You chose your goals for 2026. I hope you wrote them down. If you made them clear and specific, go back and review them. If you didn’t, go spend a few minutes refining them and putting in details and timeframes.
Then stick to your decisions. Do not waver. You erode your confidence if you do not honour your decisions.
It’s the first Sunday of the new year. Take a break and enjoy the moment. The fun and frantic of Christmas and New Year are now over. You can relax and enjoy the calm now that you’ve made it through.
It’s a great day to catch your breath and reflect before you launch into an exciting and fast paced new year on Monday. You’ll need all your energy to keep up with this exciting new year and be able to squeeze the juice from this amazing opportunity we all have before us.
Put your feet up. Relax. Enjoy. Recalibrate. Re-energise. And prepare your mind for the success of 2026!
Hope you still have your New Year’s Momentum! Now you need to create a habit and get some discipline going. Keep your goal in sight. Move forward on it everyday.
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!

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!
There are evil forces everywhere; be alert to them. Do not let them get a foothold.
Turn the phone off. Direct your attention to those closest to you. Do this in person if at all possible.
These are moments you will remember. The laughter and fun, and the time together.
There’s always a palpable sense of joy around Christmas. Whether it is a religious feeling of celebration or a warm memory of great gifts or family and all the traditions, there is an excitement in the air and it is wonderful.
I hope you get this joyful feeling whatever your situation is. Best wishes and Merry Christmas!
Let others know the highlights you’ve had. Allow them to get to know you. Your bond will strengthen.
Take time to wind down. Enjoy time with parents, siblings, children, other family and friends. Relax. Play. Unwind. And be kind.
