1. Be decisive. Know exactly what you want, why you want it, and how you plan to achieve it.
2. Stay focussed. Any goal requires sustained focus from beginning to end. Constantly evaluate your progress.
3. Welcome failure. Frequently, very little is learned from a venture that did not experience failure in some form. Failure presents the opportunity to learn and makes the success more worthy.
4. Write down your goals. It clarifies your thinking and reinforces your commitment.
5. Keep your goals in sight. Review them frequently, and ensure that they are always at the forefront of your thinking.
Realize that the list itself is an intermediate term goal. This means you should pace yourself carefully through this list. Work on things as they seem appropriate, but don’t lose sight of the overall goal of finishing the list.
Realize that such a list will be composed of challenging microgoals, short term goals, and medium term goals, and use that perspective appropriately. Different goals on your list may have different timeframes, different amounts of effort, and so forth. Don’t let the challenge of one goal make you think that they’re all unachievable.
Keep tabs on it. It’s easy to make a list like this and forget about it. Don’t. Keep it in mind and keep making updates to it marking your progress. It will make you realize that you really do accomplish things.
I dont even quite know where i would begin or what my goals would be! Time to start a new word doc on my desktop....i guess this will go along with my "Top things not to do" list....lol!
