=======================

Did you know that most people have given up on their New Year's resolutions by now? 

Not me...because I don't make New Year's resolutions. 

But I do set goals. Most of my goals are targeted toward my business, but I do have some personal goals. Every year I'd set goals and hope I could figure out how to accomplish them. Not just hope, I'd work at it. 

              ~ I know that goals are results and you can't get results without action. ~

This is the difference between leading indicators and lagging indicators. Leading indicators are the actions you know you need to take to get the result you are looking for. Lagging indicators are the results you achieve from the action you take.

               If you aren't getting the results you're looking for, you gotta change the actions you take. 

In one of my favorite books, Atomic Habits, the author James Clear says: “You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Your goal is your desired outcome. Your system is the collection of daily habits that will get you there. This year, spend less time focusing on outcomes and more time focusing on the habits that precede the results.” 

                     "Winners and losers have the same goals." ―James Clear

OUCH! But it's true. Every Olympian wants the medal. Every candidate wants the job. The wanting isn't enough. It's a good start, but it's not enough. What you gotta get in place are the systems to support you in achieving your goals consistently.

One of the best systems you can put in place for moving you toward your goals while staying present to the people, experiences and opportunities that matter most is a Bonus Brain. 

"What the heck is a bonus brain?", I hear you ask.

A Bonus Brain is a group of tools that hold everything that needs to be remembered so your brain can be freed up to be more present, strategic, and creative. 

I'm going to be talking all about the power of a bonus brain in a masterclass I'm hosting this week. Head on over to eliseenriquez.com/masterclass to register. Registering for that masterclass could be your first action toward achieving your most important goal this year!
