My October 2017 Monthly Goals Report

I have created a new and improved version of K Money Mastery which is called, Mastering Book Publishing!

Every month, I write a detailed monthly report about the progress that I'm making towards the goals and resolutions that I publicly stated on my blog earlier in the year.  This is my October 2017 Monthly Goals Report, which goes over each goal that I set and the progress that I've made on them so far.

Since I started sharing my Monthly Goals Reports a few years ago, I received such an amazing response from people on my blog.  People have been sharing with me how much I've inspired them or how helpful it's been for them by me openly sharing my progress.  It's my hope that you can take away something from this report that will help inspire you to achieve your own goals

My 2017 Goals Breakdown

I’m now going to go into each goal that I committed to for 2017 in detail and share exactly where I’m at with it.  Also, be sure to check out the original 2017 goals and resolution video blog and my previous Monthly Goal Reports to compare my progress.

FINANCIAL:

1. I will easily make $2,000,000 in revenue, while impacting thousands of peoples lives by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: $183,486.75 ($2,247,164.57 CAD total) – Goal Achieved

So happy that I achieved this goal during September, and now any additional income I make this month is just icing on the cake!  Wasn't expecting to overachieve on this goal the way that I have, I'm super grateful.

While it may be impressive that I was able to generate this amount of money in a month, it's always important to keep in mind that I did not get here overnight.  It's taken me years of hard work, learning and consistent effort to build the multiple online businesses and income streams that I've developed.  I also often remind people that the money you earn is merely a reflection of the amount of value that you've added to other people's lives.  If you focus on adding massive value and helping people, you will be rewarded for that.  That is what I continue to focus on every day and what I'm most proud of.

This income is comprised of a number of businesses and income streams that I have, such as:

2. I will easily have a $2,500,000 stock investment portfolio by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: $3,067,773.85 CAD – Goal Achieved

My stock investment portfolio continues to grow every month, however, as you can tell I'm sitting on a lot of cash.  I'm mainly sitting on my investments and collecting dividends, as the market has been doing fairly well lately.  Also, every month I've been transferring stock from one trading account to another, to ensure that I'm doing all of my investing from my holding company for tax and liability purposes.  After reading Tony Robbins book Unshakeable, he warns of a correction coming soon that will be a great opportunity to buy stock.  Right now I'm being patient. 🙂

My investment strategy is long-term and buying stocks that pay dividends.  Right now, I primarily focus on investing on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), since I benefit from the weak Canadian dollar and economy.  Currently, my overall investment portfolio is down, however, I believe I've been able to benefit from it as I'm always buying when things drop and taking advantage of things.

The awesome thing about investing in dividend stocks is that I've been able to make a passive income of a couple thousand per month, as the stocks I invest in either pay a monthly or quarterly dividend.  So I'm not only benefiting from any capital gains, but also receiving a passive income from my investments.

HEALTH & FITNESS:

17. I will easily complete a 15 day juice fast, cleanse my body and create unstoppable energy by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: Not planned yet

I haven't planned my 15-day juice fast yet.

I've found it extremely important every year to give my body a break, allow it to cleanse and heal itself through 15 day juice cleanses as well as liver flushes.  This years cleanse will likely include colon hydrotherapy sessions, cryotherapy, infrared sauna, massage therapy, rebounding and key supplements.

RESULT: Goal Achieved

My girlfriend Tatiana and I recently did Tough Mudder (my 2nd time) in Whistler, which was a lot of fun.  It's always fun to physically and mentally challenge yourself, pushing beyond your limits.  It was much easier to do this time around than my first time.  I look forward to doing it again in the future!

19. I will easily complete the Spartan Race in Vancouver and love the process by June 30, 2017.

RESULT: Not Achieved

I did NOT do Spartan Race this year.  I had it booked, but didn't do it due to a bit of a small injury, but honestly I still feel I could've done it and I don't want to use that as an excuse.  I let the excuse of, “Well, I'm doing Tough Mudder anyways… and I want to be prepped for that.”  Either way, I should've stepped up and did it!  Good lessons I need to utilize for my future.

20. I will easily complete the ScotiaBank Half Marathon in Vancouver and love the process by June 30, 2017.

RESULT: Cancelled – Not Achieved

I decided to cancel this marathon, as an opportunity came up for a seminar/event for me to attend that just so happened to be on the same date.  The seminar/event is more important for me right now and I believe I can join another Half Marathon at a later time in the year, perhaps still allowing me to achieve this goal.

21. I will easily do yoga once a week, increasing my flexibility and relieving tension by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: 2x

CONTRIBUTION GOALS:

46. I will easily host a monthly coaching session with the Project Life Mastery Teen Mentoring Program by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: 3x – changed to Life Mastery Accelerator

After hosting a few Teen Mentoring Sessions for the group of teens I mentor that are 18 years old and younger, I decided to change it up and instead integrate it with my Life Mastery Accelerator program.  I've now turned this into a 12-month long mentoring program that I'm making available to teens that would like my help and mentorship, which is something I wish I had when I was younger.  If you're 19 or older, then I believe you should be more than capable of paying for mentoring or coaching, just as I did when I was 19.  But those 18 and younger often don't have credit cards and I am passionate about being a “Big Brother” to those that need it.

If you are 18 or younger, click here to join the Teen Mentoring Program.

48. I will easily fund a school to be built with ChangeHeroes, Imagine1Day or another organization by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: $4360 raised – click here for more.

49. I will easily volunteer in Ethiopia to build a school that I funded by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: Goal Achieved!

In October, Tatiana and I traveled to Ethiopia with Imagine1Day for a school inauguration that we helped fund.  It was one of the most powerful, life-changing experiences of our lives!  We were greeted by hundreds of children and families – it was so amazing to have been able to make such an incredible impact on their lives in such a way.

50. I will easily cultivate the habit of giving more by giving to those that are homeless and truly in need every opportunity I get by December 31, 2017.

RESULT: On fire for October!

Overall, I enjoyed putting this Monthly Goals Report together and I look forward to doing one again next month.  I’ve found that this public commitment has been pushing me to stay motivated and accountable as well, which is helping me to get more done also.  Thanks for reading!
