Day One
How did it go? Did you stick to your plan? Waver at all? Did you stay resolute? Did you shift 1% to the better?
Keep making daily progress. In 30 days you’ll be proud of what you’ve achieved and you’ll be unrecognisable.
Ready, Aim…
Now you have your goals drafted out with a high level plan. Brilliant! Celebrate that achievement!
Now start working those plans. Move things forward by one action every day. Whether it is a phone call, 20 minutes of research or buying a piece of equipment, get it done this morning.
Get some momentum going.
Good luck. Take action. Follow the plans. Win!
2026 Goals (Part 2)
Now that you have a list of written ideas, goals, activities, targets, desires and possibilities, we’re going to organise them, move forward toward achieving them and assess our progress, celebrating every little, and large, win along the way!
Step 4 from my book is Plan. Make a brief written plan to achieve the key goals you’re going to focus on. Get timings roughly predicted. Note major milestones you’ll need to reach.
Once you have a basic plan, you move on to Step 5 which is Action. You need to get momentum behind your goals so you’ll need to take action. You’ll need to make phone calls, send text messages, do research, apply, read contracts, study, sign agreements etc.
As you are taking action, you’ll need to review your plan and assess where you are compared to where you should be. Step 6 is Review. See what is going well and what isn’t. Understand what you excel at and what you have dropped. Track your timings and progress to see if you’re on track. If you’re not on track, how can you get back on track?
Finally, Step 7 is Celebrate. It is often a long and challenging road to reach and achieve your goals. To keep up your momentum, resilience and energy/stamina, you will need to celebrate each effort and all the milestone success along the way.
You must do all 7 steps from my book Achieve Anything. If you don’t have success, when you want it, it will be because you’re not doing one of the steps or not doing it fully.
Good luck! 2026 awaits!

2026 Goals
I hope you’ve started thinking about them. What will you need to overcome to achieve them? (Fears? Limiting beliefs? Money? Time?). Just start writing the ideas down. Everything that comes into your mind, write those thoughts down.
Those are the first three steps from my book Achieve Anything: Think. Overcome. Write. Write in a diary or a notebook or in your phone’s Note section. Get as many ideas down as possible today and tomorrow.
The ideas will begin to flow as you start writing them down. Travel, health, fitness, income, wealth, relationships, fun, adventure, clothes, date nights, and charity, are just some of the categories you can focus on for ideas for the year ahead.
Get going now! While the iron is hot and the intent is high! Get those great and exciting ideas written down right now!
Sleep Well
And if you don’t, can’t, or won’t, read some things on sleep. Then you can train your brain to get the best sleep every night.
Stay In The Game
Most people quit at some point. You just need to stay in the game a little longer and you can win a lot.
Don’t give up. Stay disciplined. Train daily. Positive mindset. Step by step. Forward movement.
You will get there.
10 Years
What seems impossible in one year could be totally possible in 10 years. Being at the top of your sport, industry, or craft in just one year is highly unlikely. However, if you put 10 grinding and effective years of work in, to training and honing your skills, you certainly could be at the top.
You can build a billion dollar business in 10 years. Go from being 10 years old and dreaming of playing in the NHL, NBA, MLB, or Premier League and in 10 years, at the age of 20, be playing for your favourite team! The Beatles were only together for 10 years and look how well they did!
What if you dedicated the next 10 years to personal growth, systems and structures? What could you accomplish, achieve, create?
10 years…. You could achieve anything.
Best Time?
Was 1920-2000 the best 80 years in history to be alive? One may be able to make an argument for it.
The greatest wealth increase per capita seemed to happen in this period. There were huge social changes and great technological changes too. Voting rights and laws were improved. The tv, radio, airplane, medicine, peace, and the internet all became ubiquitous in this time. So did indoor plumbing and electricity!
There was no 24/7 information access. There was no AI. Jobs and houses were easier to come by in that era.
Perhaps this century is an even better time?! It depends how you look at it.
Rescue Me
Rescue me from myself. Everyone should consider this thought.
If you take no action, you won’t improve. Yet we can be quite lazy or procrastinate or be distractible, and then do nothing. Yet we can justify the nothing and make up our own stories about why we haven’t changed or reached our goals in 5 years.
Sometimes we want someone to come and rescue us. But be clear, no one is coming to save you. You have to rescue yourself. I strongly suggest you get a plan together with dates, times, and actions, and get working on it today.
