Hi there Reader,

Do you do birthday goal setting?
​
My birthday was yesterday. I had a chance to hang out a bit with my husband and dogs up on the mountains. While there, I took a bit of time to work on my goals for next year. (Yes, it's pretty convenient that my birthday is pretty much at the half-way point for the calendar year...).
​
The most frustrating part of goal setting for me is when your goals stay the same year after year.

I have had "lose weight" as a goal at least 90% of the lifetime.

Mom had either the best or worst goal setting system. We would write out our goals on New Year's Eve, seal them in an envelope and put them on top of the grandfather clock. We would then open up last year's envelope. There is something to "out of sight out of mind" - most of the time - my new and old goals were *very* similar if not identical.
​
Sound familiar?

I've found the years where I've broken free of the grandfather clock goals is when I've been able to support other people in reaching their goals.
​
So this year, I want to help you break free. And, I'm having a mini-birthday collaboration celebration just for you. Here's what's on tap.
​
​Are you stuck because you have a question that you need answered? Join Jasper on Wednesday at 10 Pacific, 11 Mountain, 12 Central, 1pm Eastern for our Solo Biz Hacker Office Hours.

Do you have a task or two that would really help you make progress, but you just aren't getting it done? Join me for a Get It Done session on Friday starting at 9 Pacific, 10 Mountain, 11 Central, Noon Eastern and going for 3 hours. We'll start at 10 Mountain with a quick intro and goal for the next hour. We'll meet again for 10 minutes at the top of each hour to celebrate what we accomplished and plan our goals for the next hour. I get so much done on get it done days. If you want to come, reply to this message and RSVP, and I'll send you a calendar invite with the zoom link.

​Looking for some long term business besties? We believe that working with other people is the way to succeed faster. Figuring stuff out all by yourself doesn't work. Want to be part of a really awesome community who wants you to succeed? We are launching one - and are offering an amazing deal for founding members this week (both my coach and a few members of the Solo Biz Hacker Collective - this is priced WAY too low for a lifetime membership - but I want to reward people for taking a chance on us and getting in early). Here's a google doc to learn more and sign up.​

Hope you have an amazing day!
