Don’t Forget the Second Step!

Have you identified a New Year’s resolution?

Don’t forget the second step: Bring in the reinforcements! Enlist someone or something to help you achieve your goal.

  • Pledging to lose weight? Find a workout buddy.
  • Determined to declutter? Hire a professional organizer.
  • Hoping to boost your career? Sign up for a Dardis program.

Taking that second step will ensure your success, putting you on the path of progress. It’s a sign of intelligence—self-awareness along with humility—to recognize the need for help. Enlist the right person at the right time!

That’s what Josie did when she qualified for nationals in a prestigious Future Farmers of America competition: She called Dardis! And after receiving our highly customized coaching, the University of Iowa freshman achieved her goal of winning first place.

You can do the same. Check out a library book. Phone a friend. Consult a dietician. Partner with a  neighbor. Sign up for a class. Put the wheels in motion.

Only nine percent of Americans complete their New Year’s resolutions, research shows. Place yourself in that elite group this year by setting yourself up for success!


Recommended Reading

This book inspired one of the most popular TED talks of all time. It flips the notion that success leads to happiness, explaining that, rather, happiness leads to success.

In a time of increasing stress and negativity, this book is so relevant. I love the author’s thinking on The Ripple Effect—how to spread positive change within our teams and companies. And his explanation of the Tetris Effect—how to retrain our brains to spot patterns of possibility and seize opportunities around us—couldn’t be more timely as we welcome a new year.
