REALITY CHECK #39 - 7 TIPS 6 AREAS ON GOAL SETTING

At the retreat I attended some days to the end of the year, a very effective retreat that I was in dire need of, I made a few notes from the notes made on goal setting.

We can’t say we want to reach our targets without having a plan WRITTEN down. That doesn’t work. So you need to write down your goals, this can’t be overemphasized.

TIPS TO SETTING GOALS

ü  They must be achievable, realistic goals

ü  They must be believable by most especially you

ü  They must be definite that is specific; nothing becomes dynamic until it becomes specific.

ü  Decide on a deadline, timelines are guidelines

ü  Write them down. Again, it cannot be overemphasized

ü  Develop a plan to achieve your goal

ü  Determine what you would give in exchange, like some reward system.

AREAS YOU MIGHT WANT TO SET GOALS

ü  Career or mental goals, having to do with skill most especially

ü  Health goals

ü  Spiritual life goals

ü  Financial goals

ü  Family / Social goals

ü  Behavioural goals

This is just to mention a few…you aren’t clear on exactly how you can do this or go about implementing, you can ask questions in the comment box.

Happy 2014!

Live, Learn, Love.
