- Reflect on your goals: Review the goals you set at the beginning of the year. Assess your progress and identify which goals you've achieved, which ones are in progress, and any that you haven't started yet.
- Celebrate your achievements: Take time to acknowledge and celebrate your accomplishments so far. Recognize the effort you've put in and the milestones you've reached. This will boost your motivation for the rest of the year.
- Assess your current situation: Evaluate where you stand at the halfway point. Consider factors such as your personal life, work, health, and relationships. Determine if anything has changed or if new opportunities have arisen.
- Review and adjust your goals: Based on your assessment, consider if your original goals are still relevant and realistic. Are there any goals you need to modify, add, or remove? Make adjustments that align with your current circumstances and aspirations.
- Break down your goals: Divide your revised goals into smaller, actionable steps. This will make them more manageable and increase your chances of success. Set deadlines for each step to create a sense of urgency.
- Create a plan: Develop a clear plan outlining the actions you need to take to achieve your revised goals. Prioritize your tasks and allocate time for each of them. Consider using productivity tools or techniques like time blocking or creating to-do lists.
- Seek support: If you need assistance or collaboration to achieve your goals, reach out to others. Seek guidance from mentors, collaborate with peers, or delegate tasks when necessary. Surrounding yourself with a supportive network can provide motivation and valuable insights.
- Track your progress: Regularly monitor your progress towards your goals. Set milestones along the way and evaluate your achievements. This will help you stay accountable and make adjustments if needed.
- Stay motivated: Motivation can wane over time, so find ways to stay inspired. Set reminders of your goals, create a vision board, or find an accountability partner. Celebrate small victories and remind yourself of the benefits and rewards awaiting you at the end.
- Practice self-care: As you work towards your goals, don't forget to take care of yourself. Prioritize your physical and mental well-being by getting enough rest, eating nutritious food, exercising, and practicing self-reflection or mindfulness. Taking care of yourself will enhance your productivity and overall happiness.
Approaching the halfway point of the year is a great opportunity to reflect on your progress and make adjustments to ensure you achieve your goals. Here's a step-by-step approach to help you:

We advise you to talk with one of the contact at the bottom of this Matching Ideas with Resources Blog. Typical Situation: Our client is looking to expand their business or perhaps make a business acquisition. They might be looking to purchase equipment, inventory, or real estate. Maybe they also need working capital to expand. We are primarily looking to lend to businesses in underserved areas to create quality jobs When you hear a business owner say: • “I would like to expand but I my bank won’t lend the full amount I need” • “I just got declined for a loan from my bank to buy R/E, equipment, inventory, working capital” • “I want to buy out my partner (or purchase a business) but can’t get financing” • “My bank approved the equipment loan but they only gave me a 24 month term, I’m afraid of a payment that large.” SBA (Small Business Administration) Bankers serve as a trusted banking solution. They Make $1MM-$5MM loans to small businesses. How they Work: They use Government loan programs, to businesses that meet SBA guidelines. They are able to do this by treating the building acquisition as simply an extension of their existing business, rather than a new acquisition.
