Hi Chris and Susan here...
Right about this time of the year, millions of people worldwide are thinking about their 2022 resolutions
And if so you're about to make a huge mistake
Don't get us wrong...
Having goals is a priority if you're ever going to succeed at growing your business, achieving your weight goals or hitting your financial dreams
After all we wrote the book The Mindset Shift - Goal Setting Success Secrets
However, there's a small trick to setting and achieving goals that most people don't know about
They actually do quite the opposite
Making it almost impossible to actually achieve their goals and setting themselves up for failure...
Instead of success
It's one of the biggest reasons most people quit on their new year resolutions by the end of January
And that's something that will really take the toll on a business owner's motivation
And we really don't want that to happen to you
The hack is setting goals that are achievable
Which means you need to be realistic about your "standard of perfection" and "performance"
We promise you it's going to feel so much better and it's going to help remove the insane pressure people bully themselves into
Let us give you a personal example
For years, right around this time of year we would promise ourselves that this year will be different
We'd set the bar very high for working out and losing weight
And each time we would fail to meet those goals and end up feeling bad
We did that because we're both overachievers
What we wish we had done differently is pay more attention to our bodies
Because now it's a bit more difficult to shift that weight we've gained
It's hard to stay motivated and take massive action when you're stressed
So this year we're saying NO to those audacious goals and saying YES to:
- Slowing down
- Eating sensibly (no restrictive diets)
- Taking gentle daily exercise like walking
- Getting a full 7-8 hours sleep
That way we can achieve those other goals we have in mind without sacrificing the most precious asset - OURSELVES!
It's very similar to how business owners are setting their new year goals
If you too are starting 2022 with that amazing energy of "new year, new you" promising yourself that this year will be the year when you'll:
- learn everything you need to about social media so you can grow your business on channels like Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube etc
- figure out how to design beautiful and attractive social media posts... all by the end of January
- go live on Facebook and Instagram
- post 10 times a day on all your networks
- go from zero engagement to explosive growth overnight
