  Today Paul talks about how he plans ahead for his year and how it is key to his focus and success. He shares his format and tips so you can do the same and get your 2021 off to a great start!   KEY TAKEAWAYS It’s easy to get lost and lose focus when you do not have a clear direction or end goal. This is the failure point for many entrepreneurs and businesses. Paul tracks his goals each year. He has a document with 16 sections that he completes for the year ahead. He refers back to it each month to ensure he is on plan as he should be and is on track to where he wants to be. It gives him focus throughout the year. If you have more than 3-5 goals it can be very difficult to achieve. It then means you end up having more ‘unticked’ items that ‘ticked’ and can have a negative impact on how you feel about your progress. If you are strict about only doing things that fit within your values then it can be a key indicator in what you need to do to enable yourself to move forward. Do not let other people’s beliefs of you limit yourself in life. Make those big goals, dream those impossible dreams! Many of us overestimate what we can do in 12 months and underestimate what we can do in five years. Keep this is mind when making yearly plans.   BEST MOMENTS   “The reason that they fail is that they don’t know where they are going, they get lost”   “If you can make values one of your core drivers then it’s quite a powerful tool to have”   “I really do not give a flying hoot about what people care [think] about me anymore”   VALUABLE RESOURCES BulletProof Business Podcast   ABOUT THE HOST Paul Abercrombie Entrepreneur, Speaker, and Founder of Multiple Businesses.
