Welcome to Spark an Idea Thursday. Each week we’ll be sharing some great ideas for a topic of interest to our readers. We invite you to grab our image and carry the tradition through to your own blog! If you do, please link back to this post so we know where you were inspired! Spark an Idea About Goal Setting.
Whether it’s personal or professional, we all have goals. And I’m willing to bet that some seem insurmountable to you. Impossible. You’ll never achieve that one. You should just give up now.
Or not.
What I do (or tell myself that I do, even if I don’t always) is break it down. Make the overall goal. The big one. The Mecca of goals.
Then I figure out how to get there. What can I do today, right now (or stop doing) to get closer to the goal? It might just be opening a website so I can read it when I have time. Or contacting someone. Or getting my hair cut. Whatever. It has to be digestible and doable.
Then I find the next step. Maybe it’s just thinking and planning what’s next.
You get my point. Take tiny steps until you achieve your goal.
- It may help to write down your goals. If you blog, blog about the goal so others can hold you to it.
- There are websites where you can post your goals and others will help you stick to them.
- Review your goals just as you would a business plan. Make sure you’re still moving toward them.
How do you achieve your goals?
