Did you know that most Americans give up on their New Year’s resolutions and most businesses put aside their annual goals just six weeks after setting them?
That means most of us have forgotten or abandoned our goals by February 15 each year! Is that you?
Don’t give up on your goals. It’s not too late to achieve your 12 month goals. To make goal achievement a priority this year:
- Pull out your goals now; whether your goals are on a poster, a post-it note or a file on your computer.
- Review your goals. Evaluate, clarify, add detail, assign responsibilities, validate they are the right goals for you, the business, and your long-term objectives.
- Rather than give up ‘because after all you’re 6 weeks behind already‘, reset your goals with new milestones, deadlines and solutions.
- Reignite the purpose, passion, and reasons behind each goal today.
- Identify what the next step is you must take to achieve these goal. Do it today.
- Take one step everyday towards achieving your goals (a phone call, a book, a course, a client, a marketing campaign, team building exercise, planning).
Goal setting and goal achievement are not the same thing.
Everyone can get to the starting line of setting goals if they choose to. But only 5% of all businesses stay focused and committed to achieve their goals. You can too.
