Take Action On Your 2024 Goals

It is 9 days
into 2024.

If you haven’t yet
taken action
on at least one of your goals,
do that today.

If it is a smaller goal,
consider
completing it.

If it is a larger goal,
take the first step.

You set these goals
because they are important
to you.

Even if they are fun goals,
they are fun goals
you want to reach.

Take action on at least
one of those goals
today.

Complete A Small Goal Today

I’ve talked about the value
of putting small goals
and fun goals
on our list of goals
to complete
in 2024.

Today, complete
one of the small goals.

That will ensure,
on Day 1,
that
2024 is a success
for you.

No matter what else happens,
you’ve completed one of your goals.
You’ll always have that knowledge.

And you will start the new year
on an emotional high.
It will give you
the confidence
and the motivation
you need
to complete the next goal.

Complete a small goal today.

Your 2023 Resolutions

We’re almost at that time of year
when we talk with our buddies
about our
2023 resolutions
and we craft some new resolutions
for 2024.

If you’ve reviewed
your 2023 resolutions
and you discovered
you hadn’t completed or kept
any of them,
there’s good news!

There’s still time
to complete them.

2023 isn’t over.
Not yet.
We have over 20 days
left in the year.

That’s definitely
enough time to tackle
or start to tackle
one of your resolutions
for the year.

Make the most of 2023.
Complete a resolution
or goal.

Keep A Diary

A loved one has issues
completing projects.
He told me
he didn’t know why.

So I asked him
to write me a weekly letter,
talking about
his projects
and what he’s done on them.

I reminded him
about these letters
for a year.
I saved each one.

Then I gave them back
to him
and told him to read them.

It was an eye-opener for him.
Habits that didn’t seem
too bad
in the moment
were obviously a big problem
over time.

When I’m trying to make
a change,
I keep a diary on the topic.

Writing down the steps I’ve taken
is powerful.
It ensures I’m doing things
consciously.

Reading what I’ve done
allows me to see more clearly
errors I repetitively make.
I can then make corrections.

If you want to make a change
in a certain area,
consider keeping a diary
of it.

There’s Still Time

Every year,
at the beginning of December,
I revisit my goals for the year.

Some goals I’ve achieved.
Some goals are no longer relevant.
Some goals I haven’t yet tackled.

It is tempting to push
the not-yet-started goals
to the next year.

But if I do that,
they compete with
next year’s goals.
I might never complete them.

And there’s no reason to do that.
There are 31 days left in this year.
That’s enough time
to complete or start
a few of my remaining goals.

Look at your goals
for the year.
Attempt to complete
or start some of them.
