HOW TO SET YOUR GOALS & KEEP THEM

Business

September 14, 2017

Set a day for your goal planning!

This is probably the most useful tip that we could give to you when you are setting a time for goal planning! We set a time in our calendars to set aside just for goal planning! It is a time we step out of the office, shut off our notifications/distractions, and focus on what is in front of us.

When planning the next months goals, review the previous month!

Typically when we goal set for the next month, we have to look at the previous months goals. It shows us what we fully accomplished, what we need to finish working on, and what we didn’t even touch.

Keep them:

Small, realistic, and focused! We set 2017 main goals then throughout the twelve months set goals to accomplish the larger one! Let’s take the example of Networking as our larger goal then throughout the twelve months we would work on setting goals to help us network even more! Remember to not only make professional goals, but personal goals. What are some of those things you been wanting to achieve that has been nagging at your sou

Give yourself some grace!

One of the hardest parts of goal setting is feeling defeated when you can’t or didn’t accomplish a goal. Honestly, give yourself grace when you don’t accomplish a goal full – celebrate the progress – even if it’s on another goal! Sometimes we need to make an adjust to a goal that was set, so keep flexible!

Keep your goals in a place where you can see them, daily!

We make a copy of the goal sheet and hang it up by our computers to check on it daily! Or put it on your desk next to your planner for daily check-in’s.

So what are some of your goals you like to reach sweet friend?  Email us and we will help support you as you reach for it.  So that you don’t feel you are all alone, below are a few goals we each like to do personally before the end of year. Check back with us in December as we revisit goal setting for the new year and let you know what we accomplished!
