New Year. New and Improved YOU!The Three Questions That Matters Most When Setting Your 2021 GoalsLooking back at 2020 we all experienced sorrow and suffering. We all have regrets for things that we did and did not do; for time that was squandered; for opportunities lost. Likewise we all have accomplishments, positive changes, and progress to be celebrated. Many of us rediscovered the meaning of life and what is truly important. Now, we have a chance to start anew with a clean slate and new hope. It is an opportunity to reset and plan new goals. This begins and ends with answering the three questions that matter most: - What do you want?
- How do you plan to get what you want?
- How bad do you want it?
Frankly, it is about honesty. Set goals. Not empty resolutions. Not fleeting wishes and hopes. Real goals that mean something for your career and life. It is about being true to yourself. Start with defining what you want, building a plan, and writing it down. Most people won’t and don’t because defining what you want – articulating where you will be at the end of next year – is difficult. It requires you to think. It requires you to take risk. It requires you to be accountable to the only person in your life to whom you are really accountable – YOU. The Cat in Alice in Wonderland replied "If you don't know where you are are going, any road will get you there.” Here is a brutal truth: If you don’t have a plan, you will become a part of someone else’s plan. You can either take control of your life or allow someone else to control you to enhance their life. It’s your choice. So start here. Define what you want and write it down. This means gathering up the discipline to stop what you are doing, sit down, and actually think about your future. Goals and plans don’t matter if you don’t have the desire and unwavering will to achieve them. This is why New Year Resolutions are almost never met. They are wishes born in hope and carried away on the wind as soon as the tiniest hint of adversity is met. This is why nearly 100% fail on their resolutions. Why nearly 100% don't achieve the goals they want. So, this begs the question… What do you do to hack this human weakness? How do you create a workaround for this defect? That is what I want to help you with. You need THREE THINGS: 1- EXTERNAL FORCE: Newton's first law taught us: We will remain at rest unless compelled to change by the action of an external force. This is why people hire personal trainers, coaches, tutors, counselors, and therapists. You need an outside force to break your inertia. Our natural tendency of excuses and procrastination. 2- A SYSTEM: A proven, step-by-step system to make the big & complicated, simple & easy - if you just follow. You want to remove decision making and the need for discipline from the process. 3- ASSOCIATIONS: A group of like-minded & like-ambition allies going in the same direction to spur you on & hold you accountable. Our plans are designed to give you the 3 things you need to truly develop, change, and grow into your greatness. Picture yourself at the end of next year. Where will you be? Will you be happy, content, and satisfied with your accomplishments or be left sitting on a big pile of should-have-dones and regret for the year you wasted? The good news is your future has not been written. It is completely within your control. Take a moment today to answer these three critical questions and build your plan for the new year. |
