7 Tips to Make 2011 YOUR Year

How do you set goals, practices, habits and behaviours to get a new result for 2011?

• To change the future, you need to change what you are doing right now!

• Einstein said that; ‘we cannot solve problems by using the same kind of thinking as when we created them’

TIP NUMBER 1START WITH THE END IN MIND

Setting out without a planned destination means that you will hit any moving target that passes you. To get to a specific point you need to have a set goal to move towards

Step one is to define where you are headed. What would you like to be saying about 2011 this time next year?

TIP NUMBER 2WRITE IT DOWN

Now you have defined where you want to be at the end of 2011, write it down.

Save it somewhere you can stumble upon it at least once a day and print it out so that you get the chance to read it every time you have five minutes.

Standing in a queue; get put your plan and read it. Like any map the more familiar you are with it, the more likely you are to get there with ease

TIP NUMBER 3READ IT

I know we covered that in step two, but this step is KEY.

You must remind yourself of where you are headed and the recommended frequency is at least twice a day

TIP NUMBER 4MOVE TOWARDS IT

Think about planning a trip to the supermarket. You get in the car, you know where the supermarket is, but every time you get to a junction you head in the other direction, How long will it take you to buy your groceries?

No, this isn’t a junior maths question. This is a great tip for why we get off course. When we are going to the supermarket we make it easy by driving straight there.

Try and apply the same simple logic to your goals. Seize the logical opportunities that keep you on track and disregard the rest

TIP NUMBER 5

KEEP GOING

You are the only one that can make your life happen as you want it.

If you want the goal, keep heading in the direction of it

TIP NUMBER 6DON’T GIVE UP

It is always easy to see someone that got there faster, or quicker than you. It is easy to become discouraged and think if you were going to reach your goal it would have happened by now.

The truth is that it takes focus plus a little time. In the scheme of the Universe a couple of months is but a blink.

Keep the faith in getting where you want to go. You CAN do it!

TIP NUMBER 7

REVIEW THE PLAN

When you get to your first goal, review your plan and start the next leg of your journey

Some things might not take as long to achieve as you first thought!
