How To Get Back On Track And Stay Motivated?

Taking time off recently ro relax, enjoying the summer sun during my work travels, I sat by the pool at this beautiful beachside hotel I was staying at to enjoy a good book. 

Seated in my comfy lounge chair I took a moment to reflect on all that has happened in my life this past year. Thinking about all the changes, progress, accomplishments that accrued for me this year thus far. 

Being what my good friends call a ‘powerhouse’ has its pluses and minuses. Pluses have been feeling like a badass as I run two companies, while coming up with considerations & team members to help begin a third enterprise. Minuses being so busy I wonder what is this for this first place. 

As I sat there and reflected on all the pluses and minuses of being the ‘powerhouse’ doing the work I love, this moment allowed me to check-in. To see if I was staying focused and on track of the goals I had decided to accomplish this year. It was during this moment I realized I was veering off course to where I had originally planned for this year. Luckily, however, I caught it early enough to fix things to get back on course. 

Being a seasoned business owner, it still is easy to go off course. You have many things to manage, decisions to make, and issues to resolve. Oftentimes what I see in many of my clients is that they don’t give themselves any moment to check-in and sadly end up finding themselves year end in a great deal of hot water. 

To ensure you stay confident in staying focused on your business woman goals, take this time mid year to do a mid-year check-in. 

A. Reflect on the pluses and minuses of this year. 

• Pluses = what went well & what can you learn from this? 
• Minuses = what didn’t go so well & what can you learn from this?

B. Are you still on track of your yearly goal(s)?

• If yes, keep going!
• If no, what new action could you take today to get you back on track? 

Taking time to reflect on your successes, achievements, things you can learn from that went well or didn’t. As well confirming you are still on target to achieve your goals and if not, what you can do to get on track. Will ensure you confidently achieve the success you desire as a business woman.
