With 2017 around the corner. It is time to start setting goals to achieve in the new year.

With a new year, we tend to start over and hope to do things better than we did last year. We want to create new beginnings for better habits or goals. As the year begins we get a new chance to make things right.

At the end of 2015, one of my goals was to start my business and be independent. Today I am grateful that I have my own business, so my main focus in 2017 is going to be growth and make my business successful.

My 2017 plan is

My business will grow, and I will work with my passion and dreams:

1. Help parentpreneurs reach their full potential.
2.  More awareness about the importance of empowering children.
3.  Importance of believing in yourself to succeed.

I have a friend, who every year writes down the goals that she wants to achieve. At the end of the year, she goes through her list, to see how many goals she reached. There might be some goals that fell apart. But the goals she focused on she achieved.

Years ago when she first told me about it. I was fascinated I wanted to do the same! I believe that to achieve something you need to be focused. You need to know what you want and go for it when the opportunity presents itself. You don’t need to know how, you just need to know what the results are going to be.

So how do you focus on your goals and achieve them in 2017?

• Find out what you want to achieve.
•  Start by writing your goals down, as specifically as possible.
•  Commit to go for it! Find out why these goals are important to you.
•  Use visualization to see yourself with the end result.

There are a lot of tools to help you align with your goals and help you achieve them.

2017 is going to be big, and this time I’m going to be fully prepared.
