Tips to Move Out of the Red Zone July 2014

Click on What Moves You Out of the Red Zone!

It's mid-July and mid-year. Many individuals take pause this time of year to evaluate their goals and check their progress. You may have your own tool for assessing your progress, but I personally like the dashboard measures of:

Red - not started

Yellow - started but slow (a.k.a. behind)

Green- on target

Aqua- exceeding expectations!

Things occur and you may be hanging out in the Red Zone. It happens. As in City Slickers, life's a do-over. Start over this month with the best practices of:

1) Writing down your goals
2) Assigning measurable results
3) Creating action steps for managing obstacles
4) Designing affirmations to stay focused
5) Creating your celebrations for success!

Affirmations are super ways to internalize, create patterns of positive thinking and ultimately impact your actions and results. Affirmations can be visual, auditory or tactile. Think sticky notes in strategic places, audio reps while cycling and tasks you do on a daily basis like typing your password.

Best wishes for a great second half of the year!

And don't forget to the shoot for the moon!
