Goals are not just for New Year, 7

1. A goal can be set anytime, not just new year.
2. A goal needs a walk, some writing and considerable reflection to make it real. 
3. A goal set over a glass of wine, at a party, in the crowd when heart, mind and soul are truly (rightly) elsewhere is unlikely to bind your will; that needs specific focus. 
4. Goals may be big. But they need to have time friendly (20 minutes) and brain friendly ('no problem-I can do that') first steps.
5. When setting the goal, agree the first three ever-so-easy steps.
6. Set a breakthrough one today.
7. Start it today.
