“Investing in yourself is the most valuable investment you will ever
make. You will grow as a leader, which will in turn allow you to empower other
leaders and equip them to lead at a higher level.”
– Amber Fogarty, SOS
Leadership Partner
I have to admit that I am probably like most people; I am
sitting here just now realizing that one fourth of 2013 has already flown by,
and I still have many of my goals left to accomplish. In December of 2012 I set
a range of both professional and personal goals. As I was reviewing my top 10
goals list, I realized that I have only accomplished two of the 10 thus far.
Oddly enough, the two I accomplished were my 9th and 10th
ranked goals.
As I went back and looked at my other eight goals I also
reviewed what I wrote down as a reason for making each of these items a goal.
For six of the eight goals my reasoning was simple, to become a better me. I am
a young professional who is still trying to find my way, which is the most
exciting part of it all. I realize how
important it is to keep growing, to keep learning, and to keep investing in
myself. If SOS Leadership has taught me one thing, it is that it is never
to late to accomplish your goals.
I re-worked the deadlines and tweaked some of my eight goals
that I have left on my list to accomplish this year. I know I will accomplish
these goals because: I want to become the best version of myself, I want to be
leader who makes a difference, and I want to equip other leaders to lead at a
higher level. I can do all this by setting goals and accomplishing those goals.
In 2013 I choose to invest in myself!
