Friday John Ku – AKA TGIF

~ John W. Howell

TGIF

 

It looks like we survived the New Year’s celebrations and are close to the end of the work week. Since this was a short week we probably have a little energy left that we can invest in a terrific weekend. I know this week was quite stress-free for me. I managed to get my next book off to the beta readers and the edits to My GRL back to the editor. I think it as a good week. Sometimes working in a vacuum it is hard to say whether the week was good or not.  This is why having a goal or two established for the week gives you a measure of your movement. Now that these two tasks are accomplished I can turn back to getting my next book finished. Knock wood the first draft should be done by the end of April. This week’s John Ku talks about goals. I hope you have a great weekend.

Once they are written,

It is hard to ignore them. . .

Goals are persistent.

    1. I’m not a doctor but play one on TV. When he goes back you have to face the real world of fantasy instead of the fantasy aspect of the real world.In short no more fun back to work. (my opinion) 🙂

  7. Wishing you huge success with the goals and throughout 2017, John.
    After five years of failing to meet my southwest goal, I’m trying to figure out where else I might be happy. So I guess my goal is now to figure out what the heck my goal is! 😀
    TGIF for sure. Have a fantastic Friday. Hugs.

    1. Keep that goal. I have a suggestion. Write the goal down on a piece of paper and then place the paper in something that you have with you each day (clutch, purse whatever) You don’t have to look at it each day but you will know it is there. I did this when I wanted to reach a goal that at the time was impossible. I put it in my wallet (and sat on it everyday) I know it sounds silly but I got that goal. Fabulous Friday, Teagan. Hugs

      2. More of an affirmation then; a statement of the desired result of the goal… That I can understand. And yes, I definitely need help visualizing, believing, and manifesting. I see what you are saying now.

  12. Super job! Writing down our goals helps make us accountable for them, helps us embrace them more fully, and gives us a better chance to attain them. Sounds as if your 2017 is off to a good start, John.

    1. I used to love the goal review. I always made it a point to try and knock them out of the park. My last boss was a thirty something and she would discount achievement by stating the goals were not tough enough. I used to throw one in that was totally impossible and somehow got it done.We would argue and then I would get a meets rating (Marked down from Far Exceeds which was established by her peers in comparing me to all others) The difference between meets and far exceeds hit you in the stock award and percent of bonus area.

      1. Ugh, I can’t stand those managers. The partner I worked for once gave me straight “Exceeds Expectations” on every line and an overall rating of “Meets…” He said “I expected you to exceed my expectations.” That was the only one that impacted the bonus 😦
