We are now well into a new year. \u00a0As I write this and have been coaching financial clients over the last few days, we are 49 weeks away from Christmas! \u00a0I know that seems like a very long time, but that one point in time is one point that we can all see in the very distant future will be right on our door step before you know it . \u00a0If you do not manage your goals by laying out a plan and attacking with a vengeance, you will find that you will not complete what you knew you could do – but failed to do. \u00a0What have you done to stay on track so far?<\/p>\n
Lets step back first. \u00a0Do you have goals for this new year? \u00a0What have you written down as to what you want to accomplish in the next 12 months? Most of us have an idea and have it “in my head”, but what have you done to “git r done”?<\/p>\n
Get your goals down on paper. \u00a0Break those goals down into small steps that, when completed, lead to the completion of the goal. \u00a0Remember, that mouse only eats the elephant one bit at a time. \u00a0When you break down your goals into achievable manageable steps you will accomplish what you set out to do.<\/p>\n
Set your timeline for achievement. \u00a0When do you plan to accomplish this task? \u00a0Set that date. \u00a0Build checkpoint dates leading up to that completion time and make sure you stick to your timeline.<\/p>\n
Share your goals with someone who will hold you accountable to achieve what you want to achieve. \u00a0Don’t pick someone who is close to you or the person who will likely drop the ball – find a drill sergeant type to push you! \u00a0Be honest, if you had someone pushing you how much more aggresive will you be?<\/p>\n
These small things bring big results in personal fitness, weight loss, finances, relationships, education, career changes, etc.<\/p>\n
This new year is not waiting on you to make it happen. \u00a0Time is your greatest commodity and it is quickly passing by. \u00a0What are you doing to be successful in attaining your goals this year?<\/p>\n
Are you underway?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
