OC123: Best Year Ever: Start with Why

Most of our resolutions and goals fail for one big reason....they are "what's" and "what's" don't inspire us.  Our goals of dropping 20 lbs., starting a new business, launching a new social media platform or adding followers are all "what's" Simon Sinek says "There are only two ways to influence human behavior: you can manipulate it or you and inspire it."  The way to inspire your own behavior is to discover the why behind the what.   What's don't get you out of bed in the morning and they don't keep you awake at night.  They don't keep you focused and determined.... they're short lived and mechanical.  A why, it motivates you to later behavior, make sacrifices and put in the hard work required to find true success. If you want to live your best year ever, start with why!   This is Day Two of "Your Best Year Ever".
