Hope is not a strategy. The failure to heed this principle in today’s volatile economy could have dire consequences to your career, finances, and family. This year developing a comprehensive set of goals and a plan for attaining those goals in more important than ever. You simply cannot afford to put this off or replace planning with empty resolutions. In the New Year, despite the current economic crisis, opportunities for success will be abundant. Smart people know this and are preparing to seize those opportunities. The question you must ask yourself today is, “I am I willing to do the hard work of planning and goal setting so that I capture these opportunities.” Or “Will I rest my fortunes on empty promises and hope.”
The single biggest mistake people make when planning and goal setting is the failure to write it down. A plan is not a plan unless it is written down. You must put pen to paper and put your goals and targets into writing. To help you, Jeb Blount, bestselling author of Power Principles, has developed a FREE 2010 Goals and Planning Guide.
