Heather reminds him that people who want to reach their goals must put in the work and write out a plan. Hear her four steps for achieving your goals in 2022.  

Key Takeaways: 

  • It’s a lot easier to make excuses than to put in the work necessary

  • Break large goals into smaller ones

Heather R Younger’s Bio

Four Simple Steps

  1. Plot Out Baby Steps You Can Take Everyday
  2. Do a Daily Examination
  3. Give Yourself Time and Recalibrate 
  4. Commit to Having an Accountability Partner or Coach

We don’t have to get to our goals by ourselves. Check with HR to see if there are funds for a coach, or invest in yourself and hire that coach that can take you to the next level. Do all this with grace and don’t forget to take care of yourself. Practice self-care and give yourself time to achieve these goals.
