How to Follow Through on Your Plans and Goals This Year

The following post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure statement.

Hey, homeschoolers!

In the last episode, I gave three reasons we don't follow through with our plans and goals. You'll want to listen to that episode first if you haven't already. I had a mom tell me she hoped I could help her get past those three obstacles. I hope I can too. I want to share how I believe you can follow through with your plans and goals this year.

Before we dive in, I want to say this. I believe that God is the source of our strength and success. I know He deserves all the credit for the changes in my life. My degree in psychology, my natural abilities, and the dozens of books I've read have all failed to change me in terms of getting organized, helping me lose weight, homeschooling my kids, improving my patience, or writing books. In fact, most of the time those qualifications have gotten in the way of my success. It's only been when I have confessed to God that I can't and don't know how and need Him to take over that anything lasting and worthwhile has occurred.

What I want to share with you today is wisdom that I believe the Lord gave me as I sought Him over and over again for help getting past my procrastination, disorganization, and addictions to get more done. But always take anything I suggest to you to the Lord yourself and ask Him to give you discernment for whether it is right for you in this season of your life. With that important disclaimer out of the way, let's talk about how we can overcome three important obstacles to following through this year.

Resources for following through on your plans and goals

Today I'm launching my book, A Year of Living Productively.

Buy the PDF for just $7.50!

The advantage of the digital PDF version is click-and-go access to the strategies you're most interested in. And during the launch from now through December 16th, you'll save 25% off the PDF list price. Get the book for just $7.50, or bundle the book and the digital Organized Homeschool Life Planner for just $22.50. If you haven't gotten your copy of The Organized Homeschool Life book, you can add it to the bundle and pay just $30 for all three resources.

Buy on Amazon

If you'd like the Kindle or print version, A Year of Living Productively is also available on Amazon. If you know a productivity junkie, someone who struggles with procrastion like I did, or anyone who wants to follow through and achieve their goal, A Year of Living Productively makes a great gift. Note that A Year of Living Productively is not a faith-based book but The Organized Homeschool Life is.

My prayer is that you can overcome the obstacles that keep you from following through with your plans and goals so that next year will be your most productive year ever.
