The Printwhisperer Holiday Tips:

Manifest your destiny.

As I look back on 2016 I’m extremely proud of what I and those around me have accomplished this year. I have gone from 2 printers to 11 (no joke). And at least half of them are booked 24/7. How did I do it? I wrote it down. Early this year I wrote down my goals. One of them was that I wanted to expand my business at least double every year.

So… with the holiday ahead and a new year take some time for yourself in solitude and write down your goals. This can be as simple as a few minutes. Separate yourself from distractions and dig deep. No goal is too high. If you already have goals written take some time to reestablish them. Come up with a gameplan on how you see yourself executing them or a chain of events you need to make them happen.

Be specific. Don’t be vague with your goals. The more specific you are the better. As a role model of mine David Wolfe says “If you want to be terrific, you’ve got to be specific.”

Some of my goals this next year:
Finish Duolingo Spanish course 1 in the next 2 months.
Finish my pet projects in Q1: Sonar well sensor, Ham repeater, secret projects… etc.
Find 2 homeless people in my town per month and help and talk with them.
High intensity train at least 2 times per week.
Go backpacking at least once per month.

I carry this everywhere I go. Not joking. Even hiking:
Moleskine Classic Notebook
