7. Just get started Feeling totally paralyzed and stuck? Do something! Do anything. One small step and any action at all will help to start propelling you forward. Think about it. When you take one step you can’t help but take another. The same holds true for getting things done. One foot in front of the other will build momentum and before you know it you’ll cover a great distance.

8. Get support One of the biggest reasons successful people, especially athletes succeed is that they enlist the help of other experts. Accountability and support is critical. No one can do it all alone as we are all connected. The power of the group mind is awesome. Get a buddy, hire a coach, or start a mastermind group - just get started and surround yourself with great people who will inspire you and hold your feet to the fire.

9. Mind Your Energy Your energy level is the most important part of the plan. If you have no energy, you have no forward motion and end up going nowhere. Just pushing through it is a myth. You will be more energized if you stay focused on what you DO want and balance action and activity with inaction and quiet. Your mind and body needs this ying and yang in order to sustain the energy needed over the long haul to not only complete but also enjoy the journey of any project you undertake. Work smarter, not harder, is not just a cliché.

10. Acknowledge yourself for what you’ve done not what is still on the to-do list. Much like the mini-parties this step is crucial. Are you always looking at what is left on the to-do list? If so, it is time you started a list of accomplishments and started focusing on that. Lack brings more lack. If you want more of what you DO want, focus on what you already have and have already accomplished. It will not only make you feel good it’ll truly motivate you to keep moving forward.

Ask yourself: How will it feel when you have it completed?

Use these powerful feelings to help propel you forward. Most importantly indulge in getting some of those feelings right now, today so you aren’t living for some "future" that may or may not arrive.
