At work, if you’re feeling nervous about the end of the fourth quarter, then you should relax and focus on year end goals. You started the year with great plans and now you’re running out of days to get it all done.
It’s understandable that you’re feeling a certain amount of stress about the situation. But keep in mind that holiday breaks and vacations mean you probably have fewer days, than you think, to get things done.
Motivational keynote speaker, Ken Okel, talks to audiences about ways you can easily improve your performance on the job and being able to approach your year end goals with confidence is an important skill. In this episode of our Quick Leadership Tips series, some of the things you will learn include:
- Why you need to step back and evaluate your progress toward your year end goals;
- How not reaching your year end goals may be a sign that you were busy with unexpected or other priorities;
- Why you need to make a list and prioritize your year end goals;
- Why you can’t accomplish everything on your list and why you may not be the right person to do certain things;
- How you can focus on year end goals by asking a simple question that can help you determine urgency.
