Don't Flake Out On Yourself
Description
There is a predictable cycle where firm and business owners set ambitious goals at the start of a new year, and then find it difficult to follow through. Velocity Work Podcast episode #136: Don't Flake Out On Yourself reminds firm owners the real impact of thinking big and the importance of showing up to fulfill that vision.
This week Melissa identifies common reasons why follow-through can feel so difficult. If you start with vague goals, no map to reach them, and no accountability on the way, falling into old routines and excuses is easy. This year, ask a better question: who benefits when the firm reaches its goals?
When you reach your personal and business goals, you improve your corner of the world and well beyond.
