Goal Setting & Achievement Podcast: Business|Productivity

We all want more success and the fear of failure can often be the driving force of our actions.  We work long hours, sacrifice personal time, and even sleep.  We put our heart and soul into what we're trying to achieve, only to find that we're spinning our wheels.  We think we're getting things done, because at the end of the day all of our Action List items are crossed out; but did we really get closer to achieving our goals?  The fact is, most of us accomplish a whole list of things by the end of the day, but have little to show for it.  Your success depends on what you are doing and the way you are getting things done.  If you're not moving closer to your goal achievement, you are not getting things done the right way. The good news is - getting things done the right way requires only a simple shift in your actions.  There are only two ways of getting things done; one way leads to your success, while the other keeps you in the same position you're in right now.  There is no in between.  Getting things done right comes down to taking actions that support your forward progress and success.  If you feel like you've been spinning your wheels, you probably have been.  You might be getting things done, but your actions have been sabotaging your success.  You end up working twice as hard, only to stay in the same place. Getting things done the right way, can take you from spinning your wheels to; creating more time, expending less effort, reducing frustration, and moving you closer to your goals with every single action.  This is possible because success relies on one principle: success takes successful actions. Let’s explore eight ideas to help you get things done… the right way.  Want more proven business success tips and resources?

The most successful businesses globally are run by high-performing entrepreneurs with habits that ensure high performance and maximum productivity in their work lives. What propels their successes are the habits they have cultivated and disciplined themselves to stick to throughout their lives. Your habits have an undeniable connection to your success in business. These habits have a connection with how you think, how you feel, how you respond to positive and negative emotions and occurrences.  As a high-performing professional or business owner, you need to cultivate the right habits to lead you on the path to greater success. The habits you cultivate should also position you as a leader in your business while encouraging others, your employees, and maybe even your competitors, to emulate you. Though these habits are those of successful entrepreneurs, simply cultivating these habits and doing nothing to evolve and manage your business effectively won’t change your business. You have to put in the work required to ensure that you achieve your goals. Consistent application of these habits will help you transform your lifestyle and build a better business that sets you on the path to enjoying your ideal business and ideal life.  Applying these 6 habits will help you build an even better business. Pick one of these six habits to help you get started on building an even better business.

We have all heard about SMART goal setting. In days gone by, business leaders adopted a set of principles to sustain business growth and achieve goals. These principles were known as SMART goals – Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-based. While many corporate giants now believe these principles to be somewhat archaic and not relevant in today’s dynamic, less structured business world, SMART goals can be expanded and revised to suitably fit our current business philosophies. Let’s break this down and delve into each one now. S is for “Specific”Creating specific goals is no less relevant today than it was 20 or more years ago.But let’s ramp it up by adding Stimulating, Systematic, Synergy, and Self-talk to the list of “S” words. M is for “Measurement”In the SMART goal principle, M is for “measureable”, but it can also stand for motivation, memorable, and meaningful.A is for “Achievable” Sure, setting achievable goals is a key factor in ensuring the success of your goal strategy, but what about Action Plan, Articulate, and Acknowledge? R is for “Relevant”Sure, keeping your goals relevant is a high priority, but so is Re-invention and Resolve. T is for “Time-Based” Goals consist of two basic components – the end result and the time it will take you to achieve that end result. So, creating time-based goals is a crucial factor. But so are words like Tactical and Thought-provoking.Go to https://www.accountabilitycoach.com to check out for yourself how I, as your Accountability Coach™, can help you get and stay focused on you highest payoff activities that put you in the highest probability position to achieve your professional and personal goals, so you can enjoy the kind of business and life you truly want and deserve.  Get your daily Accountability Minute shot of a single, simple, doable idea, so you can start your day off on the "right foot".

Accountability is more than just a friend that calls you up occasionally to make sure you’re sticking to your weight loss goals. It’s also more than the occasional roundtable discussion with business colleagues checking in on how everyone in the group is doing in terms of hitting their quarterly financial goals. True, meaningful accountability serves to prop you up when you feel discouraged, and also propels you to heights you never thought possible.  While there are many different types of accountability, both business and personal, these 4 types of accountability are ones you need to place in your life immediately.Ultimately, accountability is never just a one-time thing that applies to just a single area of our life. To find success, you need to be open to being challenged in all areas of your life. We can’t usually see our own blind spots – it takes trusted people in our lives to point them out to us and to provide us the support we need to work through those weak points intentionally.Want more proven business success tips and resources?  Of course you do… Subscribe to my blog by going to www.acountabilitycoach.com/blog. Get your daily Accountability Minute shot of a single, simple, doable idea, so you can start your day off on the "right foot".
