The Hardest Step of the Seminar Success Goal Achievement Blueprint:
The Hardest Step of the Seminar Success Goal Achievement Blueprint:
"...and the winner is..." (do we need a drum roll for dramatic effect?)
STEP NUMBER 5!
That's right, it's follow-through on your plan and strategy - that is the hardest step for people. There's 2 major reasons for this:
One is simple procrastination. It's getting going in the first place. Some people find ways to avoid getting started by allowing distractions to preoccupy their time... suddenly, all kinds of little things "just pop up" that require immediate attention.
Another way people procrastinate is "analysis paralysis" - they get too caught up reviewing their plan, rather than getting going with the plan. It's as if they want to wait for all the traffic signals on the road to be green before they'll get in the car and start driving. Closely related to this is the "my plan needs to be perfect before I start" group - they love to take no action with the excuse that the plan is flawed. This is just highly rationalized procrastination, and nothing more.
We'll talk about the other major reason tomorrow, but in the meantime, feel free to weigh-in right her on my blog about what you find to be the toughest or most intimidating part of the seminar success blueprint.
See you tomorrow,
David
