Message from our Board Chair

Hello friends! Hope this finds you well.

It's Year End, 4^th quarter, and ALL of the things need to get done. There’s a lot to accomplish between now and December 31^st. I recently read a great article in SUCCESS magazine about developing two skills when goal-setting: Clarity and Confidence. Honing these skills will help ensure your success completing tasks and reaching your goals.

Webster defines clarity as “the quality or state of being clear: lucidity”. Keeping focused on a clear goal or objective isn’t something we are born knowing but a skill we need to practice and develop. It’s important to clarify what you want and why you want it, giving it purpose and value. Focus on the outcome, your “why”. And remember, be SMART. Keep your goals Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. Try not to start with “shooting for the moon” but set smaller, attainable goals to keep you moving towards the ultimate goal, the “moon”, and why it’s important to get there.

Imagine how you’ll feel setting and accomplishing smaller goals on the path to your ultimate goal! Confident and motivated to keep going, better than before. I know I will.

Peer Group is just around the corner and registration is open! If you have some success stories or a proven strategy for staying focused and setting and attaining goals with clarity and confidence, I’d love to hear them when we get together in February!

Happy Halloween!
