New Year- Only for You
But a great idea, without a map of how to get there, can be great and frustrating. If you are currently working at Walmart and your main goal is to educate senior Judo CEOs, then you can be forgiven for feeling depressed.
On the road to your high calling, Vision 1 is a bridge that crosses the gorge from here to there. The year is long enough to accomplish great things, especially if you stick to this principle. And it is short enough that you can make some predictions about what the world, and your health, will look like (the end of this epidemic, let's hope?).
To create your 1 Year Vision, just think about your life 365 days from today. Where do you live and with whom? What do you do for a living and how much do you earn and save? What have you learned, and who are you?
When I exercise on January 1st, it will probably look like this:
No doubt I will add more, but you get the idea. Note that I have written my opinion as if it had already happened, because if you put your point of view in this way, your understanding works tirelessly to close the gap between truth and opinion.
Set New Year's Goals
Now that we have the world of our lives, with a comprehensive review of our past year, and with a clear guide to where we are going at the end of 12 months, it is time to mark some of the milestones. we are on the verge of entering our best year.
Write down your goals in the “long list.”
As you finish, ideas will flow over what you would like to accomplish in the next 12 months, such as starting a business, and situations you would like to improve, such as extra fun. Call it your photo list or your “kitchen sink” list — everything goes into it.
If you are like me, there will be so many shiny things you can chase, more than you can handle in a year. To be successful, you will need to make difficult decisions about priorities.
But ignore the truth for a minute, and write down all the goals you would like to follow this year if you had an unlimited number of clones.
To arouse other ideas, use these sections to guide you:
1. Finance - How much money do I want to make and save? How do I plant? What toys do I need?
2. Self-improvement - What new skills do you want to learn? What skills do you want to improve? What habits do you want to incorporate?
3. Relationships - What do I want in my romantic, family and friendship relationships? How is my home life?
4. Career / job / business - What projects do I want to work on? With whom? What goals will I set for myself?
5. Health and fitness - What do I want with my body? How do I want to eat and exercise?
6. Emotions - How do I want to feel, most of the time? What makes me smile?
7. Time - How is my due date? Where do I spend my precious resources?
8. Donation - How will I repay you? How much money does it go to the right things? Where can I work for others?
These may be goals you haven't fully listed on your list last year. Or you may decide to focus on more productive activities.
In some cases, you may find that you need to focus on areas that need improvement, such as your public health.
Write ALL in one alphabetical order. Now that you have left nothing out, you can begin to prioritize.
Choose your goals.
The law is an important tool that we can use as we compile a “long list” of essentials.
Ask, What 20% of the tasks on my list, if completed, would produce the best results?
I have written some of my goals for 2020 earlier, but yours may be: “Earn X dollars a month,” “Write and publish my book,” “Sign 30 new clients,” or “Learn to play 10 new songs on the guitar. ”
I suspect a few might be even better, but I tend to take a lot (sounds familiar to you?)
What's more than this and it will broadcast very little. Write them as headings in a scroll (see below for template).
Set up benchmarks and action items.
Big goals are not achieved by a big jump, but by a series of small steps. Under each heading “title,” write a few measurable benchmarks, which, if you reach them, will help you get closer to each goal.
For example, suppose your goal is to start a business and make $ 100,000 in profit. Under this heading you can write, "Grow my email list to 5,000 subscribers" and "Book 10 times a month for $ 850 per session."
In addition to the benchmarks, you can also list measurable action items that will support your goals, such as, “Write a business plan” and “Work with a business coach.”
You can start a one-page document that looks like this:
Choose your second goals.
There will be things on your long list that will never be the main goals but you still want to take care of yourself in the coming year.
In this section you can also add the habits you want to do — activities that have no end, but which, when repeated over and over again, help support Target destination.
When choosing daily routines, you might choose “Meditation,” “Journalist,” and “Get up at 6:00 am during the week.” Weekly routines may include “Call my brother,” “Go for a walk,” and “Saturday without a screen.”
Write your list of second goals under your first project, on the same page. That may seem like a lot
Print and submit your Main Goal List.
There is an in-depth importance to this work — in determining what is important to you, and where you want to focus your energies for the next 365 days.
But this should not be the work of one person. Print and post (one page size!) 2021 Key Goals to the area you will see every day.
The best place is in the bathroom, so for two minutes while brushing your teeth the first thing in the morning, you can read them again.
Install systems
We have set clear, straightforward goals for ourselves, so we can now look at the duplication of The Office, right? False. The goals are helpful in setting our direction, but Atomic Habits author James Clear points out, "The results have little to do with the goals we set for ourselves and almost everything related to the plans we follow."
The losing sports team had a winning goal. A failed start had the goal of making millions. Goals are a necessary step, but they are not a sufficient step toward success. Like bathing, we need consistent, practical habits to avoid unpleasant side effects.
See Your Main Goal List in all its clear, straightforward, measurable glory (artwork, right?). What are some habits that you may need to work on — and which habits you may have to follow — to achieve most of your goals?
In the old business book Good to Great, researchers recommend that you get your "Hedgehog Concept" (something your company might be very good at), which is exactly what we did in the goal setting steps above. And that's like installing good systems, getting used to useful habits.
• Re-investing 20% of your profits into ongoing R&D;
• Providing free samples every Friday to farmers' markets;
With goals, you know when you have achieved it. But the plans involved continuous and open action; repetitive practices such as hand washing in 2020.
Choose new habits that will combine as pieces of the puzzle in your new system and write this in a separate document that you can print and paste next to the Main Goal List. Later, in the Weekly Schedule, we will begin to schedule time for these activities on our calendars.
Quarterly Planning
Review your life story, and choose your priorities for the coming year. If the Annual Plan is a vision of your life from 40,000 feet, then the Quarterly Plan will reduce us to a fair 10k.
Your Annual Planning Work is not completed until you have set intermediate goals. Three months, or a quarter of your year, is as good as an active unit of time. Why?
Three months is associated with a change of seasons. It is far enough to give you time for deep development in your goals, but it is not long enough for you to move forward without stopping to show.
And just a little bit longer is enough to make you feel pressured — good pressure — which will be the antidote to procrastination. The last thing we want is to wake up on December 31 and realize that we have not achieved anything in our Annual Plan.
Quarterly Planning Task Shows Year, but will do this every three months throughout the year: January 1st, April 1st, July 1st and October 1st.
Update
Start by reviewing the past three months (you have already done this by January 1 with your Annual Schedule). Ask what has worked, what can be improved, how you feel, list your achievements, and review your financial summary.
Create Your 3 Month Vision
In the Annual Plan, we set out a year-long vision: a worthwhile, but lifelong desire. Now, we will get more granularity and paint a picture of your next three months, a time that will pass. Let us not let it slip from our grip.
Write down what your life looks like at the end of the next 90 days. Have you started a new exercise routine? Created a website for your new business? Build that shed in the back of the house?
Watch it. Feel it. Live before it becomes a reality. More than anything else you can do, this job will build a strong motivation to follow this dream life you are chasing.
Set Goals
Now, select specific goals for the next three months. This will not require much time or thought, as you will use your Annual Plan to direct your efforts.
Print and post your Quarterly Plan on the wall next to your Annual Plan. You can reuse the Template of the Year; just translate the document entitled "First Quarter of 2021."
Select Your Systems
You now see that the Quarterly Plan is a smaller version of the Annual Plan following the pattern: You will select a few goals to complete during your Quarterly Review, but that may not be the case with your systems. Your habits may not change much as the quarter passes, but if your goals change drastically, so should your plans.
The sixth rule is this: Your systems (practices) should be small and useful agents that support your quest for your goals. Each quarter, follow those steps that lead you to your quarterly goals. It can be challenging to limit or discard systems, especially if you are busy with your current habits. But you just have more time per day. Use the Essentialist mantra, and do less but better.
Sample Quarterly Program
First quarter
Was it your Number 1 goal of the year to build your business? Then you can set, In your First Term Plan, the goals you will cover: Build a website, collect 1,000 email subscribers, and earn one-tenth of your annual revenue goal.
Second quarter
Your website is built and actually hosts specific visitors. Luckily, you reached 20% of your revenue goal by the end of March. Congratulations!
If you do your quarterly review on April 1, then ask, "What went well?" It sets itself the goal of finding new suppliers for different brands and shadow models, as well as investing in other paid ads.
You also realize that you are far from the goal of your email subscribers, so you are competing for the prize of your best-selling products by exchanging email addresses.
Print and submit your Quarterly Program, replacing the old one with this one.
Third quarter
Ah, July 1 already. Where is the time to go? In your quarterly review you see that these gifts are popular. You flew over 1,000 email subscribers, and you're on your way to 5,000. You have set a goal of doubling this number by the end of the term.
Unfortunately, most of the new products you chose to advertise were duds — no one wanted those 500 googly-eye glasses you bought for “very good money.” By the middle of the year, you have only 30% of your annual income goal.
You set yourself a new three-month goal of multiplying your product promotions where sales are growing slowly. Also, print and submit your Quarterly Plan, using your Annual Plan as your North Star.
Fourth quarter
You set a goal to benefit from that. But you learned a lot about your customers this year and they are not buyers.
You are planning to "buy nothing" at those traditional shopping days, and instead run a fundraiser for a caring cause, with the goal of maximizing your email list 10x and creating media attention. Your gambling pays off, and you bring in so much traffic that your website crashes. You close the year with 150% of your income goal.
This brings you the full circle on January 1, when you will repeat the Annual Planning process. You will find varying degrees of success with this system, but by sticking to it, you will be far more successful than you ever set for the lax New Year's resolution.
However, monitoring your progress every three months is not enough to increase your productivity. How do you keep yourself motivated and on the road between those 13-week blocks?
Finally
To be successful, our goals must be non-judgmental:
• It is big enough to stretch, but it is still within our grasp
• Concrete, which has strong end dates, benchmarks and action materials
• Aligned with our main purpose, not someone else's expectations
• And in pursuit of these goals, we must understand that whatever is done will require patience
A final word: we need to constantly monitor our progress so that we can adjust our approach to our goals. That is why Quarterly, Weekly and Daily Exams are key supporting characters in our Annual Plan.
Just don’t change course too much, too often. Be patient, and give your efforts time to produce results. Have fun with the process.
If you follow the system outlined here, your success is guaranteed.
This may seem like a lot of work, and it is. But there is a lot of work, stress and missed opportunities involved in not having a plan, or a bad plan, and then working most of your year to repair the damage.
Me? I found this system very addictive and exciting. I look forward to January 1, when I will make myself a pot of coffee, close the door, and take a few days off to do my most important work of the year: clarify what I really want in life.
Abraham Lincoln said, "Give me six hours to cut down the tree and spend the first four hours sharpening an ax."
He knew that careful preparation led to extraordinary results.
Let's sharpen the ax!
