What are your goals?
Do you have a weight loss goal?
Do you have education goals?
Do you have financial goals?
No matter the goal, they all have one thing in common and that is
planning. Any plan is more likely
to be achievable if you set SMART goals.
Specific
Be specific about your goals. They should challenge you. However, they should also be within your reach. What exactly do you want to have
happen?
Measurable
Choose goals that have results you can measure. Give yourself a deadline, such as a
week, a month, or 6 months from now.
Achievable
Is your goal something you can achieve? You do not want to discourage
yourself. Keep in mind that you
can always raise the bar after you have reached your first goals.
Rewarding
How will you reward yourself along the way? Give yourself health rewards when you
pass each milestone, as well as, when you meet our main goal
Track-able
How will you track your progress? Doing so helps you to see
how far you have come. It also shows
any slip as just a brief setback that you can get past.
Set yourself up for success by using SMART to set realistic
and achievable goals!
This post is incredible. So many times I make these wild unattainable goals and then beat myself up when I don't get them accomplished. More people should read this, and save themselves some major heartbreak and self-loathing.
