2,500,000,000 Heartbeats in a Lifetime!

Did you know that there are 2,500,000,000 heartbeats in a lifetime!

Are you making them count?

Is your 2014 already looking a lot like 2013?  We’re only a few days into 2014 and have you noticed that most of your New Year’s resolutions are already abandoned?

OK! There’s no rule that if you’ve messed up you have to wait until next year to start fresh! Let’s just consider that’s the “past” and start again from today!

One mark of high achievers is goal-setting.  All of the successful people I know set goals and shoot for them…and they eventually hit their target! You might already be working on your list of goals – increasing your income, launching a new project or starting a new business. That’s good!  Go for it!  But remember not to neglect the areas you’ll regret the most if you fail to give them attention. You’ve only got 2,500,000,000 heartbeats!

You’ve all heard the story of the person on their deathbed and when asked what they regret the most they say it’s not having spent more time away from work.  Sometimes the distinction between work time and personal time gets fuzzy!

You might be working on a special project while you put off your much-needed vacation.  You might skip the gym or get shorter sleep to stay on top of e-mail and calls. You might be working at night while your family is waiting to spend some time with you… You could be setting yourself up for some big regrets!  We’ve all been there…so let’s take some time in our goals to change this pattern!

What if 2014 could be your best year ever…and your most balanced year?

You can achieve success AND still have quality time and experiences with your family, social life and take care of your health! You can make 2014 your best year ever – not just for your career, but also your everyday life!

Take a minute and look over your 2014 goal list.  Make sure it encompasses all aspects of what’s important to you.

You want to make every 2,500,000,000 heartbeat count!

Don’t waste the best moments of your life ignoring the best things in your life!

Live with intentional HorsePower and you can achieve success in both your personal and professional lives!

HorsePower will help you stay on course toward achieving your goals and realizing success!

Leadership and the Super Bowl – After the Game! A “Half-Time” Evaluation and Exercise for your Business!

Ok – the game is over, the commercials were great, and I ate way too many chips!

“When you want to win a game, you have to teach.  When you lose a game, you have to learn.” Tom Landry

Here are some of my observations about football, leadership, and what leaders must do in making the adjustments for the future!  Let me know your thoughts!

·       At half time, whether the teams are winning or behind, they talk about what is working and what’s not.

·       They talk about what’s hurting them and holding them back.

·       They talk about what needs to change quickly and what they need to do differently. 

·       They’ve learned from the 1^st half…and their making the adjustments fast.  They're staying “frosty”!

Ok…let’s say its half time in your business!  Take this quick “Half-Time” Evaluation and Exercise to determine your next game of play!

·       In which areas are you ahead in expectations? In which areas are you behind?

·       What’s working (scoring points!)?  What’s not (the competition’s ahead)?

·       What are you learning?

·       What do you need to change quickly?

·       What adjustments do you need to make?

·       What’s the plan of action, timeline, resources and plan for winning in 2014?

Remember teach, connect, collaborate and inspire your players to aspire to success…you’re the champions!

Goals and Inspiration for 2014… with HorsePower!

 

Goals and Inspiration for 2014… with HorsePower!

Happy New Year!  The last few weeks I have been with clients welcoming the New Year, setting goals and establishing new expectations for a successful 2014! I am so excited and passionate about what 2014 will bring!

Are you excited about your plans for 2014?  Whether you want to grow your business, improve your health or you have any other long-term goals, keep these HorsePower improvement insights in mind:

Be honest. Understand where you improved and where you dropped the ball. Today, you’re a lot wiser than you were yesterday! Identify and forgive past mistakes, hard times, struggles and now focus on improving and succeeding!

Be ready to change!  You will never change your life until you change something that you do daily.  Improvement is based on the decisions we make and the disciplines we practice!

Appreciate how far you’ve come!  Ask me about the “Note to Self” concept to really appreciate what you’ve done and accomplished.  Give yourself some credit!

You can’t manage without measuring.  Keep your goals specific, measurable, actionable, realistic and time-bound.

Set credible expectations for your improvement! Be realistic and remember that there is no greater recipe for failure than setting a “goal” that’s more than a “pipe dream”!

Be ready to change and go outside the “comfort zone”! Continual change is essential for continual improvement! Continually stretch and grow!  I have a sign in my office – “Betti…get out of your comfort zone 3X/day…DO IT NOW!”

Motivation gets you started.  Habits keep you going! Focus on establishing habits so you’ll keep the momentum up when the motivation starts to fade.

Focus!  Concentrate on a max of 3 areas in which you desire to grow and succeed in the coming year.  Don’t take on too many things.  If you focus and throw your energies into those areas – they’ll happen!

      Spend 80% of your time working on your strengths! This refers to your skill set…not your character.  Focus on developing and growing in your areas of strength. Growth in a strength area has the potential to make you absolutely exceptional!

Remember success develops daily, not in a day!  Ask yourself:  “Is what I am doing today getting me closer to my goal tomorrow?

HorsePower will help you stay on course toward achieving your goals and realizing success!

Ride every stride…with HorsePower!
