many of you have set up goals for 2006 ...

and some of you have achieved all of it, some of you have gotten somewhere with it.
you may feel dishearten by your lack of progress.

BUT

if you have not even attempted at these goals, you will probably not done anything about it.
think of them as steps that lead towards your dream goal.
you are making progress!
but maybe should attempt a little more in 2007.

the ways that will help you stick to your goals and the game plan are;
1. write them down! only 5% of the people write down their goals. it seems unreal if you only talk about it. writing them down is a sign of commitment. you are annoucing to your family and friends and even team mates your intention. they will remind you about your commitement and it will be an incentive for you to work at it.

2. have a plan.
all of us want to do many things or rather wish to do many things. they are dreams until we do something about it. until we act upon it, it is just wishful thinking.

3. get a training partner
it is hard to get out to train at the end of the day when you are tired, hard to get out of your warm bed early in the morning especially when the weather is wet and when your favourite program will be on in an hour. if your training partner is committed to the same goals as you, it would take a smaller ego to call it quits and go eat an early dinner.

bonus
a community who understand your goals and go on the same journey and dinner break and any other fun social stuff with you.
