I promised you a blog or two ago, that I would post my business BOLD GOAL for you to witness.
Well, here goes (insert a ‘super gulp’ here):
My business bold financial goal for 2010 is to break through the 6-figure imaginary threshold that I’ve kept myself well within for the past decade. 6 figures is over double what I’ve been making over the past few years. The original number I had in mind when I wrote the goal was $125,000 but, then, I got thinkin’ … that’s quite a comfortable number for me (as in, it doesn’t make me gulp, or scare the you-know-what out of me).
What’s the point of a comfortable number? It doesn’t stretch the boundaries of my imagination and, therefore, doesn’t create a lot of incentive. And, by not stretching my boundaries, it doesn’t cause me to grow at any level. If I’m not growing and evolving, what am I doing?
So, I chose a new number: $275,000. I decided that I may as well continue a little past the line if I’m going to cross it! That number causes me to both gulp and scares the you-know-what out of me at the same time. Therefore, it stands to reason, that I will be putting a lot more effort into my business this year!
By the way, I didn’t see any ‘comments’ or ‘posts’ from any of you with any of your bold goals. I know you’re reading this. Come on out of the closet, people! Post it here. It doesn’t matter what the number is, simply that it needs to stretch you a little and take you out of your comfort zone. This is not a place to compare your number with others. It’s a place to ‘bring it to life’ for your business. Let others see what you’re planning. Tell the universe you’re serious. Go ahead. I’m waiting …

Despite all the wonderful meals during Christmas (and New Year’s), I’ve managed to hold my weight – another coup! Perhaps, it has something to do with the ‘blue moon’ last night and a little bit with consciously choosing what I ate and enjoyed. Admittedly, New Year’s eve was waaayy too much food – a four-course dinner at a fancy dining room while listening to live music. As Grandma (88) was with us, we chose the early sitting and got back home in time to see Canada win in Junior Hockey; watch a slideshow of my brother-in-law’s family trip to Laos and Grandma’s trip to France and England with her 2 boys; then, the traditional ‘Dick Clark’ ball in New York countdown. It was a lovely evening and a great way to start the new year.

I’ve spent quite a few hours this past week deciding what to update on my www.SueCrutcher.com website; delegating those tasks to my webmaster (it’s such a pleasure to have a small ‘team’ now – which began in January 2009); and overseeing the placement of my FREE GIFT “5 simple steps you can take now to ensure that 2010 is a profitable year for you and your business.” We figured out how to work the autoresponders and are very pleased.
My order for postcards and business cards for my upcoming week in Tucson, where I will be spending time with Kendall Summerhawk as one of her ‘Platinum Inner Circle’ participants, came in just in the nick of time (new year’s eve).
2010 has begun and I’ve already added a new member to my ‘team’ just today! So, I’m up to 3: a bookkeeper, webmaster and transcriber.
This time last year, I only imagined having a ‘team’, now I’m on my way — only 365 days later! So much in so little time…
Reminder: If you don’t hear from me before January 15 or so, it’s because I simply got caught up in the last minute details of preparing to leave January 4 for Tucson. Due to airline restrictions, I’m leaving my laptop at home to make my journey through the airports a little easier.
I’ll be meeting friends and acquaintances in Tucson and meeting lots of new people as well. You’ll hear all about it when I get back! I can’t wait to find out what’s in store for us at Kendall’s “Platinum Inner Circle” live event.
CREATE a wonderful, prosperous year for yourself!
