[Next Level Success Step 3] Decide What You Want

Master Your Goals with SMART Goal-Setting: Insights from My YouTube Series

Fleur Allen here to help you take your business success to the next level. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the idea of setting goals, you’re not alone. But let me show you how to approach goal-setting in a way that feels purposeful, empowering, and achievable.

This post is based on Step 3 of my Next Level Success: 10 Steps to Double Revenue program, which I break down in my YouTube video series here or click the below image, here I break down the essence of setting clear, actionable goals that truly make a difference.

Why I Believe Goal-Setting Matters

Goal-setting is an essential part of business success, but I understand it can feel overwhelming or restrictive. My approach makes it simple and flexible—it’s all about aligning your goals with your purpose and vision.

When your goals reflect your values and business aspirations, they become a roadmap for not only boosting revenue but also finding greater joy in what you do.

The Power of SMART Goals

One of the most effective goal-setting techniques I use with my clients (and in my own life) is the SMART framework:

• Specific: Be clear about what you want to achieve.
• Measurable: Track your progress with tangible metrics.
• Achievable: Set targets that stretch you without overwhelming you.
• Relevant: Align your goals with your bigger picture.
• Time-bound: Give yourself deadlines to stay motivated.

This approach is backed by research and has been a game-changer for me and the clients I’ve coached over the years.

Examples to Inspire You

Here are a few examples of goals to get you started:

• "I am so happy and grateful that I have $10,000 personal income per month from my new business by 30th June 2024."
• "I am so happy and grateful to have sold 500,000 copies of my bestselling business book by the end of 2024."

Starting your goals with gratitude shifts your mindset and gives you clarity and motivation.

Let’s Get Started Together

Here’s my advice for turning your goals into results:

1. Write It Down: Don’t overthink it. The first idea that comes to mind is often your intuition guiding you.
2. Stay Flexible: Goals can evolve as you grow. Adjust them when needed.
3. Think Big: Dream boldly, but use the SMART framework to make those dreams a reality.
