In this episode of the Christian Business Advantage Podcast, I continue my conversation with my friend and accountability partner, Trisha. Together, we explore the significance of having an accountability partner in business and how it strengthens focus and commitment. We dive into the 12-week year concept, sharing how it has helped them set and track goals, stay motivated, and maintain balance in their busy lives. Tune in to learn how accountability can drive success and foster encouragement without competition!

In this episode of the Christian Business Advantage Podcast, my accountability partner, Trisha and I continue their discussion on implementing the "12 Week Year" method to achieve business and personal goals. We focus on creating an effective weekly plan that involves setting daily and weekly tasks. We share their unique approaches to planning and tracking progress—I prefer using a Passion Planner while Trisha utilizes a combination of digital tools and printed checklists. We emphasize the importance of tracking and scoring their progress weekly to stay motivated, make necessary adjustments, and maintain accountability. By using these strategies, we demonstrate how consistent small steps can lead to significant progress. Next week, we'll discuss the value of having an accountability partner and what to look for in one to help stay focused on your goals.

In this special series for September, we're shaking things up on the podcast! I'm thrilled to have a guest with me for the entire month, my long-time friend and accountability partner, Trisha Cordes. Today, we're diving into one of my favorite productivity tools, "The 12 Week Year" by Brian P. Moran—a book that has revolutionized how we set and achieve goals in our lives and businesses.

Trisha and I met in 2016 when she became an intern for my virtual assistant business, and we've been using the "12 Week Year" system together ever since. In this episode, we'll break down the core principles of the "12 Week Year," which focuses on setting goals in 12-week increments rather than annually, creating a sense of urgency and encouraging consistent action. We'll share how we both implement this system in our businesses and personal lives, the importance of setting focused and attainable goals, and how it has helped us stay on track without procrastination.

Join us as we discuss practical tips for goal setting, balancing personal and professional aspirations, and using shorter planning cycles to achieve more in less time. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just looking for a fresh way to organize your life, this episode will provide valuable insights to help you reach your goals faster and more efficiently.
