Did you achieve all the things that you wanted to? Did you loose that bit of extra weight, take that holiday you’ve been dreaming of, enroll into a coarse that has been on your mind for ages, find better paid employment that you’ve been discussing with others, take up that gym membership or golf lessons, cut back on spending, read the books that have been recommended to you, taken more time to be with friends and family? The list can go on and on!
Is this what you want to be asked again at the end of 2011? Did you achieve all the things that you wanted to? You have the opportunity to change the answers to the questions. What do you want those answers to be?
As a coach I can confirm that there is no better time to get your intentions into action than today. Get a vision of what you want. Make is clear, but not too safe. It is important to stretch yourself. Many things worth achieving are sometimes just outside your comfort zone. When your vision is clear, set your goals. Make yourself accountable by sharing your goals with a friend or colleague or coach. Put processes into place to make your goal achievable, be sure to be realistic on time frames and reward yourself with the progress you make along the way.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do”. Mark Twain
