Check your calendar. It’s June already – midyear is here! Time has this crazy flexible nature when going through change in your life, career or relationships.

Back in December, we worked together to build your 2014 vision, plans and goals. Now it’s time to check back in with them to ensure you’re on track or if not, what needs to shift.

Dig out your worksheets, print out some new planner sheets and schedule yourself a few hours to invest in your stretch this week. (Can’t find the planners – look no further: monthly, weekly and daily or if you joined b-mails in 2014, don’t despair! Download the improved workbook here.)

Start back at the beginning: what are you seeking to change? Jot that down or draw a vivid picture. Pop this in front of you to keep it at the front of your mind as you complete your update.

Worksheet 1 was Review 2013 (now Chapter 1 Review your last 12 months). Refresh your memory on your reflections – the highs and lows. Repeat the exercises again for January to June – how have things moved and adapted?

Number 2 was Decode 2013 (now Chapter 2 Decode your year). What insights did you get about yourself, what is really important to you and the gaps you want to close? Looking at the last 6 months, have these changed or do you have more to inform your goals.

The third, Prioritise 2013 (now Chapter 3 Prioritise your goals) asked you to create real clarity of vision and future success on your terms. You related each prioritised goal to your values and beliefs. Do these definitions and associated values and beliefs still hold true? Having got 6 months into your change, do you want or need to amend them?

Our last worksheet was Activate 2014 (now Chapter 4 Activate your next steps) came with the 3 planners. You broke down your goals into manageable steps, identified and mitigated any potential risks before scheduling in your steps in your planners and developing your own mantras and life rules to help motivate you to your future! Have you stuck to your plans? Have the mantras and life rules supported you in the good and the bad times?

I’m here cheering you on whatever you are seeking to do, change or become. I’m 100% positive you can do it. Need something extra from me to get you there – you just need to reach out. Here in the comments. Over on Twitter or Facebook. Jump over to my  Get in touch page and write me a message. Buy a set of coaching sessions. Attend b-more and work with me and a group of likeminded peers. You can do it!

Use the comments to share and celebrate how far you’ve come in the last 6 months. I’m looking forward to some serious whooping and cheering!! 🙂

Have you got a big project or task on your to-do list right now? And probably an ongoing niggle to resolve. And you need find someone to delegate out your not-so-great-at stuff or provide you with some expert guidance. And you need refuelling – a coffee, Earl Grey tea or green smoothie. Plus it would be good to get a bit of fresh air and movement to your day.

Where are you working? Your sofa? Corner of your spare room? Kitchen table? Or your local free wifi pub or cafe? These are all great options, however every now and again, you need to add a bit of variety! I want to explain why I think you should be coworking.

You’ll be networking without any effort, no pretence, no hard selling tactics – just building great relationships with people like us. People with personal and professional ambitions AND a genuine desire to see others succeed alongside them. Let me tell you why b-more’s growing community will deliver you solutions, energy and joy.

A source of inspiration

Need new ideas on how to tackle an issue? Ask a b-more attendee.

Need a different perspective to understand how others do something? Ask a b-more attendee.

Need to learn a skill or piece of knowledge? Ask a b-more attendee.

At b-more, we include a short Q&A session when you can ask for help, guidance and support.

Calling for collaboration

Whether you need an extra pair of hands in your business, a peer’s insight to help you build a product, service or deliverable or simply a sounding board, you’ll find them through coworking.

Formal collaborations might include joint ventures, becoming an associate or employing someone directly. This gives you access to fresh content, fresh options and potentially more time to focus elsewhere.

Informal collaboration could be a chance to pick the brain of someone else on that niggling concern, asking to rehearse a key conversation or getting an independent point of view on something you’re too close to see straight anymore!

At b-more, you can use the short “show and tell” session to voice your request to find the right person in the room or get connected to an absent friend.

Broaden your horizons

Working in isolation, you can have a lightbulb moment of a new possibility but it’s also easy to get a little doubtful that you’re heading the right way. Either way, your head ends up spinning on the same few thoughts and the fog thickens. The relationships you build at b-more will provide you with safe, trusted advice and motivation to help pin down your next step.

Add to that additional PR, as your b-more peers share your new line or product. You’ll find yourself connected to a wider pool of potential customers and new revenue streams.

What are you waiting for?  Join us at b-more and be part of a supportive, energetic group who want you to be successful! Meet-ups are usually about 5-6 hours long, with 2 short breaks to shift our eye’s focus off the screens and onto “show and tell” or Q&A, plus a social celebration of being together, our successes and our efforts!

The next b-more meet-up is on Tuesday 10th June at Timberyard, near the Seven Dials and Covent Garden. Reserve your seat here: http://www.b-elastic.com/home/b-more-coworking/

Can’t make that date, but want to hear about the next one? Sign up in the sidebar box on the same page 🙂
