6 Things To Avoid If You Want Your Goals Achieved

Ways to Move Closer To Your Goals

set a goal

When you set a goal, you usually know what to do to achieve it. But perhaps, as often as not, that plan will only work out as intended. In reality, achieving your goals is more complex. 

You might find yourself falling off track time and time again, but the sooner you recognize why this is happening and address it, the sooner you will be back on track again to reach your objective. 

If you plan on achieving your goals and seeing them through successfully, rather than stumbling upon them again and again, we’ve got some advice on things you should stop to make your dreams happen.

Stop procrastinating

To achieve anything, you first have to start. But if you procrastinate, you will never get started, let alone finish what you started. To fulfill any goal, you need to start small and start now. Be bold and set yourself realistic targets. 

Make a start instead. Whether it is a career change, a health regime, or some other project, take one small step at a time and don’t look too far ahead. Make it your daily routine to take action towards your goal continually. 

Make it a habit. Action taken today is much easier to deal with than action postponed until tomorrow or next week. Before you know it, you will be well toward achieving your goals. The only way you will ever reach them is by getting off the starting blocks. Procrastination will only ever hold you back.

Stop being so self-critical.

When you try to change your habits and make new positive changes, you will experience a lot of resistance. You will find your inner critic trying to put you down whenever you’re trying something new. 

If you constantly criticize yourself for falling short of your ideals, it will make it harder for you to achieve your goals. We all make mistakes and have slip-ups. Nobody is perfect. So, changing your habits and progress will only be more challenging when you set yourself up to fail because you are too critical, overly self-critical, or too hard on yourself.

 Instead of being so critical, try to be kinder to yourself. For example, if you are trying to eat less junk food, and you slip up and eat something unhealthy, instead of criticizing yourself and saying, “I can’t believe I did that,” why not be a little kinder to yourself and say, “I made a mistake,” and move on. If you can do this, it will make achieving your goals easier.

Stop being so hard on yourself.

As mentioned, achieving your goals is even more challenging when you are too hard on yourself. To make the changes you want, you must learn to be kinder to yourself. It is essential to recognize that you do have the potential to make a positive change in your life. 

Don’t let your self-doubt or inner critic make it harder than it has to be. Set yourself up for success by being kinder towards yourself and not expecting too much too soon. For example, you must be patient if you want to quit smoking or make some other significant lifestyle change. 

Beating yourself over every little slip-up will make it more difficult for you to set a goal, and succeed in the long run. Beating yourself up will only make you feel bad about yourself, whereas being kinder to yourself will help you feel better about your progress. Recognize that you do have the ability to change your life for the better. The first step towards changing your life is first to change the way that you think about yourself.

goals

Stop relying on motivation to get things done.

We all know someone with great ideas always needs help to see them through. They are usually very enthusiastic when discussing their plans, but they always seem to fall aside at the end of the day. If you find yourself relying on a burst of motivation to get things done, you are setting yourself up for failure. 

You want to stay calm about your goals and how you set a goal, get started. You want to be consistent and persistent, not be someone who gets their enthusiasm up, starts something, and then loses interest. After setting goals and making plans, you have to be specific as you can be and will follow through with them. You have to be consistent and commit to following through with your plans. 

If you keep putting things off or waiting for the perfect moment to do them, you will only achieve something or nothing. Set up a system to keep yourself consistent. For example, make a daily or weekly plan for the tasks you have to do. Please put them in your diary or calendar, and don’t let yourself off the hook.

Stop using social media as a distraction.

If you are trying to progress toward your goals and need help, try using social media sparingly. We all have daily distractions that take us away from what we should be doing. We all have things we should be doing but find them challenging to do.

If you find it difficult to progress towards your goals and are constantly being distracted by social media, reduce the time spent on social media. Social media is not going to help you achieve your goals. It is going to distract you from reaching your goals. Try to progress towards your goals without the temptation of social media getting in the way.

Conclusion

When you set a goal, you usually know what to do to achieve it. But perhaps, as often as not, that plan will only work out somewhat as intended. In reality, achieving your goals is more complex. 

You might find yourself falling off track time and time again, but the sooner you recognize why this is happening and address it, the sooner you will be back on track again to reach your objective. 

To achieve your goals and see them through successfully, instead of stumbling upon them, we have some advice on what to avoid to achieve your goals.

How To Achieve Our Goals

What Considerations Do We Need For Progress And Improvements

the wheel of life

what am i talking about?, I am talking about our life style or cycle from when we were toddlers, teenagers, adults, married with family, and when we are old and from my point of view this also includes all the challenges of our lives, what we have faced in our relationship, love life, other aspect of our lives and what our achievement and loses are and what we stand to gain at the end of the day. 

This also involves our goals, ambitions, prospects, our plans for tomorrow and the future. What do we really want for ourselves and our family and how do we make them and our selves happy through our goals plans and achievements.

This really is a life cycle and talking about our goals, where do we really stand as per achieving them, we want the best in what we do as accountants, bloggers, creators, doctors , best fathers and mothers, best husband’s, lovers and so on, but do we go through this process of being the best by being lazy or procrastinating all the time or by  working hard and dedicated at what we do or by living a life that is of no value to us?. 

I believe being focused and doing better things that will project us as good and better role models for ourselves, our families, children and neighbors alike would be the best way to go, thereby making us the best in our different fields of interest as bloggers, writers, engineers and whatever profession we are in  and this all circulates or revolves round our careers, family, friends, romance, fun , recreation, health, money, personal growth and our environment.

There are a lot that needs consideration when it comes to improvement and progress in our lives:

1. We need focus and dedication in whatever we do to get to our life goal
Sometimes we are stock when we are really trying to move forward and what can we do in situations like this?, So being focused would be the way to go.

2. There is nothing as good as committing ourselves to taking action and what steps do we need to take and be satisfied in our different areas of life especially in our Business, Career, Studies, Health and fitness, finance, social life and friends, with our family, in our love life, recreation and fun, contribution to society and personal growth, so we need fulfillment in various aspect of our lives and this all comes to hard work, dedication, focus and taking action and doing the best we can to get to where we want.

  There is a particular quotation which i love by an unknown author which says “Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don’t and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it’d be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.” Author Unknown  I have realized that the earlier you face your goals and purpose in life the better,  for life would be much easier, understandable and this will make achievements and many great things happen. As we all know challenges of life includes financial, relationship, work and many more ,but they all revolve round achievement of life and the more achievement we have of our dreams and goals the better for us.teacher

The past always holds us down and due to this we always have the fear to make a leap of fate or try other things, but many a time this becomes a great hindrance to us and our progress, but as the saying goes “nothing venture nothing gained”, our experience of life is a great instrument or tool that will help us in getting to our destination if used properly and diligently but no matter what the situation and making that leap of fate is our key to stardom, progress, miracle and greatness.

 For us to get to our goals as a blogger,writer,engineer,lawyer or whatever you are, the process of goal setting is the answer to most of our needs and it helps in focusing on what you want to do or need to do and not what others assume you should do and this will surely help in your life accomplishments. It is always a good thing to instigate change and transformation and if possible be the one to shine the light for others to follow. As we all know life is full of opportunities and getting hold of the best opportunities is the greatest fulfillment of life.

“Often, the most extraordinary opportunities are hidden among the seemingly insignificant events of life. If we do not pay attention to these events, we can easily miss the opportunities.” Jim Rohn  Our abilities and attitude to life is a great factor that could bring about our success in life. The challenges and life experiences could stressful and at the same time challenging and boring, but that does not mean we should give up for there is always joy in the morning.  Try being consistent and persevere no matter how tough and difficult it is.  “Are you bored with life? Then throw yourself into some work you believe in with all your heart, live for it, die for it, and you will find happiness that you had thought could never be yours.” Dale Carnegie
