Making 2019 a great year!

On today\\u2019s Pinks and\\xa0Blues episode\\xa0we will be answering the following questions:

Q: How do I make 2019 better than 2018?\\xa0 What am\\xa0I\\xa0not seeing that can help me do that?

Q: Did you celebrate\\xa0your\\xa0accomplishments of last year?

Q: Did you\\xa0discover\\xa0why you were success on your accomplishments and why you were not on what you did not accomplish?

The reason this works so well for me is because\\xa0

1.) Who doesn\\u2019t like\\xa0to\\xa0be\\xa0recognized\\xa0for their\\xa0accomplishments\\xa0and you should\\xa0recognize\\xa0yourself\\xa0for creating a goal, coming up with a plan, working the plan and finally completing it.

      • With\\xa0everything\\xa0that goes on day to day, you did it!\\xa0 You got it done and that needs to be celebrated.\\xa0 In general, we don\\u2019t celebrate ourselves enough.

2.)\\xa0Life will tell you what will work and what will not work.\\xa0\\xa0SO,\\xa0the questions\\xa0is:\\xa0 are you listening?

      • Things that worked well, should be repeated- because they worked.
      • Things that didn\\u2019t work well need to be recrafted so that you can find out how to make them work using the reason they didn\\u2019t work as a rebuilding point.

I mention the planning tool SMART to help define your goals.\\xa0 If you missed that go back to my first show this year, scaling uph2o.com/67 to list to that.

However SMART stands for:\\xa0Specific, Measurable,\\xa0achievable,\\xa0relevant, time bound and I have a\\xa0downloadable\\xa0chart to help you with this at scalinguph2o.com/smart.

Q: Trace one of my goals is to read more, can you please share your\\xa0recommended\\xa0reading list?

Q: When it comes to goal setting, I never get anything completed that I set out to.\\xa0 My job keeps me so busy that I have given up trying to even create goals.\\xa0\\xa0I\'m\\xa0stuck ,\\xa0I\'m\\xa0frustrated...\\xa0 What should I do?

      • Don\\u2019t feel alone.
      • We have all been there, if someone tells you they have never felt that same way, they are lying.
      • Don\\u2019t give up!

- Don\\u2019t give up on making yourself better and happier.

- When you accomplish\\xa0things,\\xa0you deem\\xa0valuable\\xa0in your life, your life gets better.

- Your\\xa0self-esteem\\xa0increases, your confidence increase, your knowledge increases.

- This helps all of your\\xa0relationships, including the one with yourself.

All this sounds great. Right?\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0so\\xa0what do you do with all of that I just said?

Let me give you some handles for that.

Life is about\\xa0decisions.\\xa0 Decisions\\xa0can be good or bad.

#1 I will not lie to myself even when the truth makes me feel bad about myself.

#2 I will prioritize what I want most over what I want now.

#3 I will not lead myself by myself
