For those who dream up more goals than they accomplish! Here are some
helpful tips certain to deliver more success when it comes to accomplishing
your goals.
|
Take Time |
|
Take 30 minutes to sit down and write - 'what' you want and 'why' you
want! The more time you invest in this simple task the greater your return
of success! These are your goals. |
Make Your Goals Smart |
Make sure your goals are Specific, Measurable, Achieveable, Realistic
& Time-based. SMART goals are milestones to the stars in your life. |
Tell Someone You Trust |
Tell someone who cares about your success and will support you. If this
person doesn't exist in your life...get a mentor. This person is your
cheerleader with a ringside seat! |
Mark your Deadline |
A firm deadline is a smart deadline. It heightens your focus, motivation,
and commitment to getting the work done now (as versus never). So make
sure to record the deadline in your PDA. |
|
|
Review It |
|
Make this deal with yourself: If you don't accomplish the goal by your
stated deadline...review the goal. Break your goal into a 'two stage'
goal. You can focus your energy better and achieve two successes! |
Affirm
it! |
Affirmations work! They shift your perspective and expand your 'possibility
thinking.' Create one that feels absolutely incredible to say out loud
as often as you need to. |
Track It |
Daily or weekly, track every action you've taken towards your goal.
This is a no-fail approach to knowing what's working, what isn't and
what's left to do. It ensures you remain on course. |
Take One-A-Day |
Take an action (however big or small) every single day that supports
your goal -- until you reach it! Never give up! |
Try, Try, Try... |
Try every idea, hunch and 'what if.' You'll always get something for
something.....but rarely something from nothing. |
Reward |
Each time you achieve a goal, reward yourself - no matter how small.
Even a candy bar counts as a reward! It is symbolic gesture of satisfaction
with your achievement. It will motivate you to your next star. |
Give Yourself Permission |
There is power in permission! Give yourself permission to take a break,
to over-succeed, or whatever else you want. Permission liberates, energises,
inspires and empowers. You can give yourself permission to reach for
the stars! |
