[O.W.W.L. Success Tip] Did you stop before crossing the finish line?

December is here (yay, my birth month!) and some of us have not reached our goals for 2014 yet. What about you? If you have not, are you tempted to throw in the towel and give up, expecting to start over again in 2015? Or are you still determined to make the most of the time remaining?

If you are tempted to cave in and let the holidays be your excuse, don’t do it! It could cost you precious time and money!

O.W.W. L. Success Tip: Instead of worrying that you haven’t met your annual goals, complete the year powerfully by setting a short-term goal right now for this month and do what it takes to meet it by December 31. You will be proud of yourself and set yourself up to jump-start 2015 instead of having to make up for lost time and effort.

Money example: You planned to pay off your debt in 2014 but did not. You know if you spend like you do every holiday season, your credit card bill will eat you alive in January. Instead, set a December goal to pay for everything with cash, check, or debit card. You might also apply for a complimentary “Weight of Money” breakthrough session as a gift to yourself.

Weight example: You have not lost the weight you planned, and the holidays bring temptations you can’t resist. Instead of gaining another 10 – 20 pounds, set a December goal to taste one bite of whatever you want and to only eat one serving of those things you REALLY love. Also set a December goal to get 20 minutes or more of movement every day. You might also apply for a complimentary “Lose Weight for Life” breakthrough session as a gift to yourself. I invite you to visit www.JanisPullen.com/weight/ to apply for your session at no charge.

Leadership example: You have not built your business to the place you intended for 2014. You don’t believe you can do this in December because of a belief that no one wants to buy your products or services during the holidays. Instead of giving up before you cross the finish line, change your perspective. This is the time people ARE investing their money on gifts to themselves and others. Be a role model for yourself, your clients, and your team by connecting with people in December to discover how you can serve and support them. Set a goal for the month and create an action plan to achieve it. You might also apply for a complimentary “Leadership” breakthrough session as a gift to yourself.
