2020 has been a year of challenges and it has now come to an end. Let us make 2021 a better year.

The aim of this giveaway is to help you start your journey of personal growth and professional success.

 The best step to take to achieve a big stretch goal is to understand very deeply why you want this goal and what motivates you to achieve sustained progress, and then address proactively your greatest fears about reaching this goal. 

 Setting your goals

The first thing to realise about goal setting is that there’s actually no such thing as “completing” your goals. As long as you’re growing and learning towards your future self, you’ll always keep adopting new goals and making new progress. The more you learn, the more you’ll want to discover.

Also, remember – Your goals will draw you into situations, relationships, and endeavors that will force you to adapt, change, and improve. Constant improvement will be its own reward and will fuel your desire for even more learning and growth. Therefore, it’s best to think about your bigger future as involving a balanced approach to life and your goal.

To inspire your goals, use the categories below to articulate your vision for your future in ten crucial areas of your life. You’ll find that some areas are easier to envision than others, but work to complete them all so that you’re maximizing all of your opportunities for growth. 

Using the COMMENT SECTION provided, record the MOST important improvement you want to make in each area – 1. HEALTH 2. MONEY 3. RELATIONSHIPS 4. TIME 5. PROFESSIONAL CAPABILITIES 6. REPUTATION 7. CLIENTS & CUSTOMERS 8. DELEGATION & TEAM WORK 9. CONTRIBUTION 10. SPIRITUAL & SELF 

Not sure how to set your goals, answer this very simple question – “If we were having this discussion 1 year from today, and you were to look back over that 1 year to today, what has to have happened both personally and professionally, for you to feel happy about your progress”. 

By posting your goals -resolution and sharing your post you will be holding yourself accountable. 

 Yes, it might seem scary and daunting but success lies beyond your comfort zone. 2020 has shown us the strength of human resilience and the power of kindness and humanity even in the most testing times. Let us manifest all the positive things we learned in 2020 and start 2021 on the right note

In 2004 Isabel Moritz had one of those ‘Ahah’ moments, when she recognised that putting together responses to tenders was what she should have been doing, instead of her current job. She did, however, stayed there to practise her bid skills until three years later, when the company was sold.  Ever since then Isabel has been a freelance bid writer, mainly supporting technical and engineering bids. For this she has drawn on her family engineering background and her years of experience in technical sales. Isabel feels she is very at home with engineers and technicians, even if they are busy and overstretched, when she help them by doing as much as possible of the work before sending it to them for review.

Charitable funding bids are some of the types of pro bono work she get involved with, as well as other voluntary organisations.

APMP has figured enormously in her bid career and she spent from 2010 to 2016 organising and initiating training events around the country, helped by a small but able team. APMP still occupies some of her spare time, as for so many others. According to Isabel, it is the voluntary aspect of people’s contributions that is so inspiring.

 Over the past five years she has focussed on the inclusion of APMP modules and best practices into university business degrees. Isabel is also part of APMP Intentional Career Path committee and am serving on the APMP CIC committee.
