Plan To Prosper

For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. ~Jeremiah 29:11

Do you get excited when you think about all of the wonderful things God has in store for your future?

I know I certainly do.  In fact, at this time in my life I am extra excited.

You see, in 35 days I’ll be celebrating my 35th birthday. (wo-hoo :))

I’m doing my little happy dance here because as great as my 34th year has been, I know God has even greater things to come!

So, over the next 35 days I’m preparing myself for the increased prosperity that’s coming my way. I’ll write down the visions God has given me.  I’ll examine the resources I’l need.  I’ll look at what’s worked well in the past and what I need to improve on.  This time is very important for me and I don’t take it for granted.

Why? Because over the past 34 years (with mush trial and error) I’ve learned that prosperous living  isn’t something that just happens. There’s some work you have to do to get ready for it.

PROSPER POINT

Take a look at Jeremiah 29:11 – God plans for us to prosper. This scripture tells me that prospering in life is not accidental or haphazard.  It doesn’t just happen.  Prosperous living  requires more than just wishing or intentions.  It requires preparation and planning.

Oftentimes we get so caught up in the end result that we rush right in and fail to make proper preparation to ensure our success.  I’m sure you’ve heard the saying – “if you fail to plan, plan to fail.”

Today, I’m challenging you to have a purposeful approach to your prosperity. Don’t just wish for it – plan for it!

Giving up on resolutions?

Hey there!

Do you know what some of my friends and colleagues have said when I asked them about their New Year’s Resolutions?

“Resolutions don’t work.”

“Why should I set New Year’s Resolutions if I’m going to end up breaking them anyway?”

“My resolution this year is no more resolutions.”

Pretty pessimistic, huh?

And, from the looks of the emails that have been flooding my inbox from gurus and personal development experts, the popular advice this year is to ditch the resolutions.

I don’t agree.

Success at any level must first begin with a resolution (or if you’re not comfortable with that word – a decision). You won’t get any of the things you truly desire in life without one. Goals are useful, but even the SMARTest goal will fail if you try to accomplish it before making a firm commitment.

That’s why at the beginning of each year I make 7 key resolutions – one for each critical area of my well-being.
• Spiritual
• Personal Growth
• Family
• Business
• Financial
• Health
• Community Service

It helps me to set a course for a prosperous year.

If you want to see massive growth in your life this year, I encourage you to take the time to do the same.

What will you resolve to do this year?

The High Cost Of Not Finishing What You Start

An unfinished goal is expensive. It drains your time, energy, and money.

I imagine that you, like other entrepreneurs and small business owners, are paying this exorbitant cost not just for one unfinished goal but a multitude of them.

We are so creative and have so many amazing ideas that it’s natural to want to do them all at once. Even those of us who are experienced at getting results in our business get caught up from time to time. 

Just yesterday, I sent my VA the files for a new special training program. This is very exciting for me because it’s allowing me to share the key principles of prospering in business and life with entrepreneurs who are ready to make more money, serve more people, and have lots more freedom in their business.

Yet, as much as I am celebrating this moment of accomplishment, I am also kicking myself because had I focused on this one project instead of the 10 other projects I’ve worked on over the past few months, this offer would have been up and ready to go on my site at the beginning of the summer.

So, by multi-tasking—trying to accomplish 10 goals at one time, I missed out on four months of serving the people who need this information the most. During this time, I also missed the opportunities to gain valuable exposure, and possibly generate new revenue, for my business

That’s a HUGE cost!

It’s not a cost I pay often, but it sure stings when I do.

How about you? What are your unfinished goals costing you? Is it a price you want to keep  paying?
