Designing Your Best Year Ever! Goal Setting Workshop
- 1. Designing Your Best YEAR Ever! ® Goal-Setting Workshop The reason why most people face the future with apprehension instead of anticipation is because they don't have it well designed. Jim Rohn
- 2. Designing Your Best YEAR Ever! – How To You can either make a living or design a life. Jim Rohn Part One: Previous Year Accomplishments In Part One of the workshop, take the time to first reflect on the past year and its many blessings. In each area of life, write out as many “accomplishments” and experiences that you are grateful for from the past year. This exercise will not only help you to remember all the good from the past year, but it will also encourage you to reach even higher in 2010! Part Two: Yearly Goals Part Two of the workshop is where your goal-setting for the upcoming year begins! Simply ask yourself, “What do I want?” and write out your answers for each of the areas of life listed. There is room to write out up to eight goals for each area of life so make sure to write out whatever comes to mind! Part Three: Yearly Primary Goals Next it is critical that you choose two primary goals from each of the seven areas of life that are more important to you than the rest. Look at your list of goals within each area of life and ask yourself, “What do I REALLY want?” The goals that “jump out” to you after asking yourself this question should most likely be your 2010 Primary Goals. Part Four: Yearly Focus Goals The final step of the Designing Your Best YEAR Ever! Goal-Setting Workshop is to choose one “Focus Goal” from each area of your life from the primary goals you just listed. Your “Focus Goals” are the goals that you are absolutely committed to seeing to completion in the upcoming year. After choosing a “Focus Goal” from each area of life, write the date when it is to be completed, why the completion of the goal is important to you and two sacrifices you will make this upcoming year to ensure that nothing stands in the way of it coming to pass! Upon the completion of this workshop, you will be among a very small percentage of individuals who have specific goals, in each of the areas of their life, for the upcoming year! So with that said, let’s get to work….
