can accomplish them.

Modes of Possibility. Once you focus on that one item, possibilities will begin to emerge. Write them down too and don’t bother if they seem ridiculous to you. You are training your mind to develop self-discipline. You will begin to see how you can actually accomplish your goals, instead of worrying.

Catching The Vision. Once the possibilities open up, you begin to see that accomplishing the goal isn’t as difficult as you imagined it. You’ve caught the vision and that will get you excited. The fog of your thinking begins to lift and you will begin to see those first steps you must take to accomplish the end result.

Catching the Emotion. Nothing is ever achieved without the desire to achieve it. That’s where emotion comes in. Emotion means developing a passion for what you’ve set to reach. Your goal becomes your cherished baby and you’ll do anything to see it grow. Some people may say you’re obsessed, but you need that obsession to develop the drive necessary to work your goal until it is complete. The desire, the passion, translates into energy, something you’ll need to see you through the difficult times ahead.

Making the Plan. Now that your idea has substance and the desire is there, you can make a real start and work a plan to get where you want to go. This is a critical stage. As we think mostly in negative terms, your mind will find all the reasons why your idea is unsound and unworkable. You need to constantly reinforce all those reasons you found why it IS WORKABLE! There will always be obstacles to any worthwhile venture, but they can be overcome. If some skill is necessary, get the proper education. Remember you are creating possibilities here, not getting mired down in negative thoughts.

Persistence. It’s something every entrepreneur needs to stay the course. Persistence starts the moment you decide to accomplish your goal. A “Can Do” attitude will go a long way toward developing the same kind of self-discipline that high achievers possess.

Apply these rules in every venture no matter how small the goal. Set a simple goal, easily achievable. Once you’ve reached it, aim for another a little more difficult. With every achievement you will build self-confidence. You will begin to focus your thoughts better and see more possibilities. Your mind will stop dwelling on why you can’t do something and give you several reasons why you can and should. This is the kind of training that every self-disciplined achiever goes through and just like every achiever you WILL reach every goal you set.
