Where do you want to be at the end of the month? It will be here before you know it. And if you have any friends who have made similar goals, how are you going to feel watching them as they move forward and you’re still thinking it through or trying to find the motivation or being too busy to get around to doing whatever it is you want to do?

Don’t waste time just get to work. It’s not about whether you feel like working out today, it’s about your health and how you want to look and feel when Valentine’s Day rolls around. It’s not about whether you feel like making those cold calls today, it’s about where those cold calls will get you three months from now.

I have friends who have a similar goal for the year as mine — to move. (Yes. You’re right. That is a pretty big goal.) They’re already taking steps to do just that. I could take steps to move in that direction as well. Or I could do the same things I did last year and then wonder what happened after I throw them a going-away party and watch them drive off into the sunset.

Guess which one I’m leaning towards.
