2011- What Are Your Plans?


Hello All!!

So, once again we are starting a brand new year with new possibilities and fresh new promises to ourselves. The problem is, after the first few weeks of our so called resolutions, most people tend to slip back into their old ways and forget about the resolutions made. Will this be you this year? Well, it will not be me. I am very excited about what the new year has to offer D3 as well as my own personal goals.

Here is how I plan to stay focused on my resolutions/goals...you can do this too!!

1. I just teamed up with a group of friends that have all agreed to hold each other accountable for our goals! We actually sent in 3 goals we want to achieve in the first quarter 2011. Each member added a deadline to each others goals. So, we are not allowing the person with the goals to decide the deadline, the group is deciding the deadlines for them. This way, the person feels accountable to the other members to get it done by the deadline provided. Love this!

2. Write all your goals down (just 2 or 3 at a time) that you feel you can achieve in Q1 2011. Once you have them written down, put them up someplace where you can see them every day. I like the bathroom because we all go in there at least 3 -4 time a day!

3. Create a vision board for your life. Get a large sheet of construction paper and just add photos and the words of how you want your life to be....it can be ANYTHING! Nothing is too grandiose for your vision board! Then, believe in yourself to make it all happen!

4. Do what you say you will do! Stop the lip service and get to action. Action is what gets you to your goals....not talking about it!

5. Gut check yourself every Sunday night. Ask yourself: did I do what I said I would last week? If not, why didn't you? Laziness, no time, overly scheduled, etc....but be honest. I know when I do not do what I say I am gonna do, its mostly laziness. Just keeping it real!

Good luck with your resolutions this year! I am sticking to mine FOR SURE!

I recommend the following books/audio books to help you stay on track and focused. I downloaded both of them to my Ipod and listen to a chapter as I am driving. These 2 books have changed the game for me.

Books- both are on I-tunes or in any bookstore.

The Law of Success In 16 Lessons by Napoleon Hill.

The Science of Personal Achievement by Napoleon Hill.

2011 is gonna really be the year I make it happen for D3 and my personal goals. How about you?

Be Fit! Stay Fit!

Dre,

You are such a positive person, and such the encourager!

This was awesome you really put me back in place with this blog. I have a vision board in my office, and Taylor has one also, but that's just it i did not really do anything with it last year and Taylor follows my lead so she did not do anything with hers either. I will be working on both our boards this week.

Thanks so much for all the tips.

I do hope that you realize that a book is in you to write and to publish.
