THE DEATH BLOW
TO YOUR BUSINESS WILL BE EXITING WITHOUT A PLAN
Start by asking yourself questions such as : Does this goal still rise to the level of importance to be an annual priority ? What has to change or be done differently for me to reach this goal ? Am I still the right person to own this ? Are we tracking the right things and completing the right actions ? Should the goal be adjusted ?
For example , let ’ s say you ’ ve set a goal to reach $ 1 million in sales by the end of 2023 , but by June , you ’ re not even close to your halfway goal . Instead of allowing this one , large , long-term goal to loom above you , you need to look at how you can break that goal down into several shorter-term goals and what actions you can implement to achieve these milestones . So now , instead of one overwhelming target of hitting $ 1 million in sales , you can see that it breaks down into ( for example ) three outbound calls to new prospects per day , securing one new client a month , and hitting quarterly sales goals of $ 250,000 .
If you come to the conclusion that you do need to pivot your priority , that ’ s fine . Discuss it with your team and decide , and then get back on track to achieving the newly set goal .

However , the accomplishment you and your team will feel when you get it across the finish line is unmatched and can boost motivation for future goals and targets .
Ultimately , this is where strategy meets execution and all your hard work comes to fruition . And when this happens , don ’ t forget to take some time to celebrate the win with your team !
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Goal setting is not just important ; it ’ s the number one thing that stands between you and the success you seek . When you ’ re able to systematize your priorities by creating a goal that ’ s specific , measurable , attainable , relevant , and time bound , you can more easily track and achieve these goals throughout the week , month , quarter , or year .
If your targets get off base — which should become noticeable if you ’ re keeping progress visible — no need to panic . Take a moment to re-evaluate for the information you have now , pivot to incorporate what you know today , and get right back on track .
As we head into Q3 , utilize these methods to help properly position your company to achieve success and reach your annual 2023 goals !
