As we take our first steps in the new year, here are ten coaching suggestions to help you clarify what matters most and be your best in 2025.

Let's GO! 🚀

Are You Ready for Your Next Big Opportunity?

Opportunity sometimes appears in unlikely forms. Opportunity tends to knock when we least expect it. Be ready. Always ready! 🍀

Stop. Start. Continue. Accelerate!

It's wise at-times to pause and assess what's working and what needs to be different. Here's a short guide to help you consider things to start, stop, continue, or accelerate! Every leader I coach has a different timeline for navigating and decision-making. Be quick - (don’t hurry)! 🚀

Be an Optimistic Realist!

Optimism is essential to launch big projects. Realism, likewise, is required to plan and deliver quality work on time and budget. It’s easy to start a big project and much harder to finish. Be an optimistic realist. Big things tend to cost more and take longer to achieve than we think!

Mindset matters - Problems test us to engineer new solutions! | BCedX

It's easy to do well when things are going our way. It's harder to excel when we experience difficulties and setbacks. Mindset matters. Be thankful for problems that test our beliefs and invite us to engineer new solutions!

Risk & Reward - Make a Small Bet and GO!

Today as always, winners make the most of opportunities while managing associated risks. Although caution is understandable and sometimes prudent, the biggest risk at this time of great change is not taking one. What would you do if you knew you would win? Make a small bet on your self ... now, GO!

Set a Deadline to Achieve Headlines

A goal without a timeline is just an intention. Set a deadline to prioritize action and investment in things worth doing. Deadlines command attention. Deadlines drive decision-making and collaboration. Your score at the deadline will influence improvement or a pivot to something new altogether!

Datsuzoku - Try Something New or Different!

Datsuzoko – that’s a Japanese word that reminds me to take a break and try something different! Rain or shine, our daily habits and routines predict our daily experience and performance. If we expect something new or different, it’s wise to adjust or change our habits from time-to-time!

Process Drives Performance

Everyone makes great toast from time-to-time. If you are making lots of toast you will need a toast-making method to assure consistency that drives sales and growth. Process drives performance. Good habits and reliable processes help us do more together with less effort. Don’t burn your toast!

Fail Fast. Learn Quick!

To solve a complex problem or win a great victory, you may try many things that fall short. Fail fast. Learn quick. Keep moving. Dwelling on setbacks slows your progress. Hit or miss - take your next shot. Make it your best shot!
