Looking back and taking an honest assessment of what's really happening, where you really are, and what's really holding you back, is an important first step. Ask questions like:
What exactly does success mean to me? (Write a colorful, detailed description)
What values are reflected in my definition of success?
Do my current daily behaviors reflect my living by those values?
Pick specific, measurable, time-oriented goals that are, in your mind, do-able. You’ll find yourself feeling more successful and staying committed in ways you may have not done in the past. Given the criteria above:
What are three goals I can reach this year and how will I know when they have been achieved?
What 3 daily behaviors will be evidence that I am on track?
What are 3 of my strengths that I am committed to build upon?
In my own journey, I have found a difficult place to start is a radically honest self-assessment and mindful introspection. Both are necessary to create a foundation for a highly successful personal and professional life. Then follow introspection with structured investment in yourself.
What is one practice I can invest in to renew and restore my energy every week?
What does it look like for me to practice extreme self-care of that type that yields great results?
What two things bring me joy and how can I commit to having them in my life?
You can produce the extraordinary results you desire and deserve for 2020.
