What’s Your 4th Quarter Plan?
 
You may be feeling like this year has been full of chaos, uncertainty, confusion and rapid changes, but it’s time to focus on finishing the year out strong.  Yes, it’s been a struggle for many people so far this year.  Some of you may have experienced trials and obstacles, while others of you have experienced you’re best year ever.  
 
Regardless of where you are now or what has happened so far this year, the fact remains that games are won or lost in the 4th quarter.  You can absolutely finish this year strong.  The best leaders and achievers are the ones that FINISH the race strong, not the ones that START the race strong.  We are in the 4th quarter.  There are still several months left in this year, and I’ve got good news for you.  You can STILL make this year a monumental year if you will Get Focused, Execute on Your Plan, and Never Look Back.  
 
There are many ways you can immediately create momentum and forward progress in your life, but the decision has to be made by you.  I am challenging you to Stop, Take a Minute, and Focus on Creating a 4th Quarter Plan for you and your business.
 
I want to provide you with 10 ideas on how you can make it happen starting today.  I hope these ideas will inspire your own creativity and motivate you to take control of your 4th quarter in a big way.  Ultimately, you have everything inside you to WIN the Game in the 4th quarter.  It comes down to you…
 
  1. Dig Deep
    1. you have a much higher level you could be playing at
    2. raise your level of urgency and make it a must

    2. remind yourself of your goals
    3. make it about more than just yourself...
  4. Get Creative
    1. sometimes the best way to make a change is to make a change
    2. use your creative brain and not just your logical brain
    3. think like your consumer or people you service
  5. Focus on Your Strength
    1. get out of the competent zone
    2. delegate or eliminate anything in the incompetent range
    3. what is the value of your time…remember that
  6. Serve Others
    1. its not about you
    2. none of us “feel like doing the work”
    3. serving others will give you energy and focus
  7. Inspire Others
    1. dont just look to motivate…people dont only need motivation
    2. inspiration comes from leaders
    3. inspiration comes from within others not from you
  8. Don’t Look Back
    1. remember the past is over and the future doesn’t exist
    2. don't drag your baggage with you or its hard to win the race
    3. you are not the person from yesterday
  9. Practice Gratitude
    1. the simplest way to get out of a rut
    2. the best way to attract more into your life
    3. always be grateful for what you WILL have
  10. Start Each Day Strong
    1. get out of the gates quickly and effectively
    2. daily rituals are the key
    3. choose things that are Personal to you
 
Also, I think it is important for you to remember this…
 
You are the player in your game of life, but you are also the Coach, Referee, and Judge.  You write the rules that you are judged by, not anyone else.  You are in control of how you play the game, rule the game and keep score.  So, don’t let anyone or anything in your life try to convince you otherwise.  Make a decision and a commitment to play at 100% through the rest of the year.
 
Don’t leave anything on the court.  Don’t start the year with any regrets as to how you’ve played in 2020.  I know that you have greatness inside of you.  I know that you can create the life you were meant to live, so let’s go make it happen.
 
Thanks for listening. George Wright III
