Steps to preparing for a successful year
2016 is
approaching and a new year seems to be a time when people have high expectations
of receiving new blessings. As the
current year ends, you might be creating New Year’s resolutions, setting goals
to start a business, lose weight, save money, build your credit, clean your
home, change your hair or attitude, learn a new trade or desire to receive a new
degree.
Whatever your
plans are, they can only succeed with proper planning. Begin by taking ACTION and taking control of our own life. In planning, consider the follow
steps;
1.
Write
your goals down on paper and post it in a place that is visible so you can stay
encouraged {Habakkuk 2:2}
2. Submit your goals
to the Lord in prayer {Matthew 21:22}
3. Organize one goal
at a time, by breaking them down into small and specific goals; identify what items
you will need or what training you will need.
4.
Set a start date and
an end date for term short term or long term.
5. Create a step by
step list of how to reach that goal.
6. Evaluate your
current goals from this year; determine what was successful and what was not a
success. (Don’t focus on the past. Use past goals to determine what you can do
better)
7. Get rid of
things (or people) that keep you from reaching your goals. {2 Corinthians 5:27}
8. Be realistic in
what you are able to do right now and what resources you have available to you.
(If you lack certain resources, research opportunities that will assist you in
obtaining those resources)
9. Share your goals
with someone who will hold you accountable and encourage you. {Deuteronomy
3:28}
10. Revisit your organized
list weekly and even daily to keep track of what goals you are reaching.
11.
Celebrate
every Success!
12.
Remember,
plans may change. Don’t be discouraged. Do
your Best.
Set a new deadline if needed, follow these steps again and believe God.
13.
Enjoy
the remainder of this year.
