4 Weeks to hit your goals… NOW is the time

It’s mid-November and there are just over four weeks to go until the end of the year. I don’t know about you but at this point in the year, my brain is reminding me about all the things I have not done this year that I said I would. Don’t you just hate it when your brain wakes up in a judgey mood? 

Well I am here to give you some ideas on how to flip that mindset from a negative to a positive. If you’re up for a little pre-festive challenge then read on. 

Stepping towards your dream

I’d like you to sit down wherever you feel comfortable and have the least amount of distractions. Now write a list of what you have actually achieved this year (I’m old fashioned and like pen and paper).

Now I’d like you to write a second list of all the goals you set for either yourself/ your business or both at the start of this year and compare the two.

So how close are you? Are you afraid of looking in case you’ve failed already? Feeling a slight panic because time is running out? But hold up, wait a minute!  What’s really happened this year?  How many steps did you really take towards your Dream? 

I bet it’s a hell of a lot more than you realise.  I dare you to count each and every one and recognise that each step forward is a step in the right direction. You are in the process of realising your dream.  You are already doing it!

Our brain likes to trick us

Do not let your brain confuse you because you are not at the promised land yet.  If you were 51 miles on your way of a 100 mile journey would you turn back or keep on going? Exactly! You have already worked so hard, why would you turn back? 100 miles going back and forth over old ground or100 miles moving forward? 

You still have over 4 weeks to go and hey why wouldn’t you go all out regardless? So let’s make them amazing and do things we’ve been putting off, because NOW is the time to write that email, make that call, create that content and serve your people. 

Make your heart sing and enjoy every moment, small steps equal big changes, so dream BIG. 

You’ve got this.

Love Denise
