072: Committed to the Pursuit WITH CEIL DIGUGLIELMO

With me again on the podcast is Ceil DiGuglielmo. Ceil and I had a joint podcast at the end of 2018 and agreed to do another based on the feedback. Ceil is owner of the Curtain and Soft Furnishings Library as well as Sew Much More podcast and also a drapery workroom by the same name. We are going to share how we approach a review of our company at year-end, how our thoughts and impressions impact our goal setting, what our goals look like, and the exercises we go through to help form our thinking and intentions. We would love for you to share your exercises and thoughts with us after you listen. Enjoy the podcast.

Topics Mentioned:

• Goal setting
• Yearly review
• Year-end exercises
• SWOT

Thoughts from Ceil:

• The word “Obligation” feels heavy.
• Outer expectations are what helps me get things accomplished.
• I have always cared way too much what people thought about me.
• The ability for me to stop and ask “What do I want?” has increased.
• Maybe we need to use the word “appointment” more in order to stick with things.
• Be committed to the pursuit.

Thoughts from Michele:

• My processor doesn't turn off.
• I love to talk and I love to process externally.
• feel like if I'm going to spend time talking to somebody, I want to make an impact.
• Am I willing to get up and go get my booty moving because my calendar tells me to?
• I can't just be connected to “I want to be financially sound.”…I have to be connected to the pursuit of being financially sound.
