It’s now just past July 1- I can’t believe that half of 2009 is over and then I think: What have I accomplished?
Dates like these are good to pause and reconsider your goals for the year. What were those New Year’s Resolutions you made? For those of you that don’t want to go back and look at my blog to see what my resolutions were, here you go:
1. I will stop checking the stock market on an hourly basis. Stop watching cable news. It just makes me mad.
My Progress: This still continues to be a daily struggle for me. The media does not stop spreading doom and gloom. I limit myself to only reading the morning newspaper and not watching news before bedtime.
2. I will give more of my time to people that need it but can’t afford to pay for it. I will hand out more books and audios to people that can’t afford to buy it.
My Progress: I have done alot of this. I have volunteered more of my time for those who are between opportunities and local non-profits. I have sent free books to those that are out of work who can’t afford to buy them.
3. I will continue the Business Bounce Group on a weekly basis for clients.
My Progress: I have sent regular content to all my subscribers weekly, but I need to continue to strive to share high quality value to them. What type of help would you like to see from me?
4. I will finish my next book on Crazy Customer Service.
My Progress: 95% Done, It’s now called BAM! Delivering Customer Service in A Self Service World. Look for it in October.
Don’t use this opportunity to be critical of yourself or flog yourself for not meeting your goals. July is a good time to evaluate and adjust your goals based on new knowledge, conditions and outlook.
What do you plan to change?
