In Ask Coach Tony, you can put my Operation Melt coaching to the test by asking me questions about how to achieve your goals.
Because a question asked by one is often a question had by many, I am regularly sharing these answers via the Operation Melt blog.
Are you ready for a dad joke?
I offer you this "dad joke" as a light "amuse-bouche" to entertain your mind before we get serious. My dad joke may be groan-worthy, but it's worth every penny you paid for it, right?
As I get older, I remember all the people I lost along the way. Maybe it's time to rethink my job as a tour guide.
Ready To Be Happy In 2025? Here’s Some Help To Think Big
Two years ago, I embarked on a journey.
After many years of sharing my story, perspectives and techniques in the Operation Melt blog, it was time to mix things up a little. My goal was to make my blog an even more essential goal-success resource. I wanted to share stories of how other people, not just me, were making their dreams come true through goals.
Moreover, I especially wanted to share how these goal success stories modeled the six Project Manage Your Life strategies that are the basis for my coaching:
- Commit to SMART goals
- Build a plan that works for you
- Measure progress every day
- Expect and plan ahead for problems
- Don’t go it alone
- Enjoy the journey
That’s when I launched my Interview with a Goal-Crusher blog feature. In these interviews, I sit down with someone accomplishing big things by setting and achieving their goals to learn their secrets. Then I share those secrets with you. It’s like free mentoring from someone already on the road to success.
Since launching Interview with a Goal-Crusher, I have spoken to twenty-four goal-crushers and shared their stories. Each goal-crusher had a uniquely meaningful goal, including:
- Starting new businesses or changing jobs
- Participating in physical challenges
- Advocating for themselves and their families
- Pursuing personal development while balancing other responsibilities
- Helping other people live their best lives
- Navigating personal loss and setback
I have found every one of these stories to be inspirational and motivating to me. While there are some common themes throughout each interview, the diversity of goals, personalities and strategies demonstrates the universal power and importance of goals in our lives.
5… 4… 3… 2… 1… Happy New Goals!
Have you created your goals for 2025?
With just a few days remaining this year, 2025 is rapidly approaching. This means many of us are working to finalize our goals and plan for 2025. As you commit to your goals for the new year, I want to remind you of a core theme embedded in every interview.
You can be a goal-crusher… if you commit to a meaningful goal and apply a few practical strategies, you can accomplish anything. Think big, don’t sell yourself short and then take one step at a time to make your dreams come true.
There is nothing you can’t do!
Goal-Crushers Take the Wheel!
To help you think big and believe in yourself, I am starting 2025 a little differently.
It’s a goal-crusher takeover!
Throughout January, every week, a different goal-crusher will be featured in the Operation Melt blog. Some will be new stories I am sharing for the first time. I will also re-publish some of my favorite interviews from the past two years, particularly those that may help you think big in 2025.
I hope these stories of goal success will inspire you to give life to that goal buried deep inside you. A little courage to try could make the difference between living your best life and letting a goal die of loneliness inside you.
This goal-crusher takeover is going to be fun!
Are you inspired to pursue that big goal but don’t know where to start? Do you want a partner to help you convert your dream into a plan? Would it help to have a cheerleader in your corner rooting for you? These are just a few of the things I can help you with as your coach. I would be honored to be your partner. Let’s chat!
I believe in you; let me help YOU believe in you!
Meet Coach Tony
My name is Coach Tony, and I am a coach, author and project manager on a mission. I am working to build a world where no goal ever dies of loneliness.
I almost allowed one of my biggest life goals to die without ever being attempted for forty years. My goal almost died, not of failure but of loneliness. But, I took a risk and leveraged a simple, logical process that helped me wildly exceed my goal.
I transformed my life, and you can do the same with the help of Operation Melt.
Operation Melt provides engaging, practical content and hands-on coaching to inspire, motivate and equip project managers and other left-brained high-achievers to pursue and accomplish their biggest goals.
