I was invited to share on Moving from Setting Goals to Doing Goals on a platform and I’ll like to share my note. Enjoy.
What is a goal?
A goal according to the Merriam Webster dictionary is defined as the end toward which effort is directed.
To paraphrase, it is an action or event towards which effort( time, dedication, money) is directed to achieve a desirable result.
Why do we set goals?
- To help us focus.
-
To organize your time and resources.
-
To monitor progress.
-
To evaluate achievements and setbacks.
Characteristics of a good goal.
S- Specific
M- Measurable
A- Attainable
R- Realistic
T- Time bound
Various forms: Short term or long term. Goals for career, relationships, family, spiritual, personal development, fun.
Most of us set goals eg new year resolutions; however, at the end of the year, we later realize we didn’t put the required effort or our goals were not SMART!
So, how do we move to doing our goals after setting SMART goals?
- Write it down.
-
Have a schedule.
-
Work at your goal daily no matter how negligible it might seem.
-
Break down your goals to small to-achieve list.
-
Don’t be lazy.
-
Tell your tribe about your goal so that when you’re tired along the way they can help you on your journey.
-
Stay committed.
-
Celebrate your ‘small’ victories.
-
Pray about it.
-
Be flexible on your path to execution because no matter how we dream or plan, God comes along the way to put adjustments to ensure the end result is exceedingly abundantly above what we could ever think or imagine.
I hope this has blessed you, thanks for reading and don’t leave without dropping your comment and following via mail.❤️
Love. Learn. Inspire.
