60 Days Left

Trick or Treat – only 60 days left to the end of the year.


It’s hard to believe there is less than 60 days left to the end of the year. Time does go fast.

If you’re like me, you base goals – personal and business, and business plan results on the end of the calendar year. If so, it’s time to kick the goals in high gear with a big push to end the year - and start planning for 2011.

It’s also time to get your team committed to the same.

I did this at October 1st – planned the last 90 days. I pulled out my goals and business plans – took out a calendar – reassessed some targets – and developed a 90 day plan with actionable targets. I have reviewed and updated the plan weekly since. You know what? I was able to get a few priority things back on track.

For me, I had accomplished some of the things I set out to do in 2010, but others had lost priority and slipped out of sight. This re-engagement at 90 days reprioritized everything, and created focus and urgency. My business picked up, and I feel better about myself.

If you haven’t re-assessed your 2010 goals and business plans, do it now – you have 60 days left. It’s late, but you can get a lot done in 60 days. It is amazing to how a daily focus with a short time frame helps get the important stuff done.
