Motivational Monday #226: Goals & Standards...

Image
Goals:  The result or achievement toward which effort is directed; aimed towards.  Standards:  The minimum level accepted to a habit or end result.    We get what we accept/tolerate; our standards. Standards are what we will allow for ourselves daily.  How we allow other to treat us, what we eat, where we invest our time, etc..   We can have our goals, they can be lofty, but if we don't have standards in our daily life/activities then those goals will always be out of reach.  Today I have one question, though it is not simple: What is your standard for yourself? This  questions has a bit of depth to it, but when we find the depth in in we will be better prepared to go out and achieve our goals, personally & professionally when we align our standards daily so we have the potential for achievement. This could small tweaks  or drastic changes. Its easy to make goals, it's much harder to do the standards daily in order to achieve them.

Motivational Monday #225: Did you plan for this

Image
  This being today...This being this week. Today we start our journey through our work week. I have found that it is of paramount importance to take 5-15 minutes on Sunday afternoon or evening elevate my week exponentially. I get to feel like I am approaching the week and the week isn't approaching me.  A slight shift with a substantial impact.  Weather you are using a paper planner or your Outlook to schedule your days the outcome is the same. Taking the time to review and prep minimizes the 'surprises' that can happen; that can shift you off course. You are able to print, get or find what is needed before it is needed so then you can focus on who you are with, where you are at and what you are sharing.  If you are currently doing this weekly, AWESOME!!! If you are not, I want to challenge you to commit to doing it for the next 4 weeks and see if you notice a difference (you will) and it will be for the better for you, your family & those you work with. Leveling up isn
