Dear Family,
We're already a week into the fourth quarter, and for many of us, a realization is probably starting to set in. There are less than three months left in the year, and some of the goals we set for ourselves back in January are nowhere near where we expected them to be by now.
Maybe it was a goal for your business. Maybe you wanted to lose weight, save more money, spend more time with your family, or finally finish something you've been putting off. Whatever it was, October has a funny way of forcing you to confront the gap between what you said you wanted to accomplish and what you've actually done. If that's you, don't panic. The year isn't over.
But it might be time for what we're calling The Great Lock-In.
The Great Lock-In is simply a commitment to getting refocused and removing distractions. Instead of beating yourself up over what you haven't accomplished, take an honest look at where you are today, decide what still matters, and organize the rest of the year around making meaningful progress toward it.
