This is an important lesson if you want to achieve financial freedom in your life. You have to understand this, the level of acceptance you set in your life. Do you know what it is? If you don’t, no worries, because I’m going to explain it to you. However, let me first ask you one simple question…

Many People Set Goals, But They Still Can’t Achieve It, Why?

So can you find the answer for this question? It is because of this, our level of acceptance. You and I both know that many people set goals, and these goals will inspire them. However, most of them are not going to achieve it. Let me give you some examples so that you will be more clearer about it. Most of the people may aspire to earn $20,000 per month, but they are willing to accept earning $3,000 per month. Although many people would love to live in a million-dollar house, but they are quite willing to satisfy for a small apartment. Although many people would love to be at an ideal weight of 60kg, but they are willing to live their life at 75kg.

So can you see it now? You may set a goal to earn $20,000 a month, but if you are willing to accept earning $3,000 a month, then $3,000 a month is what you are going to end up getting. This simply because $3,000 a month is the level of acceptance that we make it a ‘must‘ for ourselves. We will not allow ourselves to earn below that level of what we believe is our minimum. This is our level of tolerance. Before you start setting your goals, ask THESE 5 QUESTIONS to yourself.

What If Your Level Of Acceptance Is The Same As Your Goals?

The minute that we think we are going to go below our acceptance level, our mind hits panic mode and we will do whatever it takes to get above that. Again, when we are committed to do whatever it takes, we will eventually get it. Those people who earn $20,000 a month are those who accept that their incomes must be at least $20,000 a month. They cannot accept that if their income is lower than that. Whenever their income level goes below $20,000, they will do whatever it takes to get above that line.

Donald Trump, the billionaire real-estate mogul, cannot accept being second to anyone. It is this ‘I must be number one’ that drives him to be the best. Tiger Woods, has very often been heard to say, ‘Why go into a play tournament unless you are going to win?’ This is why he has achieved the most number of wins in a season and is ranked as the world’s number one. (This is The Power of Dreams)

You Must Raise Your Level Of Acceptance

Yes, if you want to be successful and achieve your goal today, you have to raise your level of acceptance. Unless you raise it, or you will never do what is necessary to achieve your goals. Now, consider what influences our level of acceptance? Why is one person willing to accept a lifestyle based on $3,000 a month while another has set an acceptance level triple that amount?

Well, the standards we have come generally from our family, friends and our environment. The people whom we spend most of our time will define the standards we measure ourselves against. A research shown that people normally earn 10% more or less of the 10 people they mix around most with.

Now, I’m not asking you to leave all your friends who earn less than what you always dream of. What I’m suggesting here is that if you can break out of your comfort zones and raise your level of acceptance, you need to invest time with people who will push you up and go forward.

Think about this, if you are a tennis player and keep playing with people who are no better than you, will you improve? Hardly. What if you started playing with people who are top at the game? Sure, you will get yourself whipped many times, but it will change your standard of play altogether. The same thing holds true for every other area of your life. You need to start investing time and playing with the best on the field. This is how you will grow.

Put Yourself On The Line!

Here is a strategy that you can use to ensure you will achieve your goal. This secret is to put yourself on the line. In other words, you have to put yourself in the situation where you don’t have any choices but to do whatever it takes to achieve what you want. When you don’t have any choices to make, you will definitely find a way to achieve it.

One way you can do so is by making a public declaration of your goals. Better still, you can always get other people to involve in the process of attaining your goals. Don’t chicken out, just tell the whole world of what you want to achieve, what is your goal. This is because if you do so, you simply leave yourself no other way but to achieve it.

For example, to put yourself on the line, this is what you can do. If you wanted to become a millionaire and earn $500,000 every year, what you can do is this, you can start by telling everyone around you. Then, you can go immediately and pay a 6-month advance for a financial course membership. The idea is to put yourself in a situation where it will be more painful if you can’t achieve it.
