FOCUS ON THREE
When I first meet with a client to begin our coaching, I always
ask them for the three main areas they would like to focus on
during the first three months of our partnership. You can do
the same thing with your most important goals. For each focus
area write a simple heading, and underneath, a description of
how to achieve it. Here is a sample of how this might look:
1. Be Financially Responsible
Have a system to track my spending and my income. Reconcile
my bank accounts each month. Create and follow a spending plan.
2. Improve My Fitness
Design and follow a workout program that will help me lower
my body fat and improve my stamina. Eat nutritious, healthy
meals on a regular schedule.
3. Have a More Romantic Relationship with My Husband
Plan a "date night" each week. Surprise him with loving things
to let him know how much I care. Acknowledge him for all that
he does and all that he is.
This simple, yet important, exercise can help you take action
and stay focused on what is most important to you. Keep your
list to no more than three major outcomes or goals. Trying to
remember more than three can put the mind into overload. This
is a proven way to help you stay clear on what you are currently
working towards.
ACTION IDEA:
Write out your three primary focus areas on several small pieces
of paper. Post these notes in several areas where you will see
them throughout the day. Then notice the difference in your
focus and effectiveness. To get the most out of this strategy,
ask a friend or a coach to support you by holding you accountable
to your plan.
