It’s the third week in December, 2018 – have you taken stock of your year yet:- your accomplishments, setbacks, self improvements, reaching your goals?
You are where you are, and that’s okay!
It is time to look forward. Turn over a new calendar page, set new goals, decide what changes to make in yourself and your business to reach those goals. It has been shown that people who take the time to set goals for themselves, and memorialize them in writing, accomplish those goals at a tremendously higher rate, than those people who make a goal without writing it down, and making a plan of action.
Planning for success in 2019
I am so excited, I have picked up the tools I prefer to use to stay on track in the upcoming year already (I usually don’t get myself geared up until mid-January), AND I’ve started listing my goals, and breaking them down into do-able pieces, WITH deadlines through the year.
- Daytimer with 2 pages per week layout for all my daily scheduled activities; all my appointments, calls, and meetings listed by hour of day. There is also enough space to mark down weekly goals, as well as an address book to keep track of my clients names, numbers and addresses.
- Daily Journal Calendar, with a full page per day to jot down my to do list, in bullet point form, so I can see at a glance what I need to get accomplished that day, and tick off items as I finish them
- Monthly Doodle Calendar to schedule my social media posts, and stay consistent! (my biggest stumbling block of 2018), as well as the coloring aspect of the calendar, to keep my creative juices flowing.
- Last, but not least, a few notebooks that are small enough to carry with me at all times, to brainstorm ideas for my network marketing business, my blog, or any new courses or lead magnets I have, whenever I feel inspired.
I have spent much of 2018 researching courses to buy, which social media platforms I prefer to work on, figuring out how to apply what I learned, and what actually seems to work, in terms of networking, gaining leads, and earning affiliate commissions as I learn to apply to my Network Marketing Business.
My favorite affiliate platforms, that teach proven systems to gain new customers and business builders as well as earn commissions for sharing those step by step systems are:
Gloria Macdonald’s Dominate Linkedin program, and My Lead System Pro, which offers training on a variety of different platforms. Both of these programs offer terrific step by step training’s, wonderful customer service to help you through their courses, and most importantly – ACCOUNTABILITY, through weekly calls, and AFFIRMATIONS, through emails and shoutouts on group calls. If you want to stay on task throughout 2019 so you can meet your 3 , 6, and 12 month goals, the two most important factors after writing down your goals, and breaking them down into manageable daily, weekly, monthly tasks; are ACCOUNTABILITY and AFFIRMATIONS. Both of these systems/programs are well worth the cost, and pay for themselves in a matter of weeks!
For transparency sake: this post contains affiliate links, and I may earn a commission if you choose to purchase anything through the links.
