Are We There Yet?!

Are we there yet.gif

This little girl is acting out my entire life at this moment in time. Why is it only March but it feels like we should be minutes away from 2020?! This year is moving on with a vengeance like Angela Bassett in Waiting To Exhale, and if we are not careful, all we will see to remind of us of where we have been and when we are, is the remnants of smoke.

When I started writing this post, I though it would be about the longing of wanting to get to the part in the journey where we enjoy the fruits; but as soon as I started to type, I knew this post was to be about our goals and the habits/lifestyle that would get us to the place of successfully attaining them.

So let’s bring it back a bit, the question then needs to be, “am I there yet?” It is vital that we take to time to be introspective and honest with where were are if we are to get to where we intend to go. Here we go: “Have I made an intentional effort to develop habits and thought patterns that will help me achieve the goals I have set this year? Have you?”

I set some goals for myself this year, with the intention of motivating myself to get to a place of excellence. As I evaluate my progress thus far, I am finding that I cannot go this journey on my own. I need like minded individuals around me who will help to keep me accountable not only to my goals but to the woman I am becoming. (After all, this is the place where those becoming be! LOL)

I want to share some of things that I have put in place and will be putting in place in order to make 2019 an amazing year:

  1. Find a system or a framework for helping you think through your year;

  2. Determine your focus for the year – Choose no more than 2 major things;

  3. Identify your Tribe or Collective, share your goals and dreams for this year with them;

  4. Intentionally set up times for face to face contact with the Tribe/Collective;

  5. Evaluate your progress often and be willing to adapt quickly; and

  6. Have fun!

Holla at your girl and let me know how 2019 has been so far, what measures you have put in place for yourself to make it a successful year and how I can pray for you! Maybe we can keep each other accountable! More importantly though, as you continue to conqueror and slay this year, know that the Dreama is in your section screaming:
