Ben Roethlisberger and Aaron Rodgers will be getting the headlines over the next week. They planned and trained for years for this one moment as more than 100 million people in America alone will be tuned in to Super Bowl XLV.
As an advisor, what are you doing to prepare yourself for big-game success? Do you have a plan in place to help you achieve your goals, to help you reach your own Super Bowl?
Over the last few weeks, I've been reading Brian Tracy's excellent book, "Flight Plan: The Real Secret of Success." And if there's one thing that's perfectly clear, it doesn't matter if you're a professional football player or a topnotch advisor; you need to prepare if you want to succeed.
As Tracy writes: "To achieve greatly, you need clear goals, plans, and schedules to get from wherever you are today to wherever you want to be in the future. You need a flight plan that you file before you begin and that you use to guide you on your journey."
