Some folks call me “the reality check in the room” because I can be very focused on details.

That doesn’t mean that I don’t have dreams or that you shouldn’t have or chase your dreams.

For many years after I came to the U.S., I had to live day-by-day because I carried a refugee document and was under government supervision and an order of deportation. This meant that on any given day I could have been uprooted, sent to jail or deported. I had no rights.

I just facilitated a workshop on the one thing you need to do to achieve your 2024 goals.

On a high level, the number one thing is FOCUS. We often get distracted by the minutia or noise that comes along.

It’s important to have dreams.

They were the only things that kept some of us going while we were growing up!

Having a plan is part of those dreams. While dreams may look far away and unreachable, with a plan you can start to see and believe in reaching the goals and the dreams.

“Setting long-term goals and keeping your eye on the results becomes key, especially given how time files, and when it is easy to be distracted on a daily basis.”

“Setting clear goals makes it easier for everyone to move towards achievement. When you simplify the message, it becomes easier to break it down into basic steps that can be set daily, weekly, or monthly.”
