I.M.P.A.C.T Challenge
It's called I.M.P.A.C.T. and The Chamber challenges its members to make an "IMPACT" in 2010.
This is what it stands for:
I = Integrity. Doing what is right each and every time. Get up early and do something!M = Mission. Having a purpose bigger than yourself. Not just settling for a "career" when you can have an impact on the world; not just settling for success when you can stand for significance.
P = Preparation. Proper preparation produces peak performance! What are you preparing for in your life and business?
A = Action. Having the courage to move forward, despite most likely facing some adversity or fear. Furthermore, continue to offer simple acts of random kindness. An example would be buying a cup of coffee for the person behind you at Starbucks.
C = Commitment. Throwing yourself whole-heartedly into something. Are you playing it safe or are you shooting for significance? Dont' be afraid of the collision, don't be afraid of the impact, start taking action on what you want and commit to its success.
T = Tenacity. Being tough enough to finish strong. Not only do we have to start the year strong, we need to finish what we started. So many of us start a project but never finish it. Many of us have 10 projects going on at the same time and never give one project the laser-like focus it may need to complete the task. Get it done and be tenacious in doing so!
I hope you are looking to create an IMPACT-ful year. As you create your strategy for 2010, think about this acronym and be sure your life is inspiring others around you to live better lives.
Lastly, think about a theme for 2010 that is bigger than you. "The Year of Significance", "The Year of Change", "The Year of IMPACT" are all examples. Think about what drives you and come up with a theme that can elevate your career & your life.
Our friends, The Chamber wishes you a very happy, successful and IMPACT-ful year.
