Happy New Year to all out there.
It’s that time of the year again when we all set goals or resolutions to accomplish something new this year. If you find yourself setting the same goals year after year without seeing any changes to those specific areas, maybe it’s time to re-evaluate the way you are setting your goals.
I find it most effective when I set goals that follow a certain criteria.
First I always visualize what it is that I want in life. If you see your self there, for example fitting in those old pair of jeans or making that extra amount of cash it is more likely that you will achieve your goal. I do this and then I follow the S.M.A.R.T Method of goal setting. Which is a very effective way to set and achieve goals. S.M.A.R.T Stands for
S- Specific - Goals that are targeted.
M- Measurable - Always have a unit of measure (almost always numerical)
A- Action (Action oriented, and Attainable / Assertive)
R- Relevant - To your Mission / values and Industry
T- Timed/Timely or in a specific time frame. Respond with in a time frame.
For Example - lose 10 pounds in a month by eating 1,000 calories less and exercising at least 30 minutes a day.
Third thing I do is I always am thankful for the progress that I have made.
I know that if you give this a try you will see the greatest results. I challenge you all to Make some SMART goals and see just how much you can achieve in life.
I would like to hear your progress and abot your successes in life especially if you are using this method. Please feel free to share any comments with the quitterbox community.
GOOD LUCK!!
