Setting Yourself Up for Continued Success

by Michaeline on January 16, 2010

While a feeling of accomplishment is something to be enjoyed, you might also take a little time today to consider some bigger goals you could set to keep the momentum going. Simply give some thought to the goals you’ve accomplished thus far, and think about the next logical steps to pushing your level of success even higher. Then come up with some clear action steps you can put into motion once your period of celebration has run its course.

We can keep the process of personal growth going strong if we continuously keep reaching higher in our aspirations. When we first accomplish a goal, we understandably feel proud of our achievements and may be tempted to stop where we are. By choosing to see our goals as an ongoing process of personal accomplishment, we will understand the importance of setting continuous goals. As we keep stretching and growing beyond what we believed was possible, we continue to improve our life circumstances and gain a greater sense of confidence about our own abilities. This allows us to achieve even greater results later.

While you are enjoying your celebrations today, you can devote some of your positive energy to forming even bigger goals to keep moving forward or even leaping forward.

Grab the Reins

by Michaeline on January 9, 2010

There is a lot going on in the world today and that can contribute to us feeling off balance. Sometimes it all feels overwhelming but you can control your piece of the world. You can read ideas from the article “10 things you can change right now” in Women’s Day (January 2010) magazine by Susan Sulich.

Sulich proposes “Minor changes, like a haircut, may be all it takes to spur you on to bigger ones.” If you are looking to dream big and take some leaps this year a small update in your surroundings can boost your confidence and motivate you to go for more change.

So shake things up as suggested by the article’s author… buy a new shade of lipstick or nail polish or new accessory. Maybe you can do an upgrade in your environment such as a new DVD for the car ride to work or clearing the mail pile on the counter and setting up a pretty basket to place your mail in. There is a similar article  posted on the Women’s Day website should you choose to read more.

So grab the reins and change one small thing. What will it be? I just bought a new shade of green eye liner.

What will I change next? What will you change next?
