PUT LIFE INTO THOSE OLD GOALS

 

A few weeks ago I heard a story about an Olympic team that was dominating in their sport. Their coach was asked to explain the techniques that he had employed in coaching that aided in their performance. The coach stated that he aimed at getting his team to focus on making one percent improvements in each category of the sport. 

How does this translate to our goals? Many of us set goals at the beginning of the year as it represents a fresh start. However, as we approach February many of us have stopped working at our goals. The key is to take smaller steps which will prevent overwhelm and fatigue. 

One area that I aim to improve on is discipline and structure in raising my little ones. I enjoy reading parenting books that give great advice but cannot seem to find that hour each day to read. I have cut down my reading expectation to five minutes instead of thirty to sixty. Each morning I'm up at 4am and reading is now a part of my morning routine.  

Give the one percent change a try. Small incremental changes in each area that will boost your self confidence and over time will yield the results you desire.
