Happy New Year!
I think many of us probably spend at least a few moment reflecting on what we want to do, be, change in the new loop around the sun.
Its natural, I guess.
But I think the bigger thing and better way of approaching any new challenge or objective is to figure out what the intention of the action or change is going to be.
To put it more simply, how are you going to act with intention in the new year.
Instead of setting some pie in the sky “resolution,” wouldn’t it make more sense for you to set yourself a course or a goal and make a plan for achieving it.
I talk pretty regularly about using your schedule as a weapon. Which for me means that I block out time for the things that are uber important for me to achieve:
- prospecting
- writing
- product creation
Then I make sure that I take action on those things that I have deemed important.
The key thing for any of us is that if we want to do something, that means that we don’t have the ability to do something else.
It means acting intentionally.
Intentionally means: do what you need to do, not what you have to do.
