MAKING THIS YEAR YOUR YEAR TO THRIVE

Posted on January 26, 2015 by Lynda Pedley MBA, One of Thousands of Career Coaches on Noomii.

Thinking about something will not make it happen. Thinking that you want to take holidays, does not transport you to your holiday destination. To make this year your best year, you need to: be clear about your priorities and what matters most to you; identify goals; and create an action plan that will keep you true to your commitments. Reflecting on the questions below will help you get started on making this your best year.

Best Year Action Plan to realize your goals this year
1. What do you want for you this year?
2. What is your most important Best Year desire, goal or intention?
3. Why does this matter to you?
4. What is the best possible outcome you seek?
5. What do you need to do in order to create this outcome?
6. What do you need to let go of to achieve it?
7. What do you need to change to achieve it?
8. What or who do you need to support yourself?
9. How will you measure your success?

Remember:
• Take some time to reflect on these questions.
• Go over these questions more than once to become really clear about what you will commit to.
• Giving your goal priority and allocating your time, effort and energy to this priority will give you the outcome you seek.
• It’s all about making choices that support your goal; and you have the power to make the choices that will see you succeed.
• If your goal will take you a while to achieve, divide it into smaller mini-goals.
• Celebrate your achievements along the way.
• Seek out the help of friends, family and professionals to support you in realizing your goals this year.
