I just wanted to let you know that I send people to your site all of the time. In every course we teach we talk about the importance of goal setting and the percentages of goals that are met when written (approx. 65%). I suggest that your site does some great stuff for them including the reminders that help to keep them on track.
--Pat DeMers, Canada

I set the goal of increasing my income by making offers on, and buying investment houses. I have made offers on several different houses so far. Although I haven't yet had an offer accepted, I know that I will, as long as I continue to make offers. MyMotivator.com has helped me by reminding me of my goal daily in my email. Some days it's easy to forget your goal if you're not reminded of it. Thank you MyMotivator.com.
--Mark Durham, Atlanta, GA

With the help of My Motivator, I have completed my website and the business plan for my retail business. I am now shopping for investors and already have two suitors who have signed letters of intent for commitments far in excess of my projected start up costs. Thanks!! The reminders were invaluable in getting and keeping my days aligned.
--Archie L. Rich II, Washington, DC

I've been using your site for a while now to achieve a lot of my goals. I've achieved so many, it's hard to keep up with them! I also use your site as a daily reminder to stay on track for the current goals I have set for myself. I finally got a project off the ground I've been wanting to do for years. I'm writing a book, I'm creating a cool web site (I will be using your free motivational post cards on it) and I'm adding to the list every day. Your site is constantly reminding me to do the things I must do to get the job done and move on. I will continue to use your site as long as you provide it because it is the most awesome goal attaining software I have ever seen!
--Ron Henley, Marietta, GA

When I stumbled into the MyMotivator site, I expected to read some motivational articles, nothing more. Boy, was I ever wrong! Truthfully, I checked out the site, thinking that I'd forward the URL to my friend, who's unemployed and can't seem to get her stuff together (which I did); but then it turned out that it was MY lucky day! I signed up up for a guest membership and built a goal tree. My goal? To get my thesis written and off my table. My thesis is a barrier in my life, a left over from my time in college. I'm making my money freelancing now. Though I'm interested in my thesis topic, it seemed like a useless and far-away thing that had nothing to do with the career I'm working on. As I built my goal tree, I had to define what reaching my goal means. I visualized my life "after the thesis" -- no more pressure, no more guilt, sense of accomplishment, reason to celebrate! Getting it done means to get my life back, to be the master of my time. When I visit the site, I see my motivation for getting it done. I see the steps I need to take and I can check them off one after the other. There is an end to my suffering ;^) What also helped me was to listen to the tapes. Chris Widener spelled it out for me: time management isn't so much about the "how" (really, I know the "how", I swear!), but about the "why". The "why" hasn't much to do with my thesis, it has all to do with having the freedom to pursue my dream. I have told a friend about mymotivator. She's a psychologist and in the process of building her practice. Yesterday she created her goal-tree -- today she sent me an email thanking me. She is just as enthusiastic about mymotivator as I am. Thank you, Chip Lowell, for creating this incredibly helpful tool. It really works!!
--A. M., Seattle, WA

I can tell you I just started using your daily reminders of the health goals I recently set. I have found them to be a real lifesaver. As I am about to turn 50 and have high risk of heart disease..I really needed the diet and exercise reminders. Although I have only recently started..my goal was to lose on pound a week and I have kept to the plan. I often would rather work than exercise, but now I find that I actually have more energy and will probably live longer..Thanks for helping me change my life so that I may enjoy life more fully…
--Debbi Carroll, Tucson, AZ

I have achieved my goal of consistently saving money each weekusing the mymotivator.com and the body for life goal setting. Every time I looked at the pictures and the emails each day it was front and center in my mind. Thanks for a great resource and the tapes are outstanding. I wasn't able to save my money each week except for the emails that reminded me since other more urgent stuff got in the way.
--Andy G., Arkansas

I am working with a family member to accomplish the goal of writing a book. When the book is finished it will hopefully help increase our income and get my wife and I out of the red. My Motivator has helped to keep me on track reminding my family member to stay on track. It looks like we are going to have the main part of our book finished by the first of the year.
--Geoff Scott, Chandler, AZ

I am so glad that I will finally get an opportunity to thank you for your web.site. I don't know how I managed to get to your site but it has totally changed my life now and forever. When I read about setting goals for weight lost, I thought I have got to try this and to my amazement I started working at my goal. This has been the best time of my life for I set a long term goal of losing weight. Before I always set myself up to fail by not giving myself enough time to work on changed but this time I know that I will reach my goals because of your web.site. For a person who has never set goals before it was a thrill to see how much I only had to lose to reach my goal by my daughters birthday of next year. I have a total of 62lbs. to lose and have so far lost 11lb.s since Oct.16. Before my goal setting I would have been disappointed with only 11lbs. but my goal is far enough away that I will reach it if not before hand. I am doing the Bodyforlife Challenge and I am thrilled with my results if it hadn't been for your web.site I would still be in the same old ways of living and eating but THANK GOD above I am no longer that person and I am so motivator by what you had done for me. I really wanted to join just didn't have the extra money but I am really grateful for you have changed my life forever. I can't say thank you enough Thank you Thank You Thank you. After the weight lost I am going to start setting goals to getting out of debt. Keep up the good work you are helping someone and that person is me.
--Sherry Baird, Sanford, NC

My name is Heather Shell. I do accounting, payroll and receivables for a large off road manufacturer. As you can imagine my days are full of a ton of work. Using your program has helped me achieve my goals in a timely manner! I also manage my time at home! I have found by setting goals I feel better about myself! I have shared your site with some of my co-workers and they love it. Not only have I used it for work I also use it for a diet aid. Thank you very much for your time.
--Heather K. Shell, Dewey, AZ

I have had tremendous success in achieving my goals using "MyMotivator.com". Using your site, in conjuction with the "Body for Life" program, I have lost over 10% of my body fat! I have also quit drinking alcohol, and my marriage has never been as great as it is now!! My energy level is terrific, and is reflected in everything that I do. I find the daily reminders are something that I really look forward to. The motivational quotes are terrific, and your system really helped to keep me on track and on task.
--Dennis Fredrickson, Riggin, ID

I have to say, at first I thought to myself that MyMotivator was going to be just another "fun" thing to do with my time. Instead, I found myself so inspired as I entered in my goals and layed out the plan I needed to follow in order to reach them. I have several goals, and I have found that the reminder e-mails are a welcoming "tap on the shoulder" to keep me on track and keep my eyes on the prize. One of the most troublesome areas of my life was incorporating a healthy eating and fitness lifestyle. I can't even count the number of times I have attempted to accomplish this goal. Since, signing up with MyMotivator, I not only find myself sticking to my goal, but have lost over 10 pounds to boot. I have managed to reduce foods that were giving me trouble like access sugar, refined flour products and caffeine. In addition, I find myself exercising to a different beat instead of the same one I have been dancing to for the last several years. Some days I go for a nice walk, other days I get on the step machine. My goal is just to make working out a pleasurable part of my life and writing it down and being reminded by MyMotivator has helped me put that life habit as well as the others I desire into perspective! Lastly, another benefit that I have found is the e-mail reminders that give you a little push along the way. I feel like I have my own personal coach running along beside me and telling me "You can do it! Stick with it! I believe in you!" Thanks for asking about my progress. I plan on using MyMotivator for all future goal planning. It is a tool worth using!
--Athena Kabylafkas, Denver, CO

I must say that I work with many people that use goal setting for many aspects of their lives. I got on your web site and made some goals earlier this year by being specific in weight loss of how much, by when and including making a statement that I would get back into size 36 from 40-42's. I also had made a goal that I would win in the weight loss contest our company had with a new product. In August I was on stage at the convention and took my pants off (42s with 36 paants underneath). It was a great feeling lossing about 35 pounds in the time I had stated to only losing 25 by end of May and getting into a pair of 36s by end of year. In which I did that in August. GOALS WORK! Especially when written and your format is very easy to put the correct perspective for one to reach their goals. You can keep constant reminders, updates, support to stay on tract and so much more! I must admit that I got lazy with using the web site that when I finally looked at the goals I had actually reached them. I must use the web site and your great product more often, I would probably accomplish more.
--Brian Cox, Aurora, CO

I have just basically started my own enterprise a few months ago, and one of my friends told me about your site, I find it wonderful, its such boost to read my journal and have my goals there for me to read and although I have not achieved all that I have set out I have achieved the most important one of all, for me it is to call my prospects each and every day and put people through the system, I have made the MyMotivator the page that comes up when I go to the internet I find that to help allot as well. For me I would have to say that this site has helped me achieve the main goal that I set out to do and by doing this all the other goals that I have put down will in fact happen you see with this site I am not only doing the writing of the goals but I am doing the action and that is the most important thing. I know that this site will has and will continue to play a big part in my success and my daily motivation. Thank you Chip for all your time and effort that you have put into this. It is helping me and all my customers in my customer base you see they all know too. They use it and find it as helpful as I do.
--Janet Prince, Peterborough, ON

Yes, I have achieved 2 goals that I had put off working on for quite some time. First, I FINALLY cleaned out the dread bedroom closet and carted a bunch of stuff off to Goodwill. Second, I'm a freelance writer and usually pretty good about meeting deadlines, but one book proposal had been nagging at me for weeks and I couldn't seem to do it. Well, it's outta here to the (potential) publisher. So, thanks!!!
--Sheila Boneham, Bloomington, IN

My goal of achieving an A or B in all of my classes this semester won't be decided until the end of this month. But I will say that every time I receive an email from MyMotivator.com I look forward to reading the quotes and applying them to my life and goals. While the ultimate goal is not complete I had succeeded in my short term goals of using my time more efficiently. I find myself going to bed earlier, which isn't a too common thing in college, and spending more time learning the material rather than just looking over it and getting my assignments done. I have raised all of my grades in the B- to B+ range right now with two and a half weeks left. If I remain on the same track I am heading right now I will achieve my goal. Thank you for providing this service, I looked around the internet and tried to find a goal setting set. Yours was the best I found. Thank you once again.
--David Derochick, West Point, NY

Absolutely. The emailed MyMotivator messages keep me on track wherever I am in the country. I continually update and use the website. Best of all, your service has helped me reach those goals. For example, I had a goal of making a certain income each month with sub-goals attached. With the help of MyMotivator.com, I've EXCEEDED those goals and have made new ones to reach for. Thank you so much for a fabulous product.
--Anna Land, Irving, TX

MyMotivator.com helped me get an A- in my Counseling Skills Class. I entered my assignments and received email reminders which helped me stay on top of my homework and made it harder for me to procrastinate. I look forward to using MyMotivator.com more frequently to help me get clarity on and organize my goals.
--Tracy James-Huhn, Arlington, VA

I really look forward to receiving your motivational E-Mails everyday. I set several work goals on your site and I have improved tremendously since joining. I achieved salesman of the month for the first time in 8 months since I joined. I am going to do it again next month. Keep up the great work.
--Doug Foust, Charlotte, NC

I fell a little short in achieving my goal, but was still one of the top sales reps in my company. Your reminders helped out tremendously, I didn't lose focus on the overall picture.
--David Barringer, Walled Lake, MI

I am so very interested in your site. I am wanting a lifestyle make over. I want to sell on ebay (junk and antiques) but I can not get going. You have motivated me with this e-mail to devote some quality time to your site and find away to stop procrastinating. I believe I can do it. Thank you.
--Arleen Webb, Bella Vista, AR

My goal is actually still ongoing, but your daily reminders prompted me to take action on the steps necessary to reach my goal. The quotes each day with the reminder were great! I use them as my screen saver each day to keep me focused on my goal. What I enjoyed about setting up My GoalTree was having to really think about what was going to help me get to my goal, and what activities I needed to focus on, and also, which activities I needed to set aside.
--Laurel Swanson, Des Moines, IA

I found the daily reminders to be of great help. Without the constant but gently push, I would slip back into my old ways of procrastinating. I completed 2 goals within the first week and I feel that I am on the right track to being committed about making positive changes.
--Ken Lewis, Chicago, IL

MyMotivator is just what I needed for my Network Marketing business. It keeps me continually adding to my customer base. It provided the focus I needed to get myself promoted. It is incredible!
--Aaron Whitus, Anchorage, Alaska

I decided to make exercising in the morning before work, a habit. MyMotivator.com was in my e-mail inbox every weekday morning to remind me of that goal. I have now been exercising regularly for over 4 months - aerobics 3 days a week and weight lifting 2 days a week. I recently took a "fitness age" test at my gym and was measured as having the fitness age of a 23-year-old....I am 47 years old.
--Judy Van Norman, Phoenix, AZ

My goal was to Write every day, even if it was not a part of an article or story, to get myself in the habit of writing every day. I have been doing this now, with the help of mymotivator since December of 1999. Mymotivator has been a great success for me, with it's help I have become motivated to acheive my goal and become a productive writer.
--Carol Gossard, Bremerton, WA

this is a great idea because I have 2 places that I pick up email...work and home..so wherever I am--my reminders come---I am always on the computer (and have no resident memory in my brain)
--Pat, Santa Clarita, CA

I did achieve my goal, but it was achieved in a very chaotic fashion. The use of MyMotivator.com was minimal. Most likely because my goal was based on a strong desire that I had no idea how to organize or obtain. It did however stay in the forefront of activities with the email reminders. They acted like a conscience a poke in the rear so to speak to keep at it.
--Joseph L. Naimo, Grand Rapids, MI

It reminded me about what's important - I stayed on target instead of drifting away, losing interest. This is a great idea - it works, it's easy, fast, and to the point.
--Eric Noble, Lancaster, CA

I have succeeded in working on, and passing an online teaching course with the help of My Motivator. I had started it about 8 months ago and got stuck because I procrastinated. Usual story: the longer I left it, the harder it was to get back into it. By setting myself regular targets on My Motivator, I have been able to cut the rest of the course down into manageable chunks, and have completed all sections and assignments on time. I am so pleased with myself. Many, many thanks!
--Linda Culm, London, UK

after setting up my goals, my new business (Janitorial Co.) had me dealing with many different things as I got used to working in the Florida market (I'm originally from NY). I had set up the goals tree based solely for sales goals but many months at a time I was absorbed with operations and adminstrative tasks. As I would be notified of goal benchmark's that were due by your service, it was and is very obvious that your service is one of the best things a small business man can have because of the accountability aspects. So many times a small business person feels as though he or she is out there alone but services like yours can help those business people stay focused and on track to meet the objectives they have set for themselves. I am happy to say that even though I did get a little off track from time to time, I have come close to meeting the sales goals that I had set for myself.
--Roy S. Rittberg, Naples, FL

I used My Motivator as a consisant reminder system to keep my healthy lifestyle progressing. I do have a better relationship with my wife, which was my big goal, and using My Motivator helped me get there several months earlier than I would have otherwise. The inspirational quotes help motivate me to stay focused.
--John Muse, Huntingon Beach, CA

MyMotivator.com helped me really achieve some goals that had just been sitting on my plate for quite a while, not going very far, very fast. In all honesty, I didn't visit the website all that much after i had set up my goal tree and deadlines. It was the e-mail reminders that really pushed me along. They were like mom.... reminding you to do your homework or practice the piano. Little reminders that said "hey, it's me! remember the goals you set for yourself... just want to make sure you didn't forget about me" Because of some financial and family hardships I had to leave college after my freshman year. For the last seven years I've been trying to get back, but all I could see were the obstacles; current debt, my age, that fact that I hadn't done much in my major field for quite a while, all the reasons that said it wasn't possible. The goal tree helped me break it down into small, manageable tasks. Suddenly things went from impossible to very possible. I can't begin to describe the feeling of pride and accomplishment I feel for having realized this very important goal. Thank you for helping make it possible. You have already given me an incredible gift.
--Tonya Fullmer, Rochester, NY

Three months ago I needed to lose 6 kgs of weight, I joined MyMotivator and through your help and continued encouragement I have lost that 6 kgs and am now currently attending the gym 4 days per week and am much fitter and healthier than ever before and I owe it all to you. I also run a local youth group and use a lot of the motivational quotes that you send me in my newsletters and to encourage the youth, so once again thank you very much for having such a positive impact on my life and the lives of those around me.
--Sue Wilson, Sydney, Australia

One of my goals was to increase my sales productivity. I am a Real Estate Agent and had experienced a slump in my protectivity and hence my energy level and it just became a vicious circle. Since starting my trial membership I have managed to "create" a flow of new listings and new sales transactions. The emailed reminders of my goals and actions to take were this constant encouragement IN MY OWN WORDS to keep at things and to keep my attitude positive. Also helpful is my list of reasons why I want to achieve my overall goals. Your program has helped breathe new life into this REALTOR ! I now set daily and weekly goals for contacts and followups and other promotional activities and you know it works. I am finishing the year exceeding the goal I had set last year, but this would not have happened if I had not gotten help with your site in pulling me out of my slump. I will receive an award for Million Dollar Producer for this year.
--Kym Kennedy, Coos Bay, OR

While I have yet to achieve any of my goals completely yet I have achieved progress which is in my opinion the major hurdle. Once the ball is rolling it continues downhill, or better yet uphill in this case.
--Jon M. Collins, Richmond, VA

The only goal I set on your site and it was to buy a house. I put the photo of the house on my computer as a screen saver (one of your motivational photos) and checked the reminders everyday. I closed on the house exactly 3 weeks ago and am now looking at buying a second.
--Nick Hughes, Charlotte, NC

I've only been using MyMotivator.com for about a week, but already it has helped me establish goals (the wizards are great!) and work toward them. I find an online program is extremely useful for me, so that I can use it from both home and work, and since I have all of my email reminders sent to my online email account, I get those wherever I am as well! Less than a week and I'm already on my way to my goal of achieving optimum health! Thanks for creating this great site.
--M. Liggitt, Sarasota, FL

My goals to start have been small, with a 30 day goal to hit my sales target, and to expand my eCommerce business. Each day I stored and read your emails into a separate file and at the end of the first month I had allot of early morning motivation, and an eye on what was expected. The first month I nearly hit my goal so I persevered a second month and wrote in longer goals with a picture you had of a captain at his boat, ( a dream of mine) Now I am hitting and beating my goals and am set to achieve the bigger goals planned for me. My statement is: dare to dream and believe in yourself while edifying and helping other achieve there goals, you CAN have your cake and eat it to …
--Paul Cross, Vancouver, BC

I must tell you that I have into goal setting for years and thought I had all the techniques down pat. I decided to give my motivator a try and I must tell you that the results where pretty amazing. The daily reminders that are first sent out really kept me on track, as did the weekly later on.I achieved one of goals ( financial gain) prior to the date and was thrilled. You really kept me on track. The ease of filling out my goals also made it great and for people who have never done goal-setting before its a real motivator ( no pun intended) to keep going. Thanks again to you and the folks at My Motivator for helping me achieve my goals
--Bruce Millstein, Chatsworth, CO

My goals are really a little longer termed than what the guest sign up allowed. I am on a two year plan. The reminders I received really helped me to stay focused on what I am going to accomplish. The site helped me to write down my goals and develop a workable plan to achieve them. The site is a very useful tool for organizing your thoughts and working through your setbacks.
--Tony Johnson, Tucson, AZ

I have learend from my motivator that a person needs to set goals and keep to the schedule which you have set for yourself. The fact that I have managed to organise my work in such a way that I have time for myself and my family is a motivator in itself. Previously I only made time for my job and did not realise that I am harming my daughter by not being there for her. Now I spend time with her and with my husband, even if it is only sitting and reading together and watching a tv programme as a family. I have learned a lot through prioritising and not allowing people to abuse my willingness to be there for everyone who needs me.
--J.J., Windhoek, Namibia

I set the goal of paying off crushing interest-bearing debt. I sent the final payment on November 20, 2000. Ahead of schedule because of MyMotivator.com. Receiving the daily e-mail reminding me of the goal, with encouragment and the image I selected proved to be what I needed to put on blinders and watch my interedt-bearing debt disappear!
--Geila Thompson, Manhattan, NY

I had been feeling very scattered, and feeling down about my music career not taking off as quickly as I wanted it to. One day, I visited MyMotivator.com seeking some uplift, and decided to download Chris Widener's audio clip on Developing Goals. I listened to it several times over the course of a week. Over the following weekend, I sat down and wrote a new song, recorded it... and I released it as a single last week! MyMotivator.com is very helpful to me when I need a quick energy pick-me-up... works every time!
--Bird Jensen, Byron Bay, Australia

What can I say? It works. Last January, like millions of other folks, I faced the new millennium with some questioning and reassessing of where I was and where I wanted to be in my life. As a Mastermind student, I certainly believed in the power of setting goals, but over a month into the new year, I was floundering about a job search. Doing some research for a class I was teaching on theories of learning, a search on motivation turned up a link to MyMotivator.com. Casually checking out the site, my experimentation with the process led me to get serious about it. As I worked through the steps, reflecting, categorizing and setting specific behavioral objectives, I found myself feeling empowered and open to new possibilities. Strangely (or not so strangely), my process resulted in a sensitivity and an openness to a career move that I would not have thought possible. Within one month (the goal I had set) I accepted a positon as Director of Youth & Family Services. The job was not one I had originally envisioned, but it seemed to be a natural outcome of opening myself to the MyMotivator process. I have now embarked on a path that not only revives a childhood "dream," but also utilizes the years of experience, education and skills that had seemed to lead in a different direction. Thanks, Chip. I am reminded that the process is on-going. A happy and fulfilled life needs the structured creativity and focused motivation that your MyMotivator.com process provides. Keep up the good work.
--Sandy Harris, Memphis, TN

Just wanted to let you know that over the past 20 or so years I have often seen "Goal lists" but have never taken the time to go over any. When visiting your site I came upon the "GOAL TREE" and took the time, normally I would have passed it by, but the overview and the explanations were so interesting that I had to explore. Now very grateful for the article and the easy way to effectively put it in motion. I have since written out my goals, both short and long term and the short term is already exceeding an expectations. I have made a $200.00 bonus for this week and boy am I happy! What a terrific site. Would recommend for everyone to initiate and use!
--Mary Rowe, Portsmouth, VA

Firstly, thank you for providing such an excellent service. Through your site I have been able to stay focused on my goal of Starting a new business before 2001. Although vey much still a work in progress, I am now in business, at www.Creativetourism.net It has always been my dream to work in the Activities Holiday business in Ireland and now thanks to the support of your service I will be providing various activity programs in County Anrim, Northern Ireland as and from January of this year! My motivator has assisted in developing specific and measurable goals for me to achieve. It has been a great resource for me to get information from great business gurus such as the Goalsguy. Above all, it has been a constant companion and guide in the development of my idea for the past 6 months. Many thanks again for this excellent service, and best wishes for your own further development.
--John Bustard, Warwick, RI

I was referred to mymovtivator.com by a friend and set out to lose 10 pounds. E-mail is a major part of my work and so it was a huge part of my staying on track to have a personal reminder each day. I have not only lost the 10 pounds I set out to lose but an additional four pounds on top of that. It is like having a coach to keep you accountable.
--Veda Bottomly

I did achieve a goal using MyMotivator.com. My goal was to increase my sales, and stay on track with phone calls and letters. I achieved these goals. I also set a goal to lose 10 pounds-and ended up losing 15! The motivational emails helped keep me on track. Thanks for a job well done! Great system!
--Michelle Hoyt, Surprise, AZ

MyMotivator.com has done a great deal to help me get in shape and lose weight! Sometimes I get caught up in daily activities in life and sometimes I dont want to work out or go jogging like I should. Then, I open up my email and there is an email from MyMotivator.com. This really motivates me because the email reminds me of WHY I set this goal in the first place. After reading the email I immediately drop everything and go do what I am supposed to. It has helped me keep focused and get closer to my goal.
--Jamalh Lagrone, Willingboro, NJ
