I have learned from experience that most of the time our goal achievement process is not a solo endeavor. Of course our goals are very personal, but the bigger the goal, the more likely that some guidance, instruction, and/or teamwork will come into play. Let me tell you about my friend, Red. He had a goal to write a book someday. In fact, he had a packet of manila folders that contained a couple of rough drafts of manuscripts. His problem… he had no idea how to publish a book. He asked around to others he knew who had written a book, and the costs they told him seemed out of reach. Long story short, he found out that I write and self-publish books on Amazon and asked me if I thought I could help him. We had our first meeting just 4 months ago when he gave me his manila folders to review. I could see this was something I could help him with and I sent him a quote, he approved, and I got to work. Today Chico and I went to Red’s place and took some videos and photos of him unboxing his first order of books. 🙌🏼 Red had kept praying over his goal to publish his stories, trusting that somehow God would make a way. I had kept praying over my goal to get a client that I could help publish a book. Our trust in God to lead us in the right direction, to learn the necessary things, to cross paths with the right people, and our willingness to accept help is essential to achieving our goals. ➡️ Was there a time when someone unexpectedly stepped in and helped you achieve a goal?

I believe that my renewed commitment to making my body move, sweat, and circulate must include danceable tunes! 🪩🎶 Just completed 30+ minutes of musical movement. (No waltzing here-club dance mix all the way!) My dancercise goals: lower cholesterol, lower A1C, lower weight. (I still need to record exact beginning and target numbers in my journal.) Care to join me? Post your favorite bouncy tune below and how many minutes you moved to the music! 👯‍♀️

When you hear a statement that someone makes that just hits you a certain way, do you grab your journal (or your phone notes📱) and write it down to read again later? (I totally do!) Had one (or more 😆) of those moment this morning listening to Seth Godin. (Great marketing master.) He said, (when asked about his legacy), "𝑰 𝒂𝒔𝒌 𝒎𝒚𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒇, '𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒆 𝒐𝒇 10 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒔 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒌 𝒎𝒆 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒅𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐𝒅𝒂𝒚? 𝑺𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒅𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕, 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒖𝒏𝒓𝒆𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒃𝒖𝒕 10 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒔 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝑰'𝒍𝒍 𝒃𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒈𝒍𝒂𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑰 𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒅 𝒖𝒑 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒅𝒊𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕.'" At it's core, every goal on your list is the result of a decision you made at some point to take 🅰🅲🆃🅸🅾🅽 on an idea, a daydream, or a heart-felt vision. (Even if that action was simply getting it out of your head and putting onto paper.) 📝 Think of one idea that has been simmering in your heart for a while now, and you're ready to show up for your future self and just 🆂🆃🅰🆁🆃 it.

I made a little change to one of our Categories: I changed Goals Progress to Daily Wins. Sometimes I think it helps to be able to tell somebody what we just did, such as: I walked 5000 steps today! or I read 5 pages a day for a week! You know, stuff like that. Let’s post our daily wins and cheer each other on! *\o/*

When it comes to setting goals, what kind of support would serve you the best right now? Please choose the closest to your current situation below. I'm using this info to create the best tools possible to support you in your goal setting efforts. I'm so excited about the forward momentum we can achieve together! Here’s what I want you to know as you answer this… There is no “wrong” place to be. You may be full of ideas but not sure where to start. Maybe you started strong and lost momentum somewhere along the way. Or you may be quietly wondering if it’s even possible anymore. I'm pretty sure that every single one of us has experienced most of situations below at some point (I know I have) and it's all simply a matter of learning and growing. We got this!
