Writing your goals and sharing increases the probability of success. I'm wanting to grow GDC by 12%. 1 client review per day, using Allbridge and MWS. 15 new clients, through golf class/lunch and client appreciation cooking class dinners. By year end, bring on a Series 7/63 paraplanner, 20 hrs. per week. Put business succession plan in place. Lower my golf handicap by 3 points.

Make more money, work less, golf and surf more. Oh yeah, and lose 10 pounds.

07 goals?

Might quit smoking

Maybe lose some weight

Thinking about starting to exercise

That should about cover it for 07. I'll put off possibly reading a book until 08.

Hmmmmm, something to consider...

Grow gross revenue by another 50% while increasing profit margins. Improve our revenue/headcount ratio.  (Fewer placements, bigger numbers). Increase placements in our sales management and private banking practices. Increase market share of our FA practice within key accounts. Hire more employees and develop the ones we have so that the owners can focus on high-value activities such as building customer relationships and developing our emerging practice areas. Take more days off.
Don't work as much during my days off.

Hey Jeff, 12 years in and I'm am (re) discovering that it is ALL activity based. For the last few years, I have been into too much philosophy of running the business.

Folks here can hold each other accountable.

How would quitting this board be a (desirable) goal?

Yes actually I would.....

It's easy. Every time you smoke, fully engage yourself in the act of smoking. Do not unconsciously smoke - don't multitask (even drive), carry on a conversation. Do not limit your smoking in any way, but pay 100% attention the act of smoking itself. Watch yourself smoke with your full consciousness. Don't think, "I need to quit, I should quit, I broke down and had another cigarette, etc." Instead, only think about smoking. If you find yourself using the nicotene rush to propel other thoughts, bring those thoughts around to the act of smoking itself. Just engage in the act of smoking fully consciously. You will smoke less and less, and finally you will stop. This has worked for thousands of people. It will happen.
