Preparation for a transformative 6 months

Become first.

There’s just over a month left until we're halfway through 2024. Think about the goals you set for this year. With almost 50% of the time gone, are you halfway there?

This might seem a bit premature since we’re not yet at the end of June, the official halfway point. However, if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it's that the preparation period is just as important as the execution period. Becoming the person required to achieve your goals significantly increases your chances of success. Most people overlook this step.

Before the new year started, I took December 2023 off social media and used that time to reflect and strategise for my 2024 goals. I focused on the person I needed to become to achieve these goals. As a result, I have accomplished almost every goal I set for the first half of 2024. I had a plan and spent December preparing to become the person required for my goals, making their achievement almost inevitable. A lot of you have already seen those goals come to fruition and know how big those goals were.

My point is, instead of waiting for mid-year to reset and refocus on your goals, reflect on them now. Spend June becoming the person and building the habits you need to achieve your remaining goals for the year. For example, one of my goals for the end of the year is to become more consistent with uploading on YouTube. While I have managed to upload somewhat frequently, I can honestly say I have not spent the last five months becoming the person I need to be to consistently produce high-quality videos. As part of my process to become the person I need to be for the second half of the year, I am hiring an editor and making a few necessary purchases. With the editor, I'll spend the next four weeks teaching them my style, getting practice working with them, and building up my content vault. This way, I’ll have all my videos prepared weeks in advance, ensuring I don't miss a week. If I were to start this on July 1st, it would probably take until August to really get into a flow, and I wouldn’t have the full six months of consistency to see the transformation.

If you’re not on track to accomplish the goals you set for 2024, there’s still plenty of time. Six months of hard work and dedication can put you years ahead. You can still lose that weight, find a great partner, relocate to a new country, get a new job, or achieve whatever it is you want. A good goal should require you to assume a new identity to achieve so spend the next month becoming the person you need to be so when the 1st of July comes around, you’re ready.
