Yeah yeah… You've heard it all before, but have you actually given it a go? Below I have constructed a tool for you to help find some goals worth achieving in order to work toward self achievement. If you're anything like me, you will never feel like you've had a constructive day, month or year unless you've set yourself some goals, applied yourself and destroyed them…
So here is my method for personal growth…
1. Set Goals that fit the S.M.A.R.T. principal and write a personal contract to yourself for accountability purposes
S pecific
M easurable
A ttainable
R ealistic
T ime-Bound
2. Figure out what standards you will need and make a decision to reach your goals
3. Show up and be purposeful
Now provided your goals fit the SMART guidelines, you will either progress or regress in whatever area of your life that goal is associated with.
Below you will find a handy list of possible goals you can choose from to advance in a number of different areas of your life.
Do you want to be a better you?
If you answered yes, than one; you are awesome and two; I encourage you to choose one goal from each of the lists below and start working on some progressions for your life.
