take action

The following is an excerpt from Top Coaching Techniques.

1.      Choose something you really want – not something you think you SHOULD do.

2.      Set a goal that is specific and measurable – so you know you’ve reached it!

3.      Find a way to make it fun (it doesn’t have to be serious).

4.      Choose a meaningful halfway mark or milestone and ~celebrate~!

5.      Have a friend do it with you.

6.      Tell everyone what it is – it doesn’t exist until people know about it.

7.      For the tricky ones, have three friends check in with you to see how you’re going.

8.      Schedule a regular time of day or day of the week for your action.

9.      Put up a banner or screen saver reminding you of the benefits of your goal.
