EP43: How to Achieve Everything You Want in 2021
Hello Chit Chatters! 
I want to start this week's episode by saying Thank you! Thank you for make 2020 an amazing year! I embarked on this journey as a podcaster in March and launched "Chit Chat with José Miguel" in April. By May I pivoted and changed the name to "Life & Business Coaching for Millennials" 
I am so proud, grateful and blessed for what we've built together! This podcast has been a blessing in so many ways. Even though 2020 has been a year like no other, you all showed up to listen to me rant and share topics that I felt were important for the world to listen to,  but also things that lit up my soul. 
As we close the chapter on 2020 and say goodbye to one of the most difficult years in many of our lifetimes, I want to welcome 2021 with you in helping you achieve everything you want! 
Every year I find the best planner to help me map out my year. As time has gone by, I've reflected on the year that is coming to a close to see how I've grown and achieved my goals and my resolutions.
I use this to outline and map what brought me the most energy and joy in my goals and activities. 
To achieve everything you want, you have to be really self-aware of the things that will bring you the most joy and happiness because otherwise you will get stuck and feel like you're not taking any action in achieving your goals. This also means you need to be realistic!
To help you stay focused and productive and be successful, think about the things you want to focus on and will help you create your best life! If it doesn't energize then save for later. It's okay to put it on the back burner for another time. Don't send precious energy on time to things that don't feed your soul!
Envision all of the things you want for yourself in 2021. Dream big and think how they are going to give you the life you want to live. Use the prompts below to help you map them out
Here's my strategy and prompts:
 
What do you want to become in the new year? 
What are the projects that you feel will bring you the most joy and energy?
What does the year look like for you?
How do you want to spend your time? 
Make a list of all the things you want to achieve 
From your list pick the top 3 things that are the most important to you and will help you create the best life for your year.
Circle the top 3 and write down why they are the most important. 
 
**DISCLOSURE** I borrowed the statements below from one of my favorite coaches Marie Forleo
For each one connect the following statements to it:
I'd love you to start
I'd love you to remember
I'd love you to focus on
These prompts are from Marie's Decade In Review from 2020. I love how she uses them to help people think beyond just making a list and actually visualizing what can be done. 
 
Implement these to your top 3 list. This will help you reflect but also give you perspective on your values and how you will spend your time! 
 
Next, think about the things that you might need to learn to actually accomplish these goals. Have awareness of what skills you need to develop and be able to train or learn them. This will impact your energy, motivation and time.
 
I encourage use of a journal or planner to map this exercise and activity out. Think about what form of accountability and support you're going to need to help you achieve these goals and be realistic so you can be successful in 2021!
 
Thank you all for being an amazing part of my heart and community. I am so excited for all of the beautiful episodes and things we are going to create in 2021. This podcast is just getting started and the best is yet to come!
