Happy ANEW Year 2017!

I spent the last two days planning my goals for the year, and writing in my planner.  Yes, I have a paper planner, and it sits beside my laptop while I work at the online part of my business.  It reminds me what I sat down to do, and helps to keep me on task.  It would be so easy to go to Facebook right now, and check messages, scroll through the news feed, comment and react until I realize my coffee cup is empty and I have created and produced NOTHING!

My planner is sitting next to me with a sticky note that reminds me I am supposed to write a blog post and reach out to my team today to ask what I can do to assist them in reaching their goals for this year.

The first thing I noticed when I went to my blog, is that I haven't posted in months and only posted three times last year! As discouraging as this was, I needed to review some old posts, tweak my blog template a little, and basically procrastinate before I started writing anything.

Back to goal planning:   After years working in the mental health field, this is something that is almost second nature to me.  The planning part is easy, the follow-through is the challenge.

Whether you call them goals, objectives, targets, the key is to look ahead at where you want to be years from now, then work backwards until you figure out what you need to do every year, month, week and day to get there.

My long term goal is to build my Avon business into a source of income for retirement so my husband and I can enjoy travel, home improvements, and time with family and friends.  While this is a big goal, I sit here today realizing that it is within reach.  I recently reached Ambassador level with Avon, which means I now earn small bonuses on the sales of my team, and I receive leads from Avon to help me build my team.

This privilege comes with the responsibility of mentoring my team members.  I sometimes forget what I needed as a new representative, so my challenge now is figuring out what type of support my team needs from me.

As I go forward in the "ANEW Year", I will be working on training components for new as well as seasoned Avon representatives.

And now that I have made this public, I will be held accountable for this part of my goal plan.
