Happy New Year. I hope you and your family had an amazing holiday season. If you want this year to be an amazing year, you must create momentum immediately. If you fail to create momentum then you will end up playing catch-up ball all year-long, and, well, that is just not fun. Now is the time to create a fresh start.
I will outline steps to take now. Many of these steps should have been created in the 4th quarter of 2016 but if you haven’t done so as of yet, later is better than never; so do it now!
- You must have a clear vision of what the New Year will look like. As my clients know we worked on vision ad nauseam the last quarter. Why? Having a clear vision creates excitement, which in turn creates momentum automatically. You always want to start the year off with as much momentum as you can muster. If you don’t know how to create a clear vision of what your new year will look like, ask a friend, colleague, or hire a coach to help you. This first step is crucial to your success.
- You must create meaningful action steps that will allow you to achieve your vision. When you deploy your action steps one of two things will happen. You will either like the result or you won’t. If you don’t like the result, tweak, change or re-create your action steps. Once again you will have a result that you either like or not. If you don’t like the result tweak, change or re-create your action steps again and keep doing it until you get the result that you want. Most people try an action step and then give up if the result isn’t what they hoped for. Giving up is never an option if you want to be successful.
- Hire someone to hold you accountable. Accountability forces you to stay on course even when things get rough, or unpleasant. Can you imagine if you deployed 1/2 of the great ideas that you had last year? Accountability forces you to deploy all of your great ideas.
- Invest in yourself. Like it or not you are going to need to invest more time and or money in yourself and in your practice. You cannot continue to perform tactical-based marketing. Your pocketbook cannot afford the waste that tactical-based marketing causes. Instead use strategic-based marketing. You will get a better return on your investment and you will get better results.
- Know your desired outcome. If you fail to know what you specifically want you will fail to achieve your desires. This is goal-setting 101. If you did not create your goals last year do it today. If you don’t know how to create goals then ask a friend, colleague, or hire a coach to help you. Goals are your roadmap. If you don’t have them, it will be very hard to get where you are wanting to go.
Building a practice and a life takes work, discipline time and money. It should not be difficult and it should be a labor of love.
