2022 is here, and I don’t think I am alone when I say we hope it is different from 2020 and 2021. I am sure some of you had great things happen in those years, and I did too; however, I think we can all do with less COVID!

Shifting our focus to 2022; what are your 2022 New Year’s Resolutions? Not just your regular old run-of-the-mill New Year’s Resolutions, but your real goals and dreams for the New Year? More importantly, how do you plan to make them come true? Resolutions are great, but they are pipe dreams without planning, accountability, and action. For example, most of us make a New Year’s Resolution to lose weight or get healthier, and for about six weeks or so, we go to the gym, eat nutritious food, and have the best intentions. However, suddenly, we miss a day at the gym, or we order dessert and fall completely back into old habits. You can stop this trend by making plans, developing a strategy, and holding yourself accountable.

To assist you in getting to where you want to be in 2022, I created The RAND Exercisetm. Think of this as your GPS, your Goal Planning Strategy Roadmap, which will show you how to reach your goals.

Completing this exercise will assist you in developing your roadmap.

Reality

  • What is my current reality?

  • What do I want to change in my current reality?


Action

  • What are two or three steps I can take to make this change?


Needs

  • Do I have what I need to act? For example, do I need more education, skills, certifications, or more money?

  • Whom might I need help from to reach my goals or hold myself accountable?


Desires

  • What is my outcome or goal?

  • How will I know when I have reached success?

Answering these questions will set you up for success in 2022.

Happy New Year! I applaud you for setting goals for 2022, and I hope it is your best year ever.
