The sky suggest limitless of possibilities. We can soar. What can you accomplish if you try? What change can you commit to that will Make a Significance Difference for you?
Boomers: it’s time to “Make a Difference for Ourselves!”
Now I know what you thinking. Many believe that as boomers were / are selfish, self-indulgent and self-centered. But WE know that is not the whole story. WE just wanted to do things “My Way.”
While we have succeeded in many areas in our lives, we all have something/s on our plate unfinished, unresolved. So I propose tackling one of these issues NOW.
Imagine that in 90 days you can overcome the biggest challenge you’ve procrastinated about you for ages.
Here’s how to get started
Step 1 – Dig out your journal, dust it off and get going.
If you don’t have a journal, use a yellow tablet, copy paper or any paper scrap available. (Kidding – spring for a nice book, one you are happy to write in every day.) We will use the journal to record our 2016 BIG goal and track our progress while reaching it.
As you read the list, write down all of the statements in your journal which are true for you. Be honest. This info is for your eyes only. Don’t get overwhelmed if you are writing down a LOT of statements. We will tackle each challenges one at a time.
One or more items on the following list may be your issue OR you already know “What It Is” because, you’ve been thinking about it for years.
Here goes:
I am (_____) pounds overweight
Run a 5K, I can’t even run five blocks
I need more sleep
I take so many drugs
I am in a rut eating unhealthy foods
I just can’t remember things
I have many negative thoughts
I’m too tired
I can’t get off the couch
I am depressed
I feel lazy, unmotivated
I am uninspired
I am discouraged
I don’t have enough time
I’m a sandwich between my parents and my children
I’m too old to learn new tricks
I am sick of my job
I wish I had a job
I dream of owning my own business
Retire, retire with what money
I have too much month at the end of my money
My house is a mess
I have too much stuff
I can never find anything
I am a shopaholic
How did you do?
1-10 items – excellent considering we have lived 60+ years. That one issue every six years. I wonder which one was neglected before age 5!
10 – 15 items – oops – somewhere you lost your way
15 + items – you’ve got serious work to do. But don’t be discouraged, change is possible. I’m going to show you how.
Step 2 – Choose your big challenge.
Now, pick just ONE item from your journal to work on.
This summer 2016 – over the next 90 days, we are going all in to overcome this issue – no excuses – pick your BIGGEST CHALLENGE. The thing that’s been nagging you for the longest. The thing that you said to yourself for so long if only I ………….
