There are two types of people reading this article. We will categorize them as the individuals who are semi-satisfied with how they produced their dreams in 2023 and those who let life's obstacles get in the way of achieving their dreams. Regardless of the category, whether a Millennial, Boomer, or Gen Xer, from the e-commerce entrepreneur to the c-suite executive to gearheads and sneakerheads, we all have dreams, goals, and aspirations that we want to accomplish in the next 365 days.
If 2023 didn't end as expected and you have a burning desire to achieve more, you have come to the right place to ensure you have the tools, resources, and game plans to succeed in 2024.
In this article, we will:
- Understand the difference between vision and site.
- Review tips to identify the goals that genuinely make an impact in life.
- Set a Roadmap to Success using SMART goals.
- Dive deeper into how to go all in on producing dreams and bring them from vision to site in the new year.
Bringing Your VISION to SITE
Vision and site are commonly mistaken to be the same but serve two separate purposes.
Vision is defined as what is seen with the heart. For example, before Thomas Edison created the light bulb, he envisioned a more efficient and effective way to bring light into the dark. He brought his vision to the site after ten thousand failed attempts to create the light bulb, and we still benefit from this creation.
Site is defined as what an individual sees with the eyes. In other words, site is when everyone can see your vision with their eyes. Because of Mr. Edison's vision, we can effectively and efficiently bring light and electricity into dark places.
Too often, visions die and go unproduced due to a lack of resources, roadmaps, and motivation. Whether satisfied or semi-satisfied with production levels in 2023, there are areas to improve. While setting goals for this year, let this information serve as knowledge and motivation along the journey to optimize the winning approach to becoming a better leader, visionary, and producer of dreams in 2024.
Identify Goals That Genuinely Make An Impact
Time waits for no one, so let's plan to make an impact with every second we have. Stephen Covey's magnum opus "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" conducted what we know as the Funeral Exercise in which you plan your funeral. What would you want friends to say about you? Family? Colleagues? If you think about these answers, even "listening" to what specific people would say – or better yet, what you'd like them to say, what might your life look like going forward? Playing those kinds of tapes can help you prioritize your goals and bring clarity to the impact we will make throughout this year.
Set Our Roadmap to Success
Setting our goals is crucial in fueling our dreams and providing direction and purpose to the vision. It details the framework and the steps you will take to help everyone else see with their natural eyes what you've seen in your heart, thoughts, dreams, and visions. Whether personal or professional, setting goals helps us prioritize and apply focus and direction to win our day, leading to monthly victories. Once we routinely win these micro-moments, we will ultimately accomplish our goals for the year and make a lasting impact on our long-term goal. By winning our hourly and daily goals, we establish winning habits that will lead to our success and, therefore, lead to the production of our dreams.
So how do we do this? Now that we know how we want to impact the world, let's discuss our plan. We do this by developing SMART goals. SMART is SMART, which is an acronym — each letter represents a different quality your goal should have to give you the best chance of completing it. SMART stands for:
• Specific
• Measurable
• Achievable
• Relevant
• Time-bound
SMART GOALS help you clarify what you want to achieve, how you will measure progress, whether it's realistic and attainable, whether it aligns with your growth, and provides a realistic timeline to reach your destination.
Setting our SMART goals is crucial in fueling our dreams and providing direction and purpose to our vision. It details the framework and the steps needed to be taken to help everyone else see what you've seen in your heart, thoughts, dreams, and visions. Whether personal or professional, setting goals helps us prioritize and apply focus and direction to win our day, leading to monthly victories and, ultimately, accomplishing our goals for the year.

Hydration
Drinking eight glasses of water daily may be a myth, but we are setting the standard. Staying hydrated increases focus and energy, helping produce great ideas. In short, drinking enough water not only helps overall brain health but also helps brain function in everyday life.
Prioritize Well-being
Well-being combines physical, mental, emotional, and social health. Well-being is strongly linked to happiness and satisfaction. You can take general actions to improve your well-being, such as breathing exercises, journaling, gardening, reading, exercising, and yoga.
Physical Activity
Exercise can improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities.
