This is from Success Magazine, March 2015 (which again I highly recommend you subscribe to):
“Ask yourself the following questions every day to stay on track toward goals and focus on the things in your life that are within your control.
Did I do my best to:
Set clear goals?
Make progress toward goal achievement?
Be happy?
Find meaning?
Build positive relationships?
Be fully engaged?
This self-coaching technique (I guess that means you don’t need to hire me! Dang!) has proved to be highly effective, according to 79 unpublished (as of press time) studies of more than 2,500 people. The research found that for those who repeated the six-question process daily for two weeks, 37% responded that they were improving on all six points; 65% responded that they were improving on at least four of six; and 88% responded that they were improving on at least one.”
I don’t know about you, but I found that pretty impressive. So to lead by example, starting today I’m going to ask myself these six questions every day and see what happens. I’ll keep you posted. Anybody want to join me?
