………Wherever you gooooooooo!!
(in case you’re wondering) Yes that’s a play-on-words from The Beatles: Revolution.
On January 1, 2022 <still hard to believe it’s 2022, tho> – I couldn’t get that song out of my head for some reason. So – I looked it up and thought I’d breakdown the song lyrics versus what each one of us promises to do as our New Years Resolution(s).
Lyrics
You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it’s evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it’s evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don’t you know that you can count me out (in)
Don’t you know that you can count me out (in)
Don’t you know it’s gonna be
All right?
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
All right?
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We’d all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We’re all doing what we can
Well, you know
We’d all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We’re all doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
Don’t you know it’s gonna be (all right)
You say you’ll change the constitution
Well, you know
We’d all love to change your head
You tell me it’s the institution
Well, you know
You better free your mind instead
Well, you know
We’d all love to change your head
You tell me it’s the institution
Well, you know
You better free your mind instead
NEW YEAR – NEW YOU! <in ’22>
We ALL have great intentions to keep these resolutions, but how many and for how long?
I highlighted the lyrics in RED because that’s the KEY to the success of ANY business plan.
If you don’t write it down…….how can YOU hold yourself ‘Accountable’? It’s really that simple.
For years – I would tell myself that I’m gonna do this or I’m gonna do that……..which is all fine & dandy…….but 3-months from now will I really remember what I promised myself? The answer <most likely> is NO. That is <of course> unless you write it down and live each day by those promises – to yourself.
Just like with Santa Claus: Make a list and check it twice!!
I was lucky enough to have some really strong Mentors and Teachers in the business world who held ME accountable to make those goals and write them down. Then……strategically place those goals in areas that you normally spend your time:
*On the Bathroom Mirror
*In your Car
*At your Desk
*By your Computer
Then, share those goals with a friend or business partner—-I guarantee that they’ll have as much incentive to call you on-the-carpet IF you aren’t following your goals. Because ‘out-of-site’ really is ‘out-of-mind’.
So (like Ice Cube said)- Check yo self before you Wreck yo self!!
So my promise to YOU is that I will: STOP the REVOLUTION…….. and START the RESOLUTION
Good Luck and stay the course in ’22.
Because at Bullseye Marketing, we help our clients achieve THEIR goals……one STEP at a time!
