Everyone has goals that they want to achieve and dreams that they want to come true! In this blog post I will share my tips on how to achieve your goals no matter what you are working on!
Write down your goal!
Sounds very simple and many people may this that this step is completely unnecessary but I truly believe that it is a must! And here is why: when you write your goal down it becomes more visual for you, you know what exactly you are working on and you do not jump to another goal and forgetting this one.
Break down steps to achieve your goal!
It can be easy step-by-step form where you list all things that you need to do to achieve your goal. Write down what you have to do and how to do it. For example, if your goal is to be more healthy and lose weight, list products that should be eating and you should stay away from, how often should you exercise, what type of activities should you do, etc. This will keep you stay focus on achieving your goal.
Celebrate your success!
It doesn't matter if it is just a one little step that you achieved on a long road to sucess, you need to give yourself time to be proud of yourself and celebrate every steps on achieving your goal.
Stay focused and motivated!
I think this one is the hardest to do! You know your goal, you follow all steps and and you still feel that it is a long road to come. But it is ok! You can DO IT! You need to believe in yourself! You are capable of so many amazing things! You truly can achieve anything you want if you work hard and stay focused!
Stop comparing yourself with others! Everyone will shine on their own time!
This is a biggest one! If you start compare yourself with others, you can become so demotivated, you will lose focus and waste precious time on asking yourself "Why them and not me?" instead on focusing on steps to achieve your goal. Do not go this dead road! I truly believe that everyone will shine in their own time! Do not rush the process! enjoy it!
Rearrange your tactics!
If you see that the way that you are achieving your goal is not working, stop for a second, rethink, rearrange and change your tactics. Nowadays, everything is so fast changing! You need to be able to adapt, change and move forward!
Realize the time we are living in! Use Social Media!
No matter what your goal is, social media can help you so much! You can promote your business, find people with same goals and interests, find blog posts to read or videos to watch for more information and inspiration! Possibilities are endless. You just need to know how to use it correctly and stay focused as you can simply get lost within all those beautiful pictures and video.
Do not waste time! Do everything in moderation!
Sometimes we say to ourselves, "I will do it tomorrow", "I am so tired, I will watch a movie and then do this" and I can continue with all excused that we lie to ourselves! Stop! I really mean, stop right now! One thing if you are really exhausted and another if you just being lazy. For example, I noticed that coming home after work and start my exercising right away, makes me do it regularly and you actually feel more energy after you exercise!
Do not forget to rest!
If you are a hard-working person, as I am, and you are using every second you have, you may simply forget to rest. And it is not good! Some days I just work non-stop (especially considering that I am working full-time, have a little daughter and also a wife, love to cook myself, managing blog, Instagram, making YouTube videos), and completely forget that 4-5 hours of sleep is not enough! Set yourself an alarm not only when you need to get up but also when you need to go to sleep! And remember, if you are exhausted, you are less motivated and focused and more likely to do mistakes.
Make a schedule!
Having a schedule will make your life so easily! Buy yourself a planner or use calendar on your phone. Write down what and when to do, schedule important meetings, stay organized and focused.
And remember, there is no small goals or dreams! Yes, some may take you longer but it will be so satisfying when you achieve it!
So, happy goal setting! I hope road on achieve it will be enjoyable and I wish everyone to succeed!
Have a beautiful day,
Anna
