Less than 50 days left in 2006. To me I find that both scary and exciting! I find that the New Year is bitter sweet. I have lost some loved ones, I have had new loved ones enter my life and I have gained deeper knowledge. I am not a deep person, but I have compassion. I am not a book smart person, but I am pretty damn smart. I am not the best person - but I am a good person.
I entered into Active Rain as well as my own blog early this year. I did not know what I was doing, where I was going or why I was blogging. But, I knew it was something that I liked the first time I blogged. I knew that even when I had "writers block" (can I call it that?) that I still had something to say. I think what I have learned the most through this year and maybe more so from Active Rain is that there are millions of ideas out there and if you can listen you can learn.
I have also learned that admitting when you are wrong is a powerful tool. I am trying to do that more in real life. Its a hard concept for me - because I like to think I am always right. I am mostly always right.. OK OK - sometimes I am not right, but I know that I am going in the right direction.
Starting a business plan is a hard thing to do, I have to admit it. I mean in past years it was just a numbers thing for me. I have always said my goals, wrote down my goals and worked towards my goals, but to write a business plan is almost like writing a map. Holy cow - how do I get from point A to point B? (Let me just say that I am not good at maps and if I did not have a GPS in my SUV, then I would forever be driving in a circle). But I digress -
Ohh - Digress is a good word for this post -
So in following Jonathon Daltons Business plan - I ditto everything. I am just going to copy and paste it here and follow his footsteps. No really, I mean it. Ok Ok I kid.. I kid..
But in reality, Jonathon has a great business plan and for his two years (I can not believe that he has only been in real estate for only two years) he is going to go straight to the top. He recognized his strengths and his weakness. I did not see one excuse and I think that owning up to your mistakes is a big thing to do. That is something where people fail to recognize and in order to make a good plan you need to write out not only the things that you do want to achieve, but also to make notice of where you need to focus on.
So in the next 48 days - think, motivate and DO - Your 2007 will be a great year!!!
So - am I right???
