What an exciting time! I've started accepting clients and it is such an honour to be able to work with people to help them meet important personal and professional goals! And it's just getting better! We're in discussions with 3 corporations right now to bring professional coaching to middle management and their sales force!
This is just the beginning!
Here's something to help set you up this month.
Brian Tracy, author of Flight Plan – The Real Secret of Success contributed an article to Costco Connection magazine back in 2008. In it, Tracy states that all successful people do 4 things:
1. They set clear goals
2. They take risks beyond their comfort zone
3. They accept feedback
4. They self correct
Using the analogy of air travel, Tracy offers these steps to success:
Choose your destination.
Decide in advance exactly what goals you want to achieve in each area of your life
Review your flight operations.
Gather information to determine all of the various ways you could achieve a particular goal
Write your flight plan.
Only 3 % of adults have written goals, and they earn 10 times as much as people who live day-to-day
Prepare for your journey.
Take the time to get everything done before your journey
Take off at full throttle.
Be prepared to work wholeheartedly, with all of your energy and determination, for a long time before your achieve any worthwhile goal
Plan for turbulence.
Expect setbacks, disappointment and reversals as a normal part of achieving anything worthwhile
Make course corrections.
If something doesn’t work, try something else, and then something else again
Accelerate learning and progress.
Learn from every experience. Look into every setback as an opportunity to grow. Seek valuable lessons contained in your roadblocks and obstacles.
Avoid shortcuts and other mirages.
Be prepared to pay the full price of success, in advance. Forget easy money and get-rich schemes. There aren’t any.
Master your fears.
Develop the habit of courage by confronting your fears rather than avoiding them.
Persist until you succeed.
Resolve in advance that you will never give up until you achieve your goal.
