While keeping track of your New Year resolutions,
see here.
Here is something to help you be a Go-Getter girl this year.
Often, you have heard; "She's such a go-getter",
perhaps to describe a friend, sister or colleague, and how you admire them and
wish to be like them.
A go-getter is an
aggressively enterprising person who works very hard/smart and who wants very
much to succeed. She is strategic in decision making and wants to make a
lasting impression or positive mark on her friends, family, work and the world.
To be a go-getter girl,
Firstly, you need to just do
it!
Yes, the go-getter is the person who acts now, not
tomorrow, and thinks in short-terms.
They
are proactive, not reactive. They shape their own destiny and never allow
themselves to fall prey to the so-called external circumstances.
So are
there any plans/Vision you have in mind to achieve this year? Do it already!
Note
that a vision is not the same as a plan; a vision is more broad-based and
fluid, whereas a plan is much more structured. Working with a vision in mind is
very helpful, as it allows us to take a deep dive into the future, and almost,
work backwards to figure out what we should be doing today if we want to
achieve our vision 5, 10, or even 20 years from now.
Ask
yourself always “What is the smallest next step”, “What do I need to do now, to
get things going?” Do it! Set the ball rolling.
Believe
that something within you is greater to overcome the obstacles that may obscure
the road to success.
Every
go-getter girl believes that she has strengths and capabilities that help her
jump over all the hurdles in her path. There are roadblocks we face every
single day, times that make us lose hope, give up, or even quit. But, in those
times, we have to channel our inner go-getter girl and believe that we, quite
simply, are better than this, and that our purpose is far greater than what we
may even think. Ultimately, becoming confident in ourselves and believing that
we can succeed is a good step to becoming a go-getter girl.
Love what you do
Key to
getting off your feet and kicking some ass is simply doing what you’re good at
and what you love. Be passionate about what you do. Give it your best
shot. Your passion keeps you fired and going, do not go about being grumpy and
all. The same is true for relationships. It is not very attractive
to be with someone who spends his time complaining about what he/she does for a
living.
It is
equally important to integrate some of our passion to our profession/vocation. For
some of us, it may be golf, and for others it is dance. Whatever it may be, we
should hold on to our passions and find a way to integrate them into our
profession/vocation. I have always noticed that the go-getters regularly manage
to combine their passions into their work so that they are fulfilled and happy.
Making sure that we focus on our passions even at work enables us to feel
enriched, excited, and very enthusiastic.
What
are the qualities that make you a go-getter girl? Comments are welcome!
