Share your goals with others

Seek supportive people to help you over the next 4 weeks

Who will you turn to for support?

Celebrate success

How will you reward yourself when you succeed in achieving your goal?

Believe you will succeed and you will. A positive attitude is more important than ability. See obstacles aschallenges and be willing to do what others wont. If your goal is important then take personal responsibil-ity. Be accountable to yourself, own your actions and dont blame others.

Most of all take action, have fun and if you achieve your goals then keep on making a difference.

Step 5 - Program
