I realize I may be a bit out of season, but I think today’s message makes a lot of sense. Give me a minute.
There are 138 days left until Christmas at the time of this writing. I know this to be true, and most of you did not have a clue. I know it’s a fact as of today’s writing, there are 138 days left.
How do I know? Because Christmas is a very special and important occasion and my wife’s yearly event schedule. She has a countdown calendar hanging on our kitchen wall. Every morning she makes an adjustment and we know exactly how many days remain until Christmas.
What gets measured gets done.
Once you determine what is important to you, I recommend you begin “measuring” in some form.
- You want to lose weight? Start measuring your calories or your time on the treadmill.
- You want more sales? Start measuring the number of contacts you are remaking on a daily basis.
- You want to become more intelligent in a particular field of interest? Measure the time you spend reading about the subject matter.
As we all know two well, time has a habit of passion as by.
Let’s agree to the following:
For the next 90 days, decide what is meaningful in your life and begin to measure your progress. I promise that if you try this simple, effective maneuver – in three short months you will be miles ahead of where you are today.
What gets measured gets done.
Begin measuring your progress and you will be celebrating your achievements in very short order.
