Plan for Steady Improvement
Once you set priorities, identify the specific actions you’ll take in addressing them, as well as the attitude you will bring to the actions. Both are necessary to bring about meaningful change.

What ACTIONS can I perform on a regular basis?
Choose SMART actions:

  • Specific
  • Measurable
  • Action-Focused
  • Realistic
  • Time-Bound

What ATTITUDES will maximize my actions?
Choose attitudes that are:

  • Purposeful
  • Productive
  • Possibility

What can I do on a regular and perhaps daily basis to address each of my chosen priorities to make my dreams come true?
For example, if one of your priorities is to improve your marriage, then a key action might be ,“I go out of my way to do something special for my spouse once a week.”

What must I believe about myself and my performance as I take these actions?
Create powerful Power Statements that describe what you want to achieve as a result of your actions, but phrase them in present tense.
