Thank you to listeners Susan and Gina for connecting with me on social media and for listening! And if you haven’t reached out yet… please do so!
Last Monday’s podcast was all about thinking DEEPER about your goals and identifying WHO you’ll become by achieving a specific goal. I shared that I’m listening to the book "Atomic Habits". In this book, author James Clear, talks about the science behind habits – good and bad. If you haven't listened to last Monday's podcast click here to do so, then come back!
It's important to break down your goals and focus on smaller month-by-month goals vs. being overwhelmed by the BIG yearly goal or even 3-5 years out. Yes, I always ask clients to identify big goals, but not all have been able to.
That’s why I say, “I meet my clients where they are, and help them get to where they want to go”. I challenge people to think ahead, then break it down. We’ve all heard the saying “How do you eat an elephant”? “One bite at a time!” That phrase has been given credit to MANY people – including Desmond Tutu and General Creighton Abrams. And a book titled the same by Bill Hogan – which I have NOT read… have you?
Well, that concept can be applied to so many things, including your goals!
So, no matter if you can see five years into the future or just this month or maybe the year, positive habits will help you get there. You’re like DUH Sandi, we all know that, but…
Exactly… BUT!
Listen in today as I share more about how I hear "but" so many times! And, I share how I got from one mile at a time to running half-marathons!
Baby steps.
Yes, many times we need the help, our tribe, our buddies, vendors, sub-contractors, collaborators and others we need to help us – remember…
LIFE IS A TEAM SPORT!
But it starts with the person in the mirror! Yes, YOU!
Last Monday I shared a story about a former client who wouldn’t take my advice of “baby-stepping” and ended up overwhelmed and quit. She didn't understand how to take ONE BITE of that elephant every day and in-turn quit.
