Ok, you gotta read this one, but you get the point.
I talked to a someone today who is leaving for a new job, a new adventure…following dreams, but very concrete dreams.
In our conversation it came out that I had said something about writing goals down a few years ago that caused some reflection.
That reflection became thoughts which became action in the form of goals being written down.
Those goals turned into visible reminders and invisible ones too that propelled further action in terms of a definable action plan which is really a series of small decisions that push one forward creating energy and momentum as you go.
We never know the impact our words and actions have on others. Ever.
I saw what happened when we wrote goals down as a family…yes, every New Year’s Eve. It was a tradition, but a very important one.
I saw how those goals helped each of us focus and achieve.
I used the question, ‘Are we doers or viewers?’ many times with the boys.
ie, Are we going to watch life go by or be actively engaged and help others along the way.
Seeing the impact Chris continues to have shows how much you can influence…even in a short 17 years.
We still see a stream of comments on his Facebook page and we know his words and actions are still inspiring many today, young and old….er.
I know it’s not quite New Year’s…but if you have goals that you’ve thought about in your head for a long time but that’s where they’ve stayed, I’d challenge you to write them down.
You’ll be amazed at the results.
Be The Best.
Be The Best.
