Editorial Review

When it comes to achieving our goals, I know a lot of us feel like that: We start out strong and make huge strides, gathering momentum as we go. Then we get derailed or fall short of our hopes. Not always—but often enough that most of us can point to a handful of setbacks or failures with disappointment and regret.  Nothing symbolizes this kind of frustration like New Year’s resolution. People have been making them since forever. But just because something is popular doesn’t mean it works. We can usually stick it out a few weeks. But fewer than half are still going after six months. Less than 10 percent are ultimately successful. In fact, many of us stop making resolutions because we’ve failed at them in the past. Welcome to the club. Based on decades of practical experience and the best current research on goal attainment and human achievements, this program is designed to help you find the clarity, develop the courage, and leverage the commitment you need to accomplish your most important personal and professional goals—to finally get your breakthrough year.   

Book Reviews

"Michael has been a trusted friend and guide of mine for a long time. This is a playbook for success in the relationships, endeavors, and beautiful ambitions you have for yourself and the ones you love the most."

"Let's be honest . . . resolutions just don't work. That's why a lot of gyms are empty and even more budgets are blown by Valentine's Day every year. If you really want things to change over the next twelve months, look at whatYour Best Year Everhas to say--then do what it says."

"Generous goals work (if you write them down) and powerful books work (if you read them). Michael Hyatt has created a fun, fast way to find your dreams and then turn them into reality."

There’s an old saying: “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it rhymes.”

Our habits of thinking tend to produce consistent results no matter what’s going on in our work, our relationships, or the world around us.

To shield ourselves from future disappointment, we develop a cynical, self-protective attitude toward life.

The difference between an unmet goal and personal success is the belief that it can be achieved.

It’s easy to spot limiting beliefs in our own thinking if we’re attentive

You don’t have to be hemmed in by limiting beliefs. You can exchange them for liberating truths. As you stated what you wanted to happen, you probably became aware of gaps.

If something in your beliefs and behaviors contributed to the gap between what you wanted to happen and what actually happened, something has to change.

Effective goals are relevant to your life.

You need to set goals that are relevant to your actual circumstances and interests.

A big goal is only half the equation. If you expect to experience your best year ever, you must take action.
