As we near the end of 2011, I can't help but think back over the past 10 months and wonder if I truly met my goals.
Do you have any New Year's Resolutions that you set at the beginning of the year, but have not yet reached? I know that I have.
With two months left in the remaining year, I am taking the time to re-evaluate and re-set my goals. I'd like to help you do the same by following these easy steps:
1. Think about the goals that you have set for yourself.
2. Re-evaluate these goals and decide if they are attainable. If your goal is not within reach, you are just setting yourself up for failure. This will cause you to become discouraged and you will give up.
3. Write down your goals. This will help you to visualize your goals and make them more real to you.
4. Write down the steps you need to take to reach these goals.
5. Create what our team likes to call a dreamboard. Post pictures, stickies, etc of what you can expect when you reach your goal. (Ex. if you're starting a new business or job, cut out pictures of things you would like to have once you have made your goal and post them to daily remind you of what you hope to accomplish)
6. Tell someone what your goal is and make them hold you accountable for it. They will help you stay on track.
7. Take daily steps to reach your goals.
May we all take the time to recognize what we want out of life, establish our goals and take action to reach them! Have a great weekend everyone!
