How to set and accomplish goals
- Evaluate your situation
The first step to set and accomplish goals is to reflect on your past and present situation. While many people skip this step, it's crucial in order to determine what you wish to improve on and achieve.
- Make it smarter
Your goals need to be:
S - specific
M - measurable
A - attainable
R - relevant
T - time-bound
E - evaluative
R - revisable
- Write it down
Write down your goals to clarify and strengthen your intentions.
- Break it down
Break down your goals into small and manageable steps to overcome overwhelm.
- Hold yourself accountable
Since these are your goals, no one else can accomplish them for you so it's up to you to remain focused and disciplined.
- Reward yourself
Having a reward system is beneficial in at least two aspects: first, you recognize that you did a good job (past) and second, you set yourself up to accomplish more since you know you’ll be getting a reward afterwards (future).
