To all our highly valued clients and acquaintances:
It’s mid-year. Given your original vision for how you started 2025, how’s it going for you?? Any news you can use?? Did you get blindsided by any unexpected consequences or turn of events that have you recalculating??
To say that the last 6 months have yielded a series of unexpected surprises would be an absolute understatement. You certainly don’t need my recap.
What are you learning? What worked? Didn’t work? Given that, now what?
Outside of any larger zeitgeist, most people also had their own plot twists.
As you may have heard before, the surprise would be to be surprised by surprises. Flexibility, adaptability and resiliency are the currency of our era.
A definition to consider, as you reimagine your future game plans:
“Success is the progressive realization of predetermined, worthwhile, personal goals.” – Paul J. Meyer, pioneer of the self-improvement industry
Maybe you are reconsidering your priorities, timelines, and expectations for what’s possible for you in the next 6 months? Maybe you’ll reconstitute or redeem some key relationships? Maybe add some additional resources??
As most of us already know, things don’t always go according to plan, and they always go better with a plan. It may be a good time to reframe our perspectives and generate some fresh energies to fuel our future growth.
Another principle that you may want to consider: “If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is simply because your goals are not clearly defined.” – Paul J. Meyer.
As you head into July and the 2nd Half of 2025, you may want to quickly revisit, revise, rewrite, and update your game plans for the next 90 Days.
To that end, here’s a 90 Day Worksheet. (21 Goals for the Next 90 Days)
Not only can setting up our own personal goals be a vital step to clarify our most desired/needed accomplishments, but it also allows us to experience the extraordinary fulfillment that comes with making an authentic difference.
There are probably a bazillion books and articles out there on this topic and an abundance of free internet education. (The Mighty Google University)
Here are key ideas we highly advocate you practice as you set goals:
Write down your goals – make ‘em crystal clear, compelling, actionable.
Plan – those who don’t plan for their future won’t have much of a future.
Get support – collaborate with people who are equally or more committed, inspired, and capable. Fully fuel yourself with dialogue, mentors, coaches.
Celebrate – acknowledge your progress & energize yourself along the way.
What might be a critical idea, with all else to go on a Not-to-Do List??
Warren Buffett and Bill Gates were independently asked if there was just one word to describe their incredible long-term success, what would it be?
Avoid wasting time on things you can’t change. Starve all distractions. Feed your focus. You have the freedom and resourcefulness to make your own great choices, and in that light, I recommend – do what works best for you.
We each captain the ship of our own lives – we are the only ones who can navigate the directions for our own health, happiness and peace. If we are committed to improving in any of those areas, we can/must train ourselves.
“Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon, must inevitably come to pass!” Paul J Meyer
Be Master of Yourself. Take Charge. Focus on What You Can Control.
Live the kind of life that is worthy of you and brings you great joy.
Shall we talk?? Dialogue?? Brainstorm?? Plan?? Partner?? Collaborate??
Here’s To Your Most Fulfilling Joys & Indisputably Unstoppable Successes,
Don
