Baby Step Your Way Towards Your New Year’s Goals…
This is the time of year when we are thinking about our goals and plans 
for the New Year. They may be for our business-growing your brokerage; adding to your team; getting certified in something… or personal- losing weight; eating healthier; learning a new language.
Everyone makes these goals or resolutions.
You have to know where you’re going to get where you want to be.
It’s so easy to lay out our goals on paper or digitally, but if that’s all you do, you’re not going to get very far.
We were having breakfast with a friend who’d survived a heart attack while diving in the islands. Upon his return, he faced several months of not even having the strength to walk to the mailbox. Because he was homebound, he also gained a lot of weight.
One day he took stock of his life and realized that this was not the way he wanted to live.
He set out on an action plan that began with that one small baby step.
He began his journey to that mailbox and it started with one baby step. Each day he took one step more until he could make the whole trip and back.
He said this:
Start with baby steps-you may not get where you’re going but you’ll get a lot further than you’d get if you kept waiting to take that giant leap.
Whatever it is you hope for, go on and begin with just one baby step today. You’ll still be further along than you were yesterday.
PS… my friend is over 70 and still dives every chance he gets.
