The first Chamber Chat of 2010 was held on 3rd February 2010 at the Burlington Hotel on Worthing Seafront and attended by around 40 members and guests all keen to get a grip on their goals for the next year.

The free workshop from Paul Trew of Northbrook College provide us with the time to set our goals and the networking was focused on everyone asking their specific question of how others could help us achieve our goals.
The conversation was intense and very productive with surprising support from the other attendees.

The hot buffet was a welcome distraction along with some well-needed refreshment. It was universally agreed that all round it was a great evening.



PAUL'S 7 TOP TIPS FOR GOAL SETTING AND ACHIEVEMENT

• Make sure your Goal is SMART - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time bound.
• Challenge your “Reason Why” you want to achieve the goal. Just how much do you want it, on a scale of 1-10?
• How achievable do you believe your goal to be, on a scale of 1-10?
• Think “Possibilities”. Then prioritise those you believe will help you achieve your goal, and plan in the time to action them.
• Involve other people. Think “who could possibly help me achieve this goal?” then ask them to help you.
• Take Personal Responsibility for your goal. Don’t blame others for your lack of action or achievement.
• Take action NOW!
