Happy New Year everyone! 2010, that’s a cool sounding year. Let’s make it our best year ever.
Now’s the time when we all make New Year Resolutions that most of us won’t keep past the end of this month. I heard on the radio yesterday that although the Gym parking lots may be full now just give it awhile. By the end of February the parking lots will be almost half as full and by the end of March well, they’ll be just about back to their core group. We all start out with good intentions but most people will be in the same spot their in right now on December 31, 2010 – why is that?
It may be we aren’t really serious about our goals or we bite off more than we can honestly comment to. And sometime we just need an accountability partner.
So, here’s a tip. Write down where you would like to be on Dec 31, 2010 – it could be a location, something about you in your personal growth or appearance, it might even be regarding your finances, a home business, etc. What ever it is, write it down. Now, honestly think first is it a stretch but is it attainable. If the answer is yes then think what steps do you need to take to reach your goal. You have a whole year to take the necessary steps to reach your goal so make the steps easy. You might take a calendar and mark it with certain steps for each month, this will help you stay on track and take targeted little bites to reach your goal.
Does it sound to simple? Too many times we make reaching our goals to difficult. Keep it easy.
So, give it some deep thought and make a pack with yourself that this year you are a success in achieving your goal(s). Tell a friend or business partner so they can help keep you accountable. Accountability is key. You might even write down what will happen if you don’t meet your monthly goals, if you don’t like the answer use this to help keep you motivated.
Always dream and always reach for the stars!
