I’m going to shoot a video about this, but it just looks too cold and foggy outside right now!
Iv’e always made New Year goals, but I don’t wait until New Years Day to start them. I think that is simply a lame excuse. Start them the day you make them – and be REAL about it!
I’ve also always heard to write down your goals, and never really took that advice to practice. “Yeah, yeah”, was my attitude. Today I wrote down my goals in a new notebook and made them SPECIFIC.
I started with a big “by-end-of-year” goal and worked that into actual numbers and specific monthly goals. I wrote down specifically HOW I will achieve those goals.
I started with a monthly dollar amount by the end of the year, then turned that into a #leads/day by end of year and worked backwards to this month.
So, for example, to have 100 new leads per day coming in by in Dec 2009, how many leads do I need to be generating per day by end-Jan 2009, and by end-Feb 2009, etc…
It becomes much more “real” when you attach numbers to monthly and weekly goals, rather than just saying, “I’m going to be generating 100 leads per day by end-of-year”.
So my New Year’s wish and advice for all of you…WRITE DOWN your SPECIFIC goals! Read and visualize them every day.
Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2009 to you all!!
