New Years Goals – Resolutions Get Lost, Goals Get Accomplished

By Jan Verhoeff

Resolutions end up in a heap on the floor shortly after the New Year starts because we lose interest. We may still want the desired results, but the resolution itself lacks action power.  What to do?

Set goals, using measurable reality steps you can accomplish and reward.

Once you’ve acknowledged your goals by attaining the first step, you’re more likely, 75% more likely according to ESPN, to be exact, to finish what you started. Goals require a plan of completion. So, let’s get that plan in effect.

Set a goal by writing down the final result of your expected actions. If you want to sell $2,000 worth of product, write that down. Give your goal substance by first writing it on paper.

Now schedule your plan of attack and write down a list of things you MUST do to accomplish your goal. This may include making a list of prospective customers, contacting the customers or scheduling appointments. There’s no time like the present to schedule those appointments. Get your calendar out and write them down. At the very least, block out a space on your calendar for the appointments and then fill it up with names and places.

Check your behavior. Are you doing what you must to accomplish your goal? Did you make those calls? If not, what’s stopping you? Get your schedule together and do what you have to do to make your behavior match the expected goals you’d like to meet.

If you spend too much time doing what you don’t want to accomplish, change what you do. Do what is necessary to meet your goals. It’s important enough to write down, it MUST be important enough to change your behavior and accomplish.

Step up with activities that will get you where you want to go. Activity drives accomplishment. If you’re doing what is necessary to accomplish your goals, you’ll be achieving your goals in no time at all. Whatever specific activities you must do to meet your goal, schedule them in and do them. Once you get started on the path to accomplishment, you’ll be half way there.

Make this year your best year yet, by scheduling your goals and achieving them in record time. You can accomplish the goals you set for yourself, but you must get started today!
