Create plans of action. Dreams are your thoughts, priorities are your world, goals are your destinations and the plan of action is the detailed series of tasks or the navigation system and roadmap that gets you to your destinations.
Start with your top priority goals and make a detailed plan of action for each. Example: Your top priority health goal may be to lose 30 pounds by March 31st. Break this goal into more measurable and manageable stair-step goals – I will lose 10 lbs per month Jan, Feb and March - totalling 30 pounds by March 31st.
Plan of Action:
- Join the gym and workout a minimum of one hour per day after work – exercise to include cardio (bike, treadmill and aerobics), nautilus and free weights.
- Stop eating fast food immediately and permanently.
- Take a 30 minute walk on my lunch break every weekday.
- Take a hot yoga class in the morning before work twice a week on Tues and Thurs.
- Visit the sauna for 20 minutes on days that I don’t do yoga - Mon, Wed, Fri.
- Shop healthy – buy fresh organic fruits and veggies.
- Eat 6 to 8 healthy meals a day and consume portion sizes smaller than my fist.
- Limit couch time and TV watching to only one hour per night.
Each of these tasks or mini-resolutions are part of a detailed plan of action that will lead you to accomplishing your bigger goal. Remember, the most important part of a plan of action is the ACTION!
