Milestones and goals aren’t always the same thing. For example, with my post from yesterday, I reached the milestone of 600 posts to my RondaReady.com website. Wow! It’s pretty incredible to realize that’s how many times I’ve added some System information. Quite a milestone. But it was never a goal of mine.
Milestones and goals are different, but they’re both important markers.
And, if you’re a business owner or entrepreneur or wannabe, you gotta have markers. They help you understand and even share your story with your customers and clients.
In your day-to-day life, away from business, I’m sure you can remember a ton of milestones. Right? Certain birthdays. Weddings and anniversaries. How about graduations and promotions. And, of course, the sad things like friends moving away. And even funerals and memorials.
Those are all milestones to help mark the passage of time.
And you can look back, in your mind or photographs or journals, and see where you started and how far you’ve come. That’s probably why so many people like to look through old pictures. (Although those pictures with those trendy hairstyles are not my favorite. Yikes!)
But photographs and journals aren’t the only place to get a clear picture of where you started and how far you’ve come. If you’re a business owner, you can track your progress (or performance) with your System. And you can use the information to plan your next moves.
And those milestones and goals are what I call your…
Blueprint For Success.
Because, as I like to say, if you don’t know where you’re going, how will you know when you get there. So, I always recommend setting up your starting point in a way that gives you the best possible chance at success.
And that’s why I give away an 8 step booklet to help you do that. I call it “Envision Your Future: the first steps of your Blueprint for Success.” It’s an easy, 18 page read. But in those 18 pages you’ll discover how to focus on your goals so you can reach important milestones.
If you’re not quite ready to invest in a total system, at least get my free blueprint. Your link, for that, is below. And if you’ve been around for all or some of my 600 posts, (now 601) thank you so much.
Stay Ready,
Ronda
