That's what I like to hear. And then I've got a band, Top Notch Entertainment. The classic band. Make some noise. As you can see here, the studio things today are so top notch. We are celebrating August babies. And I want you, first of all, even before I have any conversation with you, to let you listen to the classic band. This is one of the best bands to ever grace the Power Talk Show. And you are going to enjoy this. And you're going to enjoy the Power Talk Show today. And as I allow them to prepare, please go to our Facebook page. Tell me if you're an August baby. First of all, are you an August baby? Let me know. And then, what do you think is unique about August babies? I'd like you to tell me. What is unique about August babies? Go to our Facebook page at Y254 channel and comment there. But before then, let's hear from the classic band. The classic band. I'm sure you're enjoying this as much as I am doing. And wow, that's just one amazing singing. Wow, that is, I'm blown away. And you know, the NIBS College has been very supportive of my show too. Would you like them to come back? That is not sufficient. Would you like them to come back? Yes. So, because you're quite supportive of my show, let me first of all read out some few people here from the NIBS College who are also celebrating their birthdays in August. Paul and Deritum Bugua, Rosca Mungai, Kelvin Waveru, Magretue Rimo, and then Masi Wanjiro from Nakuru. Best friend of the year, who is in the studio right now, Gracie Nganga. Yeah, Gracie Nganga. All right. Then you have Chris Mwangi and Joqui Mwangi from Naivasha. Birthday from your sister Grace. And then one of them, my biggest supporters from NIBS College, Sam Juguna is telling me to wish, I don't know, come and get a girlfriend, have many friends, like Kenyan Asama too, she's more than a friend. So, I'm feeling the gap somehow, all right. So, Ruth Wamboi Nganga, all right. Sam Juguna appreciates you. You are one in a million. I guess that's supposed to be one in seven billion, I guess, but it still works out, all right. So, happy birthday to you all and to those who are celebrating the birthday today. And as I've mentioned, go to our Facebook page at Y254Channel and comment there whether you're an August baby, one, and secondly, what makes, what is unique about August babies. Now, one of the things I want to challenge you, and you know this is what I do on this show, to help you live your best life, to help you gain the skills that can help you to be competent in the world, to engage in the world in the way that makes your life more meaningful, to make you more courageous and make you face your fears. That's what I want to do. And to help you do this, I want us to discuss about setting goals. Now, so many of us are afraid of setting goals because of the previous moments that you set goals and they didn't work out or you set goals and you didn't follow through, and so you just gave up. But I want you to still remember setting goal is important. And I hope this clip that you're going to watch now is going to help you to remember and to love the importance of setting goals. I'm going to be sharing with you a how-to video. These videos are practical tips that will help you apply the themes and the topics that I talk about in all of my videos. The first video that I made was called Three Motivational Messages that will transform your 2016. I wanted to share with you a video on how to set effective goals that you will surely accomplish. In 1979, interviewers asked the Harvard MBA program how many of them set goals. They found that 84% of the program set no goals at all. 13% of them set goals but they weren't committed on paper. And only 3% actually set goals that were committed on paper and had plans to accomplish them. Ten years on in 1989, they interviewed the same individuals again. The results were absolutely staggering. They found that those 13% who set some goals but hadn't had them down on paper were making twice as much as the 84% who had never set a goal. And even more staggering was the fact that the 3% who had committed goals written on paper had actually been making more money than the 97% put together. Today's session is all about how you can make those goals. I'm going to share with you three questions that will help you reflect on the goals that maybe you've already set for the new year or maybe goals that you're about to set. The first question you need to ask yourself is are your goals too vague and are they not specific enough? The reason why I ask this is one of your goals is to get fit. Now when you say that, do you mean as fit as a model? Do you mean as fit as Cristiano Ronaldo? Do you mean as fit as an athlete? How do you define fit? Or is it just fit enough to walk up your stairs without feeling tired? Becoming more specific about the goals you want to achieve means that you're more likely to understand how much planning is involved in terms of time and resources and how you're going to make it fit into your incredibly busy week. Try to make your goals as specific as possible. The second question you need to ask yourself is are your goals too grand to be achievable? Now I'm a big believer in defining your destiny and reaching and accomplishing your goals but Bill Gates said a fantastic piece of wisdom that I want to share with you. He said that actually people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in 10 years. We always feel that we can make a bigger change quickly by impulsively acting rather than building blocks that actually be great foundations for future success. What you need to do this year is actually try and find digestible blocks of work little pieces of action that will help you effectively bring about change in small areas of your life. When these add up and build together you'll gain momentum and that will affect things in the future for you as well. The third question you need to ask yourself is are you surrounded by the right people and are you influenced by the right people? If for example your goal is to give up chocolate it won't help if you work at a chocolate factory you live next to a chocolate manufacturer your best friend loves chocolate and you're making chocolate cake on the weekends it's just not going to be possible. You need to be spending time with people who have the same goal but also people who've achieved that goal and made it into a habit. Are you aware of the little milestones that you need to reach to incentivize you daily? We need to feel inspired by our goals every day and if you're feeling that your goal is too far away or a tangible outcome is in too far a distance you need to make it closer. You need to be noticing and observing the small things the small changes that you can be grateful for that you see every single day or every single week. Make sure you know your milestones otherwise you're going to get lost. A goal without a plan is just a wish and Tony Robbins said that setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible and therefore you really need to write your goals down. Writing your goals down makes them a focus point it makes sure that everything you're doing in life becomes aligned with those areas. We have to make sure that what you want and what you're thinking about what you say and what you do are in line that's how we create harmony in our lives. I really hope this has been relevant for your goal setting I really look forward to seeing your goals and seeing you achieve them this year. I really want you to get involved in this conversation and this dialogue as we think out loud together about our minds and this world so please join and subscribe today look forward to you joining me. There's something from that clip by Jay Shetty who shares about the art of goal setting and I'd like to challenge you to live life more meaningfully and one of the ways that he has mentioned that you can do that is by setting meaningful goals that means something to you. One of the ways to achieve a career one of the ways to set on a career is to look for two things. How is it personally meaningful to me and how is it socially valuable? Because socially valuable gives you marketability meaningful gives you the resilience to stick to it even when you don't get money from it even when you don't earn from it. So those two things you need to think about and even as you set your goals. Now on a lighter note let's play some games you know on birthdays we play games and I have some friends of mine here from the Nibbs College and we are going to start with the spelling B we're going to start with the spelling B I asked some few friends of mine just a few minutes ago if they can play spelling B they were like next time so we're going to do this with the Nibbs and then next time we're going to do it with a classic.
