T is fior..... Time limited.

If your setting a goal, you need to set a time frame for achievement. Think about it - there's no point in simply going for "whenever". So set yourself a time limit. Say "by this time next week/month/year I will....."
Deadlines give focus.

Who else is excited it's Friday?

Day 4 and it's R..... Realistic.

If your goal isn't realistic, you're never going to achieve it. Yes, make it as big as you can, just as long as you stand a good chance of getting there. It may take time and yes, it's usually hard, but sooooo worth it!!

A is fot...... Day 3 of SMART goal setting.

Achievable! Let's be honest. so many goals fail simply because they are way too ambitious.
In short, if you want to succeed, the desired result must be something within reach. Sure, set the bar really high, but not so high that it's unrealistic.

Here's to big goals. I mean really big. But not too big!

M is for...... Day two of SMART goal setting.

Measurable. Makes sense really - if you can't measure your progress, how will you know if you're succeeding?

So set the parameters at the start and then keep checking them. Are you getting faster/happier/thinner/fitter?

But don't forget - this can be a long process and the results may take time, so don't get disheartened if you don't see quick improvements/changes. Be patient. when the change begins, it'll all start coming together in a rush!

As lots of us struggle with home-schooling, it's worth remembering that teaching life skills is just as important

S is for........
Day one - SMART goal setting should always start with "Specific"
To be truly successful a goal simply has to be specific. It must state, clearly what you aim to achieve, i.e. your outcome.
So, today, don't worry about how you might reach that goal, just decide what it is. Make it clear, make if defined, make it SPECIFIC.
And please feel free to share your goal. Happy to offer advice and support to anyone who might want it.

Monday. A new day, a new week. What better time to get started on the road to something new?

15/01/2021

All nest week, I'm going to be talking about goals - how to set them and, more importantly, how to achieve them.
The best goals are SMART - kind of makes sense, when you think about it. Smart by name (or acronym if we're being precise) and Smart by nature.

Each day, from Monday, I'll post a different letter and gives some hints and tips on how to give your goals the greatest chance of success.

Maybe use the weekend to come up with some ideas on what your goals might be..........

Creating the right atmosphere to relax in is vital and it's worth taking time to get it just right. I like to turn down the lights and curl up in a chair to read. And lighting a scented candle makes it perfect. This is my current favourite - so soothing.

My favourite chair also happens to be my cat's preferred spot!! Ah well, her loss is my gain! 😁

14/01/2021

On cold rainy days like today, I love to curl up and read.
I have a special "corner" that's just perfect. A comfy chair, the warm glow of a lamp and a good book.
It's my favourite spot in the house.
Where's your special place?

Did you know.........
Writing down your goals gives you a much better chance of achieving them?
Makes sense I suppose, like making a real commitment, rather than just wishful thinking.
Have you made any goals for 2021?

Working from home can have its advantages...... 😆

Don't worry, The 52 List is still important to me and a great tool if you want to Get Stuff Done.
I'll keep on sharing ideas and motivation and please, if you have any goals you want to share, feel free. 😊
