As we approach the end of the year, we begin to make the excuse that we need to wait until the first of the new year to begin setting goals and taking actions that will accomplish those goals. But wouldn't it be more fruitful or you to start initiating movements NOW so that we can already be on track for success by January? Why do we need to wait until the first to say "new year, new me" when we can start by saying something more proactive like, "new me NOW".
Set the metrics you wish to use to measure your efforts and track your successes. Obtain and gather the steps necessary TODAY to take to meet and exceed your goals TOMORROW. Commit to improving 1% every day by doing the things you thought you would never do because you were too afraid that the result would be failure.
Recognize where you are and where you've been so that you can find ways to give back to those who matter most. Surround yourself with successful people who remain humble through their changing seasons of life. These are the people to learn new things from in order to grow yourself into your ideal success. If you allow yourself to be afraid of others taking your success from you, you will never be able to outgrow the version of you that you are right now--afraid. Don't find yourself making excuses of how afraid you are to ask the truly successful. They want to share their "secrets" to success with you--all you have to do is ask!
Ask for help with integrity, not negativity, and you will receive the support you need. The way you talk has an impact on the people around you, and especially yourself. Don't wait until January to start evaluating your needs, setting your goals, and establishing your boundaries you wish to see met in 2024. Work harder NOW so that you can enjoy the fruits of your labors TOMORROW. Your days are LIMITED! Time will pass no matter what you end up doing, so just commit to doing the things you need to do NOW.
