If you\u2019re sticking to your resolutions for 2018, that\u2019s awesome, but the truth is that most of us are not. And it\u2019s not about our commitment or desire to make ourselves better, it\u2019s because resolutions are typically about one lofty goal. We don\u2019t say \u201cI want to lose 10 pounds by Easter\u201d or \u201cI want to save $5,000\u201d, we say \u201cI want to lose weight\u201d or \u201cI want to save money.\u201d Without specific goals and planned rewards, it\u2019s hard to stay motivated.<\/p>\n<p>It all comes down to goal setting. If you\u2019re focused on a goal that\u2019s too wide or too lofty without smaller goals along the way, it\u2019s hard to find success and fulfillment. So if your business goal is to \u201cbe more profitable in 2018,\u201d you are doing yourself a disservice. Without clear, milestone-based goals, it\u2019s almost impossible to see yourself achieving that goal, especially if things don\u2019t start off strong.<\/p>\n<p>So <a href=\"http:\/\/thegrowthcoach.com\/find-coach\/\">let\u2019s talk about the second quarter<\/a>. For starters, don\u2019t stress about those resolutions \u2013 the only person holding most of us accountable for resolutions is ourselves. Let yourself off the hook so you can realign your focus and start setting more milestone-based, attainable goals. Then set yourself clear guidelines for reaching those goals and a timeline for revisiting your progress. If you are focused more closely on specific goals you\u2019ll be able to reach your larger goal more quickly and with more motivation along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Also, don\u2019t be disappointed that you\u2019re changing your plans. It\u2019s called adapting and the best business leaders do it all the time. If you waited until the next New Year to set new goals and resolutions, you\u2019d be losing at least nine months of time you could be spending on making your business bigger, better and stronger.<\/p>\n<p>As we look ahead to the second quarter, schedule a meeting with yourself. Block out an hour on your schedule to think about what goals you should set, what resolutions you want to scratch and what you and your team can be doing tomorrow to make the business even more awesome.<\/p>\n<p>Need help getting things off the ground?
