This has been a challenging year. Between financial stress, job instability, and upending lifestyles – home schooling, Zoom fatigue – 2020 can’t be in the rearview mirror soon enough.
So, why wait for January? Instead, let’s add a month to 2021. Our New Year starts December 1st.
Plan to #Start2021Now!
Here’s the thing: To get what you want, you need to know what you want! People tend to overthink or under-think their goals … they do not make a plan.
My goal is to help everyone start 2021 on the right foot.
Your Goal Guide is the best first step. The book takes readers through my brainstorming and task-based system in order to set achievable goals and make a plan. The second part of Your Goal Guide helps readers set themselves – and their goals – up for success,. It works whether they want to start or build a business, change jobs or careers, become a known expert, or achieve work-life balance.
Your Goal Guide is an easy read with a fun road trip theme. It includes worksheets, resources, and even a Facebook group, where you can share your journey and get additional support. It’s available from your favorite bookstore, as well as on Amazon in paperback, ebook, and audiobook format.
Declare your commitment:
I have also set up a variety of goal-setting events over the next two months. This includes Workshops, Twitter chats, Facebook Lives, and a Facebook Live New Year’s party on December 1! And keep an eye on my blog for tips, tricks, and motivation!

“What an engaging speaker and a beautiful soul. I learned so much from your speech about goal setting and The D*E*B Method! Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with all of us at the International Association of Career Coaches!”
Debra Eckerling came highly recommended to me when I was looking for speakers for my virtual summit. She was an absolutely fabulous speaker, a wealth of information and so accessible. It’s always a pleasure to be in her company. I highly recommend working with Debra.
Debra Eckerling has been a terrific speaker for both The Greater Los Angeles Writers Society (GLAWS) and West Coast Writers Conferences (WC2). She is a professional presenter delivering on-target information for our attendees, and is also a great moderator. 
I’ve worked with Debra at print and online publications for over a dozen years. And as a professional editor (and writer, and producer, and editor) I am skeptical of self-proclaimed “experts” — especially those offering advice about creative endeavors — but Deb’s insights have helped me immensely. She knows what works.
Her book 
I really enjoy listening to these conversations. Not only does Deb bring really insightful people to the table, but the topics are much less in the weeds of how-to business stuff and more inspirational and motivational to bring bigger ideas to the table. And she does that while still being very business oriented. The productivity elements are outstanding, too. Just a good all-around listen for multiple reasons.
I recommend Deb as a goal coach if you want to get your book out for the world to enjoy! Within the first hour of working with me and my writing partner, Debra brought awareness and focus on our project’s strengths. We also realized areas where our visions of the book were vastly different. These conversations were important to get us off on the right foot.
Debra pushed us from merely discussing the book to actually writing the first chapter within days of our conversation.
I hired Debra to help me organize my creative projects, not only did she deliver on that, but she provided me with the structure and goals that enabled me get a project launched from an idea to the web in less than 3 months.
Awesome personality, holds you to task and offers great creative advice and insight. I highly recommend Deb’s services to any one looking to further their creative or professional career!
Debra’s been a huge help, not only in improving my writing but in having confidence as a writer. She’s easy to work with, is great about setting goals and works at my pace without allowing me to become complacent.
I would highly recommend her services to anyone who wants to work on their skills as a writer.
Thanks to Debra Eckerling for speaking to the Los Angeles County Bar Association’s Lawyer Well-Being Project event about goal-setting simplified. Debra shared a wealth of great practical tips and how-to’s. Immediately after the program, I started taking action on my goals, which are materializing!
Debra helped me jump start a complex side-project website that was on the back-burner for about six months. I’m highly motivated, but was too busy working on client projects and other existing businesses to get yet another side project going. Within a few weeks of in-person meetings and email exchanges, I had a solid plan. Within a month the project was live and in production. If you need help getting a project moving, I highly recommend getting help from Debra.
