Getting Stuff Done

This was a good week when it comes to goals. I was pleased to accomplish several of my strategic goals this week. Of course, it's a great feeling to accomplish goals - however, I'd say it's more important to understand what allowed me to accomplish so much.

So what happened that allowed me to get so much done? First, I was focused. I knew exactly what I needed to accomplish. I allowed myself to be specific. When I'm specific, I know what the end result looks like.

Second - I faced and overcame obstacles. A big change that happened over the last few weeks was a change in thinking about the obstacle I faced. I was able to overcome my own challenge because my belief about the old way of doing things was no longer acceptable. When this thought changed, so did my behavior. I did the thing I had been dreading previously and I did it without effort.

So what do you need to do to get stuff done this week? What's the biggest goal that have for the week? What obstacles are you facing? Let me know if you need some help.
