101 Goal Setting Breakthroughs: A 31 Day Blog Series That Will Make 2008 Your Best Year Ever!
Posted under Goals and Goal Setting
Life is getting ready to be a whole lot better for you.
If you have tried and failed, tried again and failed, there is still hope. Since today begins a new year, you can choose to treat it as any other day of the year, or you can treat it as a new beginning. New beginnings can fill us with hope and dreams. However, sometimes those hopes and dreams can fall a little short if our motivation wanes.
The next 31 days I will be posting 101 proven methods you can use to achieve your dreams in 2008.
I want this to be the end-all be-all goal setting breakthrough series. The excuses stop here. You’ll have every tool you need to get started and follow through for the rest of the year. If you adopt just one of these principles every other day, you’ll have enough insight to get you through the year.
What will 2008 be like, if every day you are focused and motivated 100% on your top goals? That is the main objective of this series.
If you just stay on track, show up every day, take the effort every day and not quit every day, 2008 will be a breakthrough year. You can even exceed the last five years if you set your mind to it. But there is one important step — you have to take the first step! Nobody else can do it for you.
I have broken the list up into four different areas.
1. How to set goals
2. How to motivate yourself
3. How to win the mental game of goal setting
4. How to follow through
5. Additional goal achievement tips
- I’m sure the next 30 will be enlightening, exciting and you’ll amaze yourself. I too found myself inspired as I laid the groundwork for this series.Many of these strategies go in order, so I highly recommend you subscribe to my RSS feed so you don’t miss a step. If not, set a reminder for yourself and check back every day. In order to fit in 101 tips in 31 days, that averages to slightly more than 3 posts per day!Happy New Year! And here’s to making 2008 your very best year ever!

Every new year comes with the promise of new beginnings. However, it is ultimately up to us to make that change for ourselves. Personally, I’m interested to see where this series takes me in my own goal-setting interests. I think it’s time I learn to take tips down and actually put them to use.
Jen - Agreed, although we can’t be blamed for the hand we’re dealt. We are still responsible for how we play it.
I’m rooting for ya!

[...] To make time for your current top goals, you have to stop doing something you are already doing. What are you willing to give up? We all have to make sacrifices. Are you going to stop watching TV? Are you going to stop surfing the web mindlessly? Personally, when I first started my journey 22 years ago I gave up late night bar-hopping and parties. That’s not to say I don’t attend a party here and there - I do. But I don’t make it an every other night occurrence. [...]
