One of the flaws with goal setting and achieving is that our minds are programed to think in a liner fashion from a starting point to achievement.<\/p>\n

Because of this programming, we are handicapped in reaching our goals.<\/p>\n

Think about it\u2026 You have to finish high school before you can get into college. You have to have a job before you can buy a house. Everything in the visible world tells you that you have to accomplish A, then B in order to get to C.<\/p>\n

Therefore, in your mind if you are at point A all your focus is on getting to point B. And that is the primary reason people never follow through and reach their true potential.<\/p>\n

For instance, lets say your goal is to get a new job. In order to do this you have to update your resume, look online, submit emails, interview, submit references and then be chosen. This process will take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks before you start working.<\/p>\n

And if you follow the process in that fashion you will fail to get the job you want or stay stuck where you currently are.<\/p>\n

Why? Because you are thinking is completely ass backwards! You are thinking of the end instead of thinking FROM the end. Although that wording is similar\u2026 they are 100% different approaches that will determine how successful you are in life.<\/p>\n

Thinking from the end means that before you even start towards a goal you relax and imagine what you want to be. Imagine what your life would be like if you had the business of your dreams. Imagine how some people would respect you and congratulate you on your success. Imagine how your bank account would grow.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll give you an example from my life. I am leading a team building an App and website for one of the biggest companies in the world. The project will take 18 months to complete, its huge. There are over 60 people working on it. My mental approach is \u201cwe always accomplish our goals and launch on time every time\u201d.<\/p>\n

Look if I got bogged down in all the bullshit that is happening this week I\u2019d be stressed that we are not going to make the launch date in 18 months. There are people in your office and mine that think if they don\u2019t constantly grind on minor items that the major goals will be missed.<\/p>\n

These folks are \u201cThinking of the end\u201d. They are so focused on A to B to C that all they see is bumps, roadblocks, tunnels and risks. And they will tell you about all the problems that are happening and how \u201cwe will never make the launch date\u201d.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been on teams where people have yelled and screamed during the project. But once we hit the goal we were all best friends that where brought closer because we were successful. Situations like that make you stop and think\u2026 If we are going to hit the date in the end, then why the hell are we yelling in the first place? And the answer is because we were not thinking from the end.<\/p>\n

So I challenge you right now to think of one area of your life you want to improve. Your relationship with a loved one, your weight, your job\u2026 I know there is something you want to be better right now. Now that you have that in mind the next step is to IMAGINE the perfect end.<\/p>\n

How would you feel if the end you imagine were a reality? Seriously\u2026 How would you feel? Now that you know how you would feel I give you the final piece of the puzzle:<\/p>\n

Act as if you already are that person!<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you think I\u2019m telling you to live a lie then you are correct. The only way you can become something different is to convince yourself that you are different already.<\/p>\n

Think of the CEO of your company. Do you think they thought \u201cI\u2019ll start in the mailroom and work my way up to manager and then vice president and finally become the CEO\u201d? Hell no, if they did start in the mailroom they knew and acted like the CEO from the first day. And people around them took notice that they were different and going somewhere.<\/p>\n

Your CEO was always the CEO in his mind and that\u2019s the difference. They thought from the end and then became that person. The material world had to succumb to their desire. It\u2019s that simple.<\/p>\n

I want you to put it to the test right now. Even if you are motivated to prove me wrong I want you to try it. And comment if you agree and especially comment if you think I\u2019m crazy.<\/p>\n

Since then he has worked on globally recognized brands, startups, gaming sites, small businesses and everything in-between. His most notable career accomplishments include founding and programming a lead management company. He designed and programmed a CRM platform that processed over 250,000 incoming and outgoing leads per month. In 2011 he programmed his first mobile App (Ball Park Waiter) and has been programming Apps ever since. He now leads mobile development teams to build Apps for American Express, Universal Orlando and many other clients. In 2014 he came up with an idea while using Tinder. He imagined that the Swiping interface would be perfect for mobile commerce. In December of 2014 he programmed and launched Shoe Swipe to test his assumptions about Swiping. Shoe Swipe was a huge success. He programmed Shoe Swipe to be a white-labeled App so that existing e-commerce websites could easily add their products and have an App for iOS and Android phones. In 2015 he co-founded Flip Shop Marketing and executed his plan of delivering mobile commerce Apps to clients on the platform. In addition to programming he is an expert in mobile commerce and user experience. He doesn't just follow the news and trends; he creates it by regularly blogging about trends in mobile commerce, user experience and App development. He also loves to motivate people with inspirational post about personal development. You can find his blogs on Flip Shop Marketing as well as his personal site www.jeremycallahan.com\\\/blog.
