Prepare for Your Great Year Ahead

Happy New Year 

The tick of the clock to midnight on January 1st, 2025 does not confer you with special powers to make the next 12 months as good as it can get in your life.

You have to do the work.

Step 1

Decide on the goals you want to aim for.

Step 2

Define the habits you want to sustain to keep you moving forward.

Step 3

Build the system you want to keep yourself in to ensure that your success is assured.

Step 4

Decide the relationships you want to surround yourself with who can get you faster to your goals.

Step 5

Develop your personal training plan for building the skills for you to win.

Simple enough, right?

The punchline is how you live it out.

I have only 3 goals for the year. They are huge enough to command all my attention.

More than that, to achieve them, I have to become someone more.

A bigger and better version of myself.

The habits and systems are taking shape.

The relationships are in place and the ones to be built are work-in-progress.

My regular personal training focuses on 4 areas - Spiritual, Personal Development, People Development and Communication Skills.

I’m adding 4 more just for this year - Sales, Negotiation, Human Nature & Money. They will expand my perspective.

Did I also tell you that I will be taking guitar lessons this year? Yes, I have signed up with my teacher already - twice a week.

I also intend to go back to my French & Spanish lessons.

I added these areas to activate certain aspects of my life.

The better I become in those areas, the more effective I become at achieving my goals and serving my family and the people who rely on me.

Setting myself up for a great year ahead.

Now it’s your turn to set yourself up right.

You can reply to this email if you need a bit of help.

Let’s make 2025 as good a year as it can be for you.

Keep winning at work and in life.
