How is your New Year coming so far? I ask that question because statistics show that 80% of New Year’s resolutions fail by February. I think that if we are honest with ourselves, we can all admit to being guilty of this in some area of our lives, whether personal or professional.
Having the right community can help you gain momentum and keep your vision in front of you. This is what I love about YES! As an individual, I am only capable of growing a certain amount. Within this community, I am able to partner with like-minded individuals, access new resources, other people’s knowledge, experience, and influence. I find myself surrounded by talented people who challenge me, that help me grow, and that inspire me.
This community cannot be with just anyone. YES has cultivated a forum of business owners and executives that are always delivering meaningful messages and stories. As I set out to accomplish the goals that I so carefully laid out at the beginning of the year, surely I am going to experience days of frustration and disappointment. Yet through all of the stories that have been told by these successful business owners and CEO’s, I have learned that they too have had those days. Words of wisdom have been dished out on how to face fears, make tough decisions, push past failures, and to stay focused on the opportunities.
No one achieves success by accident, it is intentional.
