ARE YOUR GOALS LEFTOVERS?
|
Are your New Year's goals leftovers from prior years? If so, ask yourself, "Why haven't I kept
my promises?" There are usually two reasons. It is not that important to you now or you do not know how to achieve it.
If it is not important, then just delete it. If the goal is important, then just
pick one goal and declare confidently to yourself, "Help is on the way."

4 Steps for HELP, which I call the D.W.I.P.
Define your goal with specificity
Write it down
Invite someone to regularly hold you accountable. Do not
choose a friend because a friend will buy your excuses
Practice, practice and practice whatever your goals are
This DWIP is a proven coaching
strategy. Let me know your success on this and let me know your plan
for being held accountable. I'll
be glad to help you strategize on this accountability.
