Hi my name is Laura and welcome to Start Small – Achieve Big!
It’s July 2010 and my dream of having this website is now real – soooo exciting!!!! Believe me it wasn’t a quick and easy job! It is almost a year later than I first hoped. My initial goal didn’t end up too realistic and then there were quite a few hurdles along the way. BUT…I stuck to my goal, kept positive and teamed up with my great friend Ryan and together we have created something we are really proud of.
Do you have dreams or ideas about what you want to do, have or become that you would like to see come to fruition? If you answered yes then you are in the right place!
The purpose of this website is to help you reach more of your goals, faster! You will have access to a tool that will help you to break down and document your goals and an option to share your goals with others. There is a lot of research out there saying that people that set goals and regularly review them are far more likely to succeed than those that don't. Also when people feel accountable they are more likely to follow through and put in that little bit of extra effort. We aim to help keep you on track by sending you a weekly update email while offering you lots of support and encouragement, because we all need this from time-to-time! Our site also offers you information and tools on how to reach your goals faster. Find Out More.
From what I have read and what I have worked out myself, to increase your chances of achieving a goal you need:
- it to be a SMART goal;
- to know why it is important to you and be committed;
- know what will help you and what could hold you back; and
- to share your goal to allow support and accountability.
SHARING GOALS = help / support + suggestions + accountability + potential opportunity to work towards common goals + help overcoming the FUD factor (fear, uncertainty and doubt). To share your goals with others and seek advice and help, join our Facebook Group!
Stay tuned to this Blog for regular tips for achieving your goals and to hear about how Ryan and I or other people have successfully started small and achieved big. We will also let you know if we hear of any great events or conferences that might help to inspire you to take that first step.
Remember to Start Small, Laura
