No Goals for 2017. Am I Crazy?

by | Oct 24, 2023 | Weekly Blog

Here I am in Sydney in December 2016. Regular readers will know that I am a great believer in goals and have talked about them many times previously in my articles, books, and videos.

I do not have any goals planned for 2017 and you might expect me to be worried. Well perhaps I should be, but the truth is that I am not. The reason is that I hit all my targets in 2016 and have plenty of projects to keep me busy in 2017. These 2016 goals included writing and publishing two books, co-presenting 13 radio shows, multiple other radio and podcast interviews, helping my VIP clients post great results, and making numerous live presentations at prestigious venues. These were all great fun and I learnt so much from talking with so many wonderful people.

I will continue with all these processes during 2017 and trust my mantra that the results will then take care of themselves.

I plan to be the leaf that floats down the river ending up wherever the currents take it. I am looking forward to this journey and will not to swim against this current because there are so many things in life that we cannot control. My mind will hopefully be calm and alert so that I can spot the unexpected opportunities that often occur when we least expect it.

Looking back over the last few years it was unplanned events like this that turned out to be my greatest opportunities. And so it is for many people, if they are sufficiently mindful to recognise an opportunity when it manifests.

I do not know whether this experiment will be a success or not. I will keep you updated and time will tell.

In the meantime I wish you seasons greetings and hope that most if not all of your dreams come true in 2017. Please let me know about your successes too!

One goal you might consider is attending The Best You Expo at the Excel Centre in London. After the stellar success of the first The Best You EXPO in 2016, this is your chance to be part of an even bigger and better EXPO for 2017. I will be speaking there, and have a stand too, and would love to meet you.

With more stands, more space, more speakers and more guests at The Best You EXPO 2017, it’s hard to think of a reason not to come! Follow this link for more details
