DAY ONE | DEFINE YOUR PURPOSE
CREATED AND HOSTED BY
SARA EATHERTON-GOFF
"I believe that if you don't derive a deep sense of purpose from what you do, if you don't come radiantly alive several times a day, if you don't feel deeply grateful at the tremendous good fortune that has been bestowed on you, then you are wasting your life. And life is too short to waste." —Srikumar Rao
WHAT IS #4DAYGOALS? #4DayGoals is the ultimate, free, goal-setting course
to encourage any entrepreneur to stretch themselves, and their businesses.
And do it in a thoroughly S.M.A.R.T. way.

GoffCreative.com/4-day-goals
Your vision statement is your "dream" statement.

Your vision statement is your "dream" statement.
It's an opportunity for you to think and feel like the "end-goal" of your business is happening right now.
GoffCreative.com/4-day-goals
Your vision statement is your "dream" statement.
It's an opportunity for you to think and feel like the "end-goal" of your business is happening right now.
It's a present day aspiration and a damn beautiful one, too.
GoffCreative.com/4-day-goals
For example, your vision statement could be:
"It's 2016. I have 20 solopreneur coaching clients spread over 6 countries. Each client is earning an average of $110,000 annually. My clients are happy, motivated, and build each other up through the online community I've built for them..."

So, let's say your goal is $120,000 by the end of 2016. If you've just started blogging, have $0 ad budget, no subscribers, no clients, and no offerings, obviously that's not going to happen unless you have some really generous, wealthy family whom gift you that.
