Having goals and working towards them is in our human nature.

It keeps you interested and engaged in your life, giving you direction.

Without a meaning or purpose you are not living and you will not be happy because the things in your life do not serve you.
DECIDE

The first step is deciding what you want in your life. Consider the things that interest you and excite you, preferably something you are passionate about.
WRITE

Writing is a very important part of this because you must be specific when writing down your goals.

You'll use writing to review your progress and log on a daily basis your thoughts and feelings ✍️
ACCOUNTABILITY

Find yourself a trustworthy person within your circle to talk about and discuss your goal with.

Tell them what you want and how you plan to achieve this. They will be realistic in sharing their views and opinions, whilst bringing an outside perspective.
ACCOUNTABILITY (continued)

Telling someone makes you accountable for your actions. But this does not mean to tell everyone you see in your path.

Work quietly and your achievements will be loud and clear for all to see.
SPECIFC

Your next step is to divide your goal into smaller objectives. Set yourself monthly, weekly and daily objectives to help you to continue to progress.

Once you have clear understanding of what is required you'll start to envision the path to success.
ACTION

"A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step" - Lau Tzu

Every journey has a beginning and the hardest part is overcoming the mental blocks stopping you from making a start.

Once you have and you build up momentum it becomes much easier to keep going.
PROGRESS

If something you are doing is not working and you are stuck trying to progress with your objectives, try something else.

Sometimes you hit a wall and in order for you to progress you must take some time away to focus on you and self-care.
CELEBRATING

For every goal you reach it's important that you enjoy your achievement and take some time to appreciate your hard work and dedication.

Celebrate the small wins because you have accomplished them but remember that delayed gratification is the key.
