Day 3- back to work

For many of us today is the first day back after the festive break for others it will be Monday. Regardless of when you go back why not do a little goal setting and planning before you do? 

There's always a great hype on 1st January around New Years resolutions and what you are going to change. And to be honest a huge percentage will have forgotten about them already. 

Why not then use the 3rd of January as your planning day? What would you like to achieve this year? Let focus on the positive and the achievable. 

Resolutions can be notoriously negative in that you want to stop doing something or lose something. These are very negative connotations. So why not look at what you can do? 

Whether it's becoming smoke free, or raising the profile of your business and engaging with more people or improving fitness levels I think these all sound much more achievable that stopping smoking, selling more and losing weight. 

The important thing though is how you manage it too. Break it down into daily chunks that you know you can achieve. Then tell someone. Accountability will make you more likely to succeed by over 50%!!  See the image below for more info on goal setting 

And as you can see from what you have just read. The language you use to sell something is important. Tomorrow I'll be talking a bit about copy writing and language use.
