Accomplishing Any Goal is just 5 Easy Steps away:
1. Establish a definite date
Set your goals in reverse. Pick a date of completion and work backwards. Ex. Set a goal for the end of the month and then set short term goals for each day through the end of the month. This way, you are setting short and long term goals and each day, as you accomplish your short term goals, you move one step closer to accomplishing your long term goal. Don’t forget to include personal development goals and days off.
2. Keep a calendar
Take the goal you set for the end of the month and write that goal on the last day of the month. Then write down the short term goals for each day through the end of the month.
3. One at a time
Don’t try to cram everything into one day. If you try to post to your blogs, post to the forums, post classified ads, participate in groups, submit articles and work on your Squidoo lenses, etc., all in one day, you’ll burn yourself out. Instead, focus on one or two things every day and then cross it off. Mark an ‘X’ on the calendar on the days you complete the scheduled tasks.
4. Set a time limit
Aim for one to two hours per day. By limiting the time you are spending and focusing on one or two tasks every day, you’ll build momentum and increase your success rate.
5. Stick with it
Stick with your schedule. Switching things up too often can get in the way of your success.
Conclusion
With a written plan, you’ll make accomplishing your goals easier. At the end of the month, when you see more ‘X’s than empty squares, you’ll feel more accomplished. By implementing the 5 Easy Steps to Accomplishing Any Goal, you’ll find yourself making progress, building self-confidence and reaching and accomplishing your long term goals.
