Goals are killer. I wish I would have started setting them earlier in life. I guess it takes time.
A few things that I have learned about goals…
–Always have them visible. If they aren’t around, they aren’t being attended to. I used to keep mine on my mirror in my bathroom. Now they are in the front pocket of my notebooks and on my walls at work.
–They have to have a solid measure. I couldn’t say, "Hang out with Jessica more." That’s too open. Now, "Have one date night a week." That’s a measurable goal.
–Don’t set them too high. I’ve set wild goals that I never could have hit, then just gave up thinking, "this won’t happen." When they are attainable, you get the feeling of accomplishment when they achieved.
and the most fun part……
REWARD yourself for hitting the Goal….ummm ehh DUH.
We hit our revenue goal for last year.
This Wednesday I am heading out west to celebrate by snowboarding for a week. That is my reward. A week snowboarding out west.
