Anyway, as I was saying yesterday I do not set resolutions but set goals for the year. Also, I said that I would be sharing my goals for the 2011 fiscal year and I will later this week but today I want to share with you the process I go through in case you would like to set up goals instead of resolutions. Below you will see the process.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing I do when I set my goals for the year is, I break them up into specific categories. The following categories are the ones I use. Feel free to use all these for your goals or pick 4 or 5 to start with.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Business<\/li>\n<li>Financial<\/li>\n<li>Physical<\/li>\n<li>Mental<\/li>\n<li>Spiritual<\/li>\n<li>Relationships<\/li>\n<li>Family<\/li>\n<li>Lifestyle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now, I go through each catagory and come up with four goals for each one. From there, I then go through the list and pick my top ten goals for the year. Next to each goal I mark the corresponding symbol from each category. \u00a0Ex.) If I say work out 4x a week, I mark a (P) next to the goal. I do this for each of the ten I listed.<\/p>\n<p>Once I have my top ten and they are marked with the corresponding symbol, I then go back and look to see which areas I am focusing more on and make sure that sits well with want I really want to accomplish for the year. Sometime it will take me a few drafts to get my goals refined but it is well worth it in the end. If you are new to goal setting don&#8217;t get overwhelmed by it. These are your goals, so just start by setting some up and you can always go back later and change them, which I will be writing about later this year. \u00a0If you are stuck and want more info on how I do this send me an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.davemcgarry.com\/cms\/contact\">email<\/a> and I will help you out.<\/p>\n<p>Coming up part 2 of Dave McGarry&#8217;s 2011 Goals. I will be reveiling my goals for the year! See you then!<\/p>\n<p>Coach Dave<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, I did not realize that I would have had such a response from my post yesterday but I appreciate all the feedback.
