Instead of feeling defeated by this year, why not take back control now and choose to end the year on a high? I’ve had so many people say that they can’t wait to see the back of 2020.

When talking about their dreams and goals they believe it’s all too hard; they say they’ll wait until there’s a vaccine or until the New Year.

If tomorrow was 1st January 2021 would there be much difference? No! All you’re doing is pushing the inevitable out by a few months.

Maybe it’s time to draw a line in the sand and ask, “what do I really want from the rest of this year?”

There are some crucial things that make the difference between thriving and merely surviving:

1.The right mindset – be open and willing to learn, receptive to change, see more than one point of view and aim to be flexible

2. Create a step by step plan to follow – give yourself time to understand what you really want and why you want it

3. Imagine it – you cannot be what you cannot see

4. Learn to challenge the limiting beliefs that are holding you back

5. Create a plan, starting with small achievable goals

6. Take daily action

7. Give yourself permission to be successful!

All you need is a road map.

Instead of feeling defeated by this year, why not take back control now and choose to end the year on a high? A clear plan and the support of a coach could have you celebrating your best year ever!
