That's right! The year is almost half over or, if you want to look at it more positively in
relationship to achieving your goals, there is still 50% of the year left!
Speaking of the year, last year we released a special online at-your-pace training program called You in A Year. And in that program we cover a process that we call, The 12
Cs. We start with Challenge, Concentrate, Crystallize.(Are you CLEAR about your #1 goal?)
Then we move onto Clues, Choices and Consequences, (Are you willing to give up something you have now for something you want more in the future?)
Then we
cover Core and Coaching, Courage, Control, Commitment, and Commencing. (Courage is the singular virtue that guides this whole process!)
How many goal setting programs does it take? As many as it takes to reach your goals.
If you take a rock, and you whack it
with a hammer, it may not break. But if you then whack it again, and you keep whacking it over and over suddenly it might crack open on the 100th hit. So now here is the question: did it crack open because of the 100th hit or did all 99 previous whacks at the rock somehow weaken it?
Sometimes we speak at companies and someone will walk up after and say, 'I’ve heard that
message before, you know, I’ve heard that for 20 years but something about the way you said it - how you said it today - that it opened my eyes and I finally got it!'
It's easy to think, wow, how could you not get it from the first time? It’s because each time you hear something it’s another little whack. You hear it again, and you hear it again, and you think five people have said that, and I've heard that 10 times, or man, I’ve heard that
for 15 years now, and then someday someone shares that idea or strategy and suddenly it’s like you’re ready and the rock cracks open.
So, if you're feeling a little lost, unfocused, or discouraged as we come into the middle of 2015 and you feel like this program could help you, take a look at YouInAYear.com and be sure to use this special coupon code (GFN1) so that it takes the program from just $147 to an even easier investment of just $97.
Either way, the lesson of the rock is to keep learning, keep listening and keep reading. Sometimes it takes a little time for things to sink in or have the full impact. But when they do that's all that matters!
