The Markets Continue To Advance 2 wks Into 2018

The US markets continues to sustain it's record breaking momentum. Rising almost 1% this week, 27k on the DOW Jones $25,803.19  +228.86 (+0.89%) will surely present itself in a timely manner. 

Despite interest rate worries earlier in the week, the S&P 500 had it 7th straight week of gains @ $2,786.24  +18.68 (+0.67%).  While the Nasdaq advanced $7,261.06  +49.28 (+0.68%) and the Russell 2000 inched upward of  $1,591.97  +5.18 (+0.33%).  

In other financial news, experts believe the 1st half of 2018 will continue in a strong manner on the heels of  4th quarter reports due out within the next few weeks. Starting with banking giant, JPMorgan Chase surpassing earnings expectations.

Boeing Co. (BA), perhaps it's their concept hyper-sonic aircraft design, maybe the future in unmanned cargo vehicles or in fact just the upswing in final orders in late December. With that combination, could explain Boeing's strong week end finish @ $335.11 +6.99 (2.13%)  

The social media giant Facebook Inc. (FB) dipped -8.40 (4.40%) to $179.37 after announcing changes to their News-feed. These changes, will stream more personal news-feed whether than brands. Which in turn may result in less time being spend on the site.

Gold, natural gas & commodities all enjoyed a boost this week as well. 

Investors are becoming a bit more cautious as they look for a more volatile market in the near future. The assistance of the 2017 tax cuts has continued to improve economic growth and corporate earnings, in turn should fortify decent growth well into 2018.

 The "2018 Wehit "Pick & Track" chart will be my own personal top 16 pick that I have an interest in. These picks, I will post as of this posting several times a week on their progress.
They are a variation of biotech, technology, cannabis and cryptocurrency entities. I am watching the performance of these stocks as part of an on-going research into these industries in 2018. Again, these are of interest to @wehit and are in no way a recommendation.

Game On - 2018 Is Now In Play.....Get Access, Get Results!

Goal-Setter,

Ok, grab your coat and let's run out the door. We're not sure where we will go. Guess we will figure it out along the way. 

Not really how you want to start anything......right? So why would we go into the new year without a clear-cut plan.

THE FACT IS...

It's irresponsible to start 2018 unfocused, unprepared, and uncommitted. Yet, that is going to be the reality for far too many. But it does not have to be that way for you.

1. Are your goals set?
2. Are your plans in place?
3. Are you committed to seeing them through to the end?

This is going to be a game changer for you because you're going to remind yourself that you were not put on this earth to squeak by, to break even or to live small.


You should first know that you are here to do great things.
Maybe you want to double the size of your client base, or just want to get your health and finances under better control.

Great companies, lives, and families are built around superior execution skills. The better you execute, the better you perform, and the bigger the challenges you can take on. It’s that simple.

Making big things happen in your life and career often comes down to one key thing, and that is...ACCESS

It’s about getting access to the people, ideas, and strategies that will help you succeed and catapult your life to a whole
new level.

Steve Jobs said something that is brilliant:

He said that you have to go out and expose yourself to the best of what others have done, and then bring some of it back and add it to what you’re doing.

Investing many years finding, meeting, interviewing & learning from some of the top business-growth minds in the world. And when it comes to the subject of goals
and getting BIG RESULTS FAST...the one mind you'll want access to is Gary Ryan Blair.

Gary is the "go to (Goals) guy" for everyone from the Navy SEALS and NY Knicks, to more than 60% of the Fortune 500 companies.

He just opened enrollment for the 100 Day Challenge...and I highly recommend that you check it out right now.

If you want to make big things happen in 2018, then you need to check out this extraordinary program.

The Importance Of How You Execute the First 100 Days

To the best year ever,

P.S. 

Here's a little extra $$$Bonus$$$

If anyone is SERIOUS about accomplishing great things this year, they'd be wise to come out of  the starting gate fast, focused and fired up by making full use of the first 100 days.

Gary has created the most intense goal-setting program on the planet. It's all about getting massive results quickly, and starting the year fast.

The message is so simple, so powerful and so very timely. And the best part is that it has PROVEN to be one of the highest converting programs ever launched. It's both endorsed and promoted by almost every heavyweight to include Brian Tracy, John Assaraf and Early to Rise to name just a few.

GOALS.... With The New Year Comes Great Responsibility!

2018

Why a New Years resolution? 

Resolution is defined as to do or not to do something. The act, decision or commitment to solve an issue or quarrelsome problem.

Every year around this time, we humans contemplate what bad habit we want to eliminate or some improvement we want to offer ourselves in the up and coming New Year. 

It seems that something we could very well start at anytime the previous year, New years always offer us a new beginning. Maybe it's a point of reference or the word new has something to do with just a place to start or start over.

A little research indicates that even though new years resolution is widely a western hemisphere tradition. Some 4000 years before, the Babylonians who celebrated New years in March (later changed by the Romans to January). Were the first to set New years resolutions.

Their celebrations were intended to favor their gods in hopes that the new year would be an exceptional one. As the Romans instilled our current new years date of January 1st. The primary resolution was to treat others with goodwill. Some of the more common resolutions to date, entails the likes of:

• Budgeting finances better
• Losing weight
• Quitting smoking
• Personal improvement
• Taking on a new hobby
• Eating healthier
• Contacting old friends & family members
• Finding a better job or starting one
• Improving or finding a new love

Interesting enough, statistics suggest that only 8% -10% achieve their desired goal. Many fall short within the 1st month. Yet, the New years resolution is a time honored custom that has lasted some 4000+ years and who are we to abstain from good old fashion tradition.



As we bring in the New year and set new goals, let us take a moment to do a basic acknowledgement of self-awareness. By first, appreciating what we already have. These being some of the really simple yet significant matters in our lives that we do take for granted.......breathing, sight, touch, a hug, a child's smile, being loved, the way the sky looks, the taste of your favorite food. What about that moment you're at peace when everything seems to be falling apart. Later, realizing, worrying would not have changed a thing.

Yeah, simple luxury of life.....Air, water, food & shelter.

So yes, this year be humble & grateful because no matter what your current situation.......understand that there is someone out there in this world that would gladly switch places with you in a blink of an eye. Grasp that realization for just a moment. That there is someone who would love to be in your predicament, in your  hardship, even though it may be an uncomfortable one for you now. Someone else is in that much more distressed. So yes, evolve into a bit more beholden of the things you already have then build on that.

Next, one of the leading personal gratification of all GOALS, is your health. We all have a vise or two that can be trimmed or cut loose. Smoking, drinking to much, addictions our eating habits etc. That when isolated can drastically improve ones energy, mental , fitness, and strength. Many of which, a simple exercise or diet will do to enhance our well-being. 

Of all importance.......

GOALS!

........a person's aspiration, a desired result, something that one tries to achieve. 

Businessdictionary defines it perfectly.......


"An observable and measurable end result having one or more objectives to be achieved within a more or less fixed timeframe."  


Make a short list of doable objectives.


Put them where you can see them everyday!

Now make a more ambitious desire. What long-term goal would you like to foresee? Make them a bit overboard, a little out of reach. (Now read the text in the image)

“Jump high brother!! So high that if you fall, then people should remark on not how far you fell but how high you jumped”  ~ Anubhav Mishra



Network - interact with any contact list, family & friends. Reach out to those that will help support your goals this year. 
Jim Rohn is quoted to say....... "You're the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with."
Advise them to remind you, to inspire you and to motivate you of the plans you started at the beginning of the year.

Hint: You'll find out who your true friends are. The ones that will walking with you when you don't have a ride as oppose to the ones that want to ride with you in the limo!

Get organized - Winter clean, declutter....everything! If it not essential to the NEW & IMPROVED you. Then clear out the old and shine up for the new.

 
This life, sadly (yet, understandably) has industrialized itself into a monetary system that may be irreversible. An entirely different subject.  

With compassion........ one can play the game, sort to speak. 

Start investing or at least learn more about the businesses that you buy products from on a daily basis that actually can pay you back........Investments! - If you are in your 20s or 30s. Include investing now. Think long-term strategy. Your older self will thank you.  Are you in  your 40s/50s, us baby-boomers. This is an interesting time to catch up! 
Believe this! 

With that.... 

Learn something new each day - Especially if it is related to your goals.....It's called........living life!

Focus on you! - Meditate on self-awareness

Work on understanding a bit more about yourself. Who are you really. What & why do certain things scare you. Why are you fearful? Try to dig a bit deeper into your inner self. Learn more about why you do or don't things. 


There is a reason why we are the way we are. If it is a bad habit or something that is holding you back......what is it related to?  Conquer your fears. Understand your vises and move forward in your life's journey.

Everyone is here for a reason, a GOOD REASON! 

Let the NEW YEAR give you motivation to grow!

2018: Does Your Life Need an Extreme Makeover?

Hello Goal-Setter 2018, 

I am often asked for a simple, effective, and no-nonsense approach to goal setting that can be used by anyone, anywhere, anytime.

What follows is what I affectionately call the 30-Day Extreme
Makeover. Follow it to the letter and you will be quite pleased with the outcome.

 

 
It's a simple six step process that is easy to learn, easy to
apply, and perhaps most important, easy to get results from.

1. WHAT do you specifically want to achieve in the next 30 days?
Be precise or don't bother moving to the next step.

2. WHY is the achievement of this goal(s) so important? Be clear on the key drivers and motivation or the first obstacle will be your undoing.

3. WHO will help you to achieve this goal? Be sure that these are the right people, with the right talents.

4. WHERE do you currently stand in relation to this goal? Be
ruthless and identify the size of the performance gap.

5. HOW do you plan on accomplishing this goal? Be deliberate, identify the exact steps, tasks, and assign responsibility.

6. WHEN will victory be claimed? Be committed, enforce your deadline, and follow one course until successful.

Would you like to learn the 29 other strategies for turning your life around?

I thought so, click here for quick and straight forward guidance on setting easy-to-reach financial, career, fitness, and family goals.
