Try Something New This Year!

It's a new year lets mix things up a bit ...

If you are like most people, setting goals doesn’t work very well.

Statistically, most people have forgotten their goals by late January.

You could try something different this year…

You could STOP SETTING GOALS.

Instead, you could decide to SOLVE A PROBLEM.

Most people don’t like to set goals – we say we do, but we don’t.

However we do like solving problems.

So this year, try picking a problem and decide on the best way to solve it.

If you are not making progress on solving the problem- try something else or get some help from another source (Book, Course, Consultant, etc.).

Try this in your personal life and professional life.

Managers can use this also.

Rather than having a meeting and setting goals with your team, try to ask your team to help solve the problem.

Let your team be part of the process.

This could be better than giving them your goals for the year.

Who knows … you may get 20 new ideas out of the process.
