Key Takeaways:

[2:12] Thank you for all your support in this podcast in 2018; we are growing big in 2019! We are the top podcast in the business of child care, and it’s because of your support and sharing. This year was fantastic for the Child Care Success Academy. We grew by 45%, and are now strong with 140 motivated and successful members.

[5:55] Many of us have weight loss and fitness goals but fail to stick with them or we have no clue where to begin. One way to build in accountability is to join a tribe or mastermind with a community that will support you and help you keep on track. For Kris, 2019 is going to be about fitness, both physically and financially.

[14:20] Acti0n Item: Write out five to six goals you want to achieve that are specific, time-bound, measurable, attainable, and somewhat realistic.

[17:53] What are you leaving behind in 2019 that doesn’t serve your highest calling? Negative self-talk, mindset patterns, toxic relationships — all can be left behind in the new year to make a path toward moving forward.

[19:38] By Jan 15, 75% of people abandon their resolutions. Writing down your dreams and resolutions is the difference between people making progress in their lives, and those sitting idly on the sidelines.

[28:13] A simple piece of paper with three columns: Goal, Why/Motivation, and Progress is an inexpensive and efficient way to begin.

[29:10] When we read the statement as though it happens, our brain tells our body that this is possible.
