Okay! We’ve hit February—the year is well and truly off and running. The kids are back at school and hopefully some kind of routine has returned. Now it’s time to dive into your business goals for the year.

I’m guessing you’ve got an action list of things you want to achieve, but maybe you haven’t yet mapped out which ones to tackle first—or how you’ll make them happen. Let’s change that with your 2021 Action Plan.

5 Steps to Making Your 2021 Action Plan

1. Choose one item from your Action List and write it in the center of a blank page.
2. Draw a big circle around it and brainstorm everything you’d need to do—or that would need to happen—to accomplish that goal. Include practical steps and personal conversations, like “hire an admin assistant” or “talk to my partner about time commitments.”
3. Number those brainstormed tasks in order of priority. What needs to happen first? What’s the easiest to tick off?
4. Transfer your numbered list onto a new page in sequential order—1, 2, 3, etc.
5. Take the top 5 tasks, estimate how long each will take, and assign due dates. Then plug them into your calendar with reminders.

Repeat this process for any other major goals that need an action plan.

Remember: We’re aiming for progress, not perfection.

If you wait until everything is “perfect”—your house, your schedule, your business—you’ll never get started.

Let’s take action. Let’s build momentum. Let’s get you moving toward a life and business you love.

If you want support, guidance, and accountability to help you follow through, I’ve got just the thing.
