Amen.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, amen, beautiful. Wow, love you guys, this is a beautiful moment and
we're going to jump into this review action, so I've got a little bit of a
review process and I don't think that I'll specifically go through a review
form, oh yeah Jesus, more, I just thank you for fresh anointing for me right now,
Trinity as I share this word, more of you, may your power, may your love, may it
saturate, may it flood and fill and wrap around every heart afresh. So, whoa, whoa,
more, more, more, more, more, oh, good stuff. So, let me just run through a little, a few
review questions with you, just to see how you did, see what you can learn from
the process. There's always value in putting a date on your goals.
If you don't put a date, if you don't put a time on your goal, it's not a goal.
You can only call something a goal if you put a timeline on it of when you want it to
be accomplished by.
Now one thing that's really important with goals etc is just to make sure that they don't
wreck your life.
You don't want goals to tyrannize you.
You don't want goals to oppress you.
You want goals to serve you.
So that's one reason why you do a review process and in a review process it's definitely
not time to stress out.
When you're reflecting, when you're reviewing progress, it is definitely not a time to freak
out.
It's just a time to gather information and when you set a goal and you put a timeline
on it, sometimes I put really strict timelines on myself, sometimes I find that the goals
that I've set are unrealistic and I have to re-strategize.
So there's a number of goals that I set for myself this year that I didn't accomplish.
Either at the time that I set them and then things changed, circumstances might have changed,
I might not have had enough time, I might have overestimated my time or my ability to
get that done in that time.
So it's really important that you are just really, really relaxed with your timelines
if you get to your review date of when you want to have it accomplished and if you haven't
made it, then relax.
It's so counterproductive to go into a sense of condemnation because you did not attain
a goal.
Imagine how sad it would be if your goal was to no longer have any condemnation in your
life by this particular date and when that particular date came around you were nearly
off condemnation but simply because you didn't make the date of your goal, you then started
to heap condemnation on yourself.
It would be counterproductive.
So yeah, we want to stop and reflect.
So I want you just to think of one of your significant goals that you were going after,
what was the date that you had on it.
Hopefully you've got some that were roughly dated around the 8th of December when we said
we were going to aim for getting our goals accomplished.
By the way, welcome everyone, really, really love all of you guys and as I say often, whether
you are joining us live or whether you are joining us in delayed coverage, it is a delight,
it is absolutely amazing to have you on board and sharing this adventure together.
So think of your specific goal, we're going to jump into the review process now, short
and sweet and it's going to be powerful and punchy.
So when you're setting goals, remember there's five things that your goals need.
First of all, your goal needs to be specific.
And a goal is specific, specific, a specific goal.
When you've got a specific goal, you can really tell if you've attained it or if you have
not attained it and that's really good, you've got to be able to know exactly when you have
won, when you've succeeded or when you haven't.
So the first thing about our goals, boom, specific.
The second thing, measurable.
We can see how we're tracking with them, we can see how close we are, how far away we
are, we make our goals measurable.
The third thing is attainable and attainable relates to the strategy that we have in place.
Is the strategy that we have in place for accomplishing our goal, is it a viable strategy?
So attainable, realistic.
Now realistic starts coming in here as well.
Realistic is, are we giving ourselves a realistic amount of time to accomplish this?
Are we giving ourselves a realistic amount of resources to accomplish this?
And the last part is timetable.
What is the date that we've set for our accomplishing our SMART goal?
So that's really the foundational thing of a review because a review is a time to reflect
on SMART goals and how we have gone in terms of our progress at attempting our SMART goals.
When it comes to review, sometimes you look at things and you realise, ha, I made it,
that's awesome, I got the business done.
Other times you look back at goals and you realise, oh actually, a number of things changed
on me that made that goal an impossibility.
Oh.
That's tricky. Let me read this for you. Is this goal, so remember you've got to keep
in mind through this review, you've got to keep in mind some of the key goals or
one key goal that you wanted to accomplish. So this next part of the
review says, is this goal still significant and important enough that
you want to try again? You know the activity that you're doing may have lost
its relevance for some reason but it also may not have, it might have gained
relevance and that could be a really really good incentive to to want to try
again. So let me read this again. Is this goal significant, still significant and
important enough that you want to try again? And I often get to different
seasons of my life and realize, okay well the goal that I set then, it was a good
goal, there wasn't anything wrong with that goal, it's just life has taken a bit
of a bit of a turn and that particular goal is no longer a priority. So it's not
it's off the urgent list and it's going to the side for now. Or I might get there
and go, flip this is so important, this is so critical and I haven't nailed it yet
but I have to nail it and I've got to nail it real real fast. And so in those
seasons I take the review and I go, okay the review is telling me I need to
hustle more. So boom, I go out and do that and hustle more. Here's a great
question for you as well. As you started this goal you should have also put it
through the motivator but can you ask yourself this question. Can you remember
why this goal was so important to you in the first place? Why was this goal so
important to you in the first place? It's very common that the process of going
after your goals will get very very difficult. So you've got to remember your
why. Let's just read this question out again. As we're going through the
review, can you remember why this goal was so important to you in the first
place? If you accomplished it, that's great. Just think about the
significance of it again. Wow, what was it that was significant? What was special?
What was priceless in this goal that you had going? Alright, so I just
want to repeat it to you one more time. Why was this goal so important to you in
the first place? One reason is sometimes in the process we lose perspective and
it's always good to go back to the drawing boards, back to your core values,
back to your why and answer yourself why, why, why, why did we do this in the first
place? Oh look, got double-sided action. Next question for you is what will you
do differently this time? This is one of the real values of a review process and
building this concept of a review process into your life is that you get
to learn a lot for free. You get to start learning off your own mistakes, off your
own issues. So in the process of setting your next goal, will
you do anything differently? Do you need to allow yourself more time? Did you
accomplish it within the time frame? Do you think you could go longer, shorter
amounts of time? Was there strategies that you tried that failed that you can
discover a new strategy? What can you learn from this process that you've been
through that you can do differently next time? Okay number 10. What is, if you
didn't fail right, so if you did not accomplish your goal yet, what is the
next best action that you can take towards completing this goal? What is the
next best action that you can take to completing this goal? So what was your
goal? Remember you want to have that, you want to have that on point. You want to
have that just in your mindset. You know like what was the goal that you're
working on as we go through this review? What was the goal that you had that
you're working on? If you didn't get it and you're still in the process of going
after it, I've got some goals that I achieved and some goals I didn't achieve.
I'm going to go back to the strategic planning on some of my goals. Other goals
I can just tick, they're already done. So what is...
What's the next best action that you can take towards completing this goal?
Okay, if you've failed, when we're getting up back again, we've got to go, okay, right,
what is the specific next best action that I can take that will help me to complete this
goal?
Very good.
All right, and then you want to say, you want to answer yourself, I'll tell you what I'll
do as well, is I'll put this template up in the group for you too, so you can just whiz
through this template, because it's really, really valuable, and you can learn so much,
you can get so much value out of doing a review on the way that you've done things, because
the review, it gives you information that can improve your system.
So if there is a next best step towards your goal, what will the next best step be?
All right, I just realized one of my pages was inside out, I didn't realize I had a double
sided page, so I did miss one, but ask yourself this question as well, did you fully complete
your SMART goal?
You know, when you started out, did you fully complete it?
Was the time frame that you allocated to this goal realistic, and can you identify
any reasons why we were not able to complete this goal?
Anytime we're going after something, review, review, review, review, review will make you
a genius, review will save you from making massive mistakes, critical mistakes, over
and over again, you can learn huge things for free by doing a review, and it could also
save your dream, okay, it could save your dream.
So next one briefly, what worked well in the process, okay, what worked well in the
process of accomplishing this goal, is there any part of the process that you can learn
from that will add value to your future, and yeah, there's a couple of things there.
So basically, that's the gist of what I want to say, but I want to just create a bit of
discussion around this now.
A bit of discussion that I want to create is, what worked really, really well for you
in this process of going after goals?
What was helpful?
What worked really well?
And I want to start conversation as well, especially over this next week, I want to
start conversation, what worked well for you?
Was there anything that you found in your life that helped you?
Was there like some planning of stages of the day when you did stuff?
Was there the sense of you're having, you're being a part of a team that's all working
on goals together, did that help?
Or what did you learn in the process that can be really, really valuable going forward?
You know, were there some mistakes that you felt, I made this mistake, I could change
that the next goal I'm going after, it would help me?
I see even just, even just see there, Dot's comments that she never wrote her goals out.
She successfully accomplished one goal, but she's still working on others, that's great.
So she's already made this adjustment, made this realization, and just talking about this,
that next time she wants, she needs to write it out.
So for you, what could you pull from this, you know, analyzing the last couple of months
in terms of how you did, what could you adjust, what could you improve, what could you implement,
what could you discard, let's hear it.
Can't wait just to have this conversation with you guys, and now I just want to chat
to you, before we wrap up, I just want to chat to you about a little bit of how my world
works on goals, and I shared some things with you as well.
A lot of people look at the way that I work, and they see my work ethic.
So for today, for example, alarm clock went off at 4.55, down to church as soon as I can,
and getting, just getting ready for the morning, I've, in those times, when I get up in the
early mornings, on a Sunday, I don't do any exercise, a Sunday's my day off, okay, so
a Sunday's my day off as far as my body goes, I give my body one rest day a week, other
than that, it's six days a week that I do something for exercise, but in the mornings,
when I get up early mornings, I come down, this is my office, I'm in here, I've spent
thousands of hours in here, and I might be praying in the spirit, or I might be creating,
that's one of the early mornings, it's like part of the journey with God, look I just
got this arrived in the mail this week, which I'm so happy about, this is the hardcover
version of the good father, my books, I'm really,
really happy with this it looks amazing the vibe on it is so cool it's gonna be
a brilliant coffee table book and I'm getting some of the I'm just gonna do
some work as well on I'm gonna do some work on the setting up systems for the
sales on it and I'm gonna be excited about that I'm gonna sorry about that
got a little interruption so for me my day everything's everything's planned
out okay the way that it works everything's planned usually ahead of
time I have I have like a system for my week of how I break down my week and I
put different things within those different days so I just thought I'd
give you a little insight into my world of how I break down my world to be able
to accomplish goals and tasks and to be able to maintain my disciplines so my
week Sunday is basically a day in the house of the Lord so today boom 455 my
alarm goes getting into it getting ready and I am I on a Sunday morning I do
intermittent fasting so I don't actually I don't have any food until 12 or after
on a Sunday using that's pretty standard for me and so I just get get up get rest
get ready get dressed come down here to church boom get in the glory and I know
I've got you know I'm gonna have two or three hours in that space two or three
hours in that space where it's time for me men the Lord or just journeying or
sometimes I'm getting my head around a message and then also writing so I'm
writing my next book at the moment I do my typing here on this computer here
most of the time unless I'm on the road and I'm writing back to Eden so
beautiful things coming out of the moment just loving I'm such a juicy
juicy part that I'm writing it's like oh this is beautiful so Sunday mornings I
do that and then I have prayer training at 8 o'clock these things are well
scheduled and then we have church which is awesome sometimes after church I get
a nap or Alana gets a nap today we had back-to-back parties which is cool so I
came back from that and then boom often I'll either be here with you guys for
a live at 4 o'clock or I'll be in my office creating again at 4 o'clock
working on templates working on you know just writing or creating something then
5 o'clock so very shortly we've got a leaders meeting and you know we get
things sorted for our evening service which our crew runs Mondays Mondays is
pretty much a family day I allocate Mondays for family days I sometimes get
asleep in or I work with I get a bit of I get a bit of rest on a on a Monday's
and also do family day so that's time when I'm doing things with the family
businesses so family business we've got two Airbnb houses going on here we've
got one Airbnb house permanently and our house is going on Airbnb which is cool
and then so so Mondays is kind of blocked out for family stuff I go I do
dates I do family dates on Monday so I take the kids out on dates I've got a
date with Zoe tomorrow we're gonna go and see some baby birds that's kind of
blocked out Tuesdays I have and Monday Monday evening as well I do soccer and
so Mondays lately I've been getting two workouts a workout in the morning and
then also soccer which is super fun and also soccer is a time where I reach out
and connect with a bunch of people in the community so I've been building
really strong relationships with these guys some of them are coming to church
and again connecting in with their families and I know their families and
their kids so that's scheduled it's like an outreach time then Tuesdays is
mainly a creative day of prayer training in the morning and like prayer and
creativity through mostly on a Tuesday sometimes some mentoring if I'm not
under the pump my main focus is creativity and prayer on a Tuesday we
have Tuesday nights we do meetings we kind of have a gathering and a meal
with our key people I do mentoring and family connection Wednesday Thursday is
hustling so Wednesday Thursday are my two big days on just going through the
to-do list smashing off the jobs whatever there is that I've got to get
on like done I'm like Wednesday Thursday are massive days for me in my world in
terms of getting things done ticking off the to-do list smash that stuff out so
there's early mornings and do some hustling and I try and get home at a
good hour so that I got balanced there with the family and the kids and looking
after Alana and also hope to try and get some early nights those days Friday is
all action so Friday's an early morning again usually about usually just before
five o'clock 455 would be a classic alarm on a Friday morning so boom get up
work out get down to church boom so just a short work
I work out on a Friday, so I want to get down here as soon as possible.
And then I have my Sonship students for the whole day on Friday, so we do all sorts of
things.
We do lots of glory, we do training, we do connection, kingdom building, community, all
sorts of stuff that happens in the training in the Sonship program.
And Friday nights is a family night, so we have a movie with the kids, we have a pizza
night, we have a couple of families that we journey with closely, and we also sometimes
invite other families from towns to kind of join that and connect and just kind of expand
the kingdom by just drawing these people and connecting with them.
Saturdays, again, it's another family day where we're doing stuff for the family.
So I just thought I'd give you a little bit of an insight into my world.
Basically everything in my world is planned out, there's not really, it'll be unusual
in my world if there's even two hours that aren't being used intentionally.
Even if I'm taking a rest, the rest is intentional.
So this is, I guess, what I just want to finish with today, is just encouraging you
on two things, one on intentionality and the second on balance.
And one of the ways that you can really bring the balance into your world is being really,
really, really intentional.
And I think with being in the process of doing reviews on a regular basis, what you're going
to discover is that life must be intentional, you're going to have to get very, very intentional
about scheduling things, about putting things down for two reasons.
You've got to be intentional so that you can actually get things done, you've got to be
intentional so that you can maintain the balance.
We don't want to get way off, way lopsided on one area of our life, we want to focus
on balance.
And when you go through a review process, that's one of the things you can often find
is, okay, I've got this goal but it cost me too much in this other area of my life,
I had to sacrifice a relationship with my family and it really cost me in order to accomplish
this goal.
So when you're going after your goals, when you're doing those things, I think if you've
been doing it for a while, you learn that you have to maintain balance in every area
at the same time.
So you want to be hustling, absolutely, but you want to be hustling with intentionality
and with balance as you go forward.
And if you do that, intentionality and balance, if you do that, you're going to have, you
can, with intentionality and with balance, what you can do is you can just slowly start
ticking the boxes in every area of your life.
And so that might mean that you're a little bit slower, right, you're a little bit slower
on takeoff, but you'll build really, really good momentum if you focus on those seven
areas of life that I get people focusing on.
Focus on those seven areas of life and be intentional about structuring a world that
incorporates looking after every area of those seven areas.
So there's family, faith, fitness, finances, fun, fellowship, and future.
Be really, really intentional about your scheduling and be really, really intentional about your
balance.
Love you guys.
Let's share what worked.
Let's share what didn't work.
Loving you heaps.
And also, why don't you share what your next goal is, what some of the next things that
you want to accomplish, what worked, what didn't work, what are some of the next things
that you're going to work on.
Love you.
Have a great afternoon and look forward to hearing more lives about your review, about
what you were accomplishing and your goals, and looking forward to hearing, again, those
three things, what went well, what didn't go so well, and what are you going to go after
in the future.
Love you.
And together, we will transform nations.
See ya.
