Good morning Steemians, I am going to talk again with about goals and plans for this new year because it is so important. I hope you will be inspired reading my articles and you will take action and the right steps to achieve your goals.
I have a lot to study for my exams but I love spending my time on Steemit. I feel I learn more here than from university books.
It’s that time of the year again where you make plans and set goals that you desire to accomplish in 2018. Making resolutions without setting adequate plans in place on how to achieve each one of your goals is a recipe for failure.
Progress characterizes growth, and if you must record significant development in your life, you must be willing to set goals and plan how to accomplish every one of them this New Year.
The first thing you should do is to sit down and reflect on the goals you set for yourself in 2017. You need to identify the steps or activities that you engaged in which hindered you from accomplishing all of your goals in the previous year.
Doing this will help you to set appropriate measures in place that will prevent a reoccurrence in the New Year. Studying your behavior is vital if you want to achieve anything worthwhile in 2018, therefore you must not take this step for granted as you plan towards having a better 2018.
Set goals for yourself, goals that will make you a better version of yourself. This will engender more confidence in you and your abilities, and you will end up attracting like-minded individuals who will help you in the journey of life.
Write down your resolutions and goals. There is power in committing anything of worth to paper. Research has shown that writing down your goals or aspirations makes it more likely that you will complete them instead of committing them to memory.
Get a notebook or diary and ensure you take notes of how far you have gone when it comes to accomplishing your goals. Keeping track of your progress will help you revisit your resolutions and goals to ensure you are still on track. You will be pleasantly surprised by how far you have gone and the terrain you have covered towards accomplishing your goals or aspirations.
Having positive thoughts at all times is therapeutic. This is the first step that you must put in place; have a firm belief in yourself that you can be whatever you want to be. You can achieve anything you set your heart to do. Nothing can stop you, except your mind. Therefore, place no limits on your abilities and what you can do to change your life around for good. The mind is very powerful, and must not be taken for granted in any way.
Create time to celebrate your accomplishments, no matter how little. When you mark any milestone, you are merely affirming that you can do it and will have come to a step or two closer to your goals for the year.
When you follow the tips outlined above, you will look back at the end of the year with gratitude and wonder at how far you have come and how much you have accomplished within that time-frame.
