ONE Thing You Shouldn't Do In 2020!
Welcome to 2020!
As you enter into a new year, let me encourage you with one thing you shouldn’t do…
DON’T DRIFT
I’ve never known anyone who woke up one day and discovered they had drifted into the person they wanted to become or by chance accomplished the things they wanted to accomplish.
Instead, what I’ve discovered in my own life and what I’ve observed in coaching hundreds of others is that…
Drifting never takes us in the direction we want to go.
Never!
Here are 3 simple questions that can help you be more intentional as you head into 2020.
First, ask yourself,
Who do I want to further become in 2020?
Being always precedes doing. Who we are becoming is always more important than what we are accomplishing. So before you get to what you want to accomplish in 2020, first ask yourself who do you want to further become? Do you want to become more loving, more joyful, more disciplined, more organized, more enthusiastic, more hopeful, more inspiring, etc. The external fruit we produce always comes from the inward seed we sow.
Second, ask yourself,
What do I want to accomplish in 2020?
Do you want to write a book? Do you want to lose 20 pounds? Do you want to pay off your debts? Do you want to take a special vacation to the mountains? Start with something that’s realistic for you to accomplish and then keep your list somewhere around 3 to 5 goals - max.
Third, ask yourself,
How am I going to do these things I’ve listed in questions 1 and 2 above?
This doesn’t (and really shouldn’t) be overly complicated. This is where I see many people trip themselves up. They make the plan so detailed and so cumbersome that it’s impossible for them to accomplish what they’ve set out to do, and then usually what happens is that they give up on their goals all together.
One way to keep this from happening is to make the plan clear and yet keep it simple.
So, as you enter into 2020, again let me encourage you...
DON’T DRIFT!
Be intentional with who you want to become and what you want to accomplish and then be specific on how you plan on doing so.
If I can serve you live a more intentional life in 2020, I'd be honored to do so.
