I had dinner with friends last night. We were talking about Stay on Target Coach and the benefits. My friend made an interesting observation about her current situation. 
She said ‘I am so angry with myself for being in this predicament; I am unable to move forward and change.’
A few days ago, I wrote about change. In that post I talked about how changes do not have to be life altering. Small bumps in the road do not have to derail our train. However, what do you do when the small bump has derailed your train? What if the train has been off the track so long that the anger and frustration has created an environment of inaction?
Unfortunately, as humans we want a quick fix. We want to see results yesterday. However, wherever you are did not start yesterday, and the time and energy spent looking back is unproductive. For my friend, her anger is impotent because it lacks a motivating quality.
Just as a small change does not have to derail your train, a small change can 
move you toward a goal. If you made a commitment to just give 1% more effort toward your goal each week.
ONE Percent! There are 10,080 minutes in a week. If you assume that, you sleep 8 hours each day that is 6720 waking minutes. One percent of that is 67.2 minutes or roughly 16 minutes per day.
Can you make a one percent change to accomplish your goal? I challenge you to start today!
