The Best Goal Achievement Strategy

Jul 07, 2022

Having a strategy to achieve your goals is important.  Without a plan, you won’t know what to do in order to achieve your goals.  That’s why it’s important to find the best strategy that works for you.

 

Strategy Example

For example, if you want to lose weight, your strategy would be to exercise and eat healthy.  You might choose a good strategy to exercise and cook at home three days a week.  Your better strategy would be to exercise and cook at home five days a week.  Your extreme perfect strategy is to exercise and cook at home seven days a week.  Your good strategy is the bare minimum you would consider to be making progress towards achieving your good goal.  Your better strategy says you’re being more diligent and taking the right steps to achieve your better goal.  Your perfect strategy leaves no margin for error.  It says that you’ve knocked it out of the park to go above and beyond in order to...

Should You Have A Good, Better, Best Goal?

Jun 30, 2022

You may have heard of the good, better, best goal setting strategy where you set three different goals to achieve.  For example, if you want to lose weight by the end of the month.  Your good goal is five pounds, your better goal is seven pounds, and your best goal is to lose ten pounds by the end of the month.  Your goal is to lose weight but there is scale in which you can achieve that goal.  But, is this really the best goal setting strategy?

 

Three Winning Goals

If you achieved your good goal, you’d be happy with that result.  But, you’d feel even better if you achieved your better goal and over the moon excited if you achieved your best goal.  The idea is that you’d put forth the same amount of time and effort to achieve the goal, but you wouldn’t be upset if you just hit your good goal instead of your best goal.  Each goal is a winner to you.

 

Bigger Goals

However, let’s be honest, in the above...

How To Stop Comparing Your Success To Others

Jun 23, 2022

When you look around and see other people achieving success quickly, you think that you should too.  Yet, achieving your goals isn’t an overnight success.  In fact, the people who you think quickly achieved success actually took a long time in the making.  You’re just seeing the highlight reel.  Here is how to stop comparing your success to others.

 

Mindset

You might be thinking that success happens for others but not for you.  Don’t buy into that belief.  It only keeps you stuck in a fixed mindset without the possibility of believing that there is more for you and your life.  Success is more than possible for you.  It can happen.  You just have to keep working towards achieving your goals and never give up.

 

Not Failing

Don’t think that you’re a failure just because you haven’t achieved your goal as quickly as someone else.  It may take you longer to achieve your goal.  But,...

Baggage

Imagine you’re going on a car ride to achieve your goal.  You’re going to need to pack a few things to take on your trip.  Leave behind all your fears, worries, and doubts.  Those things can weigh down your car and get pretty heavy.  Lighten your load and let go of some of things you’ve been carrying around.  You don’t need these on the journey.  In fact, they will only hinder you and slow you down from reaching your goal.  Instead, only bring your essentials.  Such as, water, snacks, and a positive outlook with the determination that you will...

How To Overcome Your Negative Inner Critic

Jun 09, 2022

The negative inner critic in your mind starts getting loud when you’re trying to step outside your comfort zone.  It just wants to keep you safe.  But, that limits what you’re able to do.  It ultimately prevents you from achieving your goals and dreams in life.  Stop letting that negative voice paralyze you.  Here is how to overcome your negative inner critic.

 

Take Responsibility

First, acknowledge that the inner critic is you.  It’s not someone else.  It’s not an alter ego or a bad part of you.  It’s simply you.  When you recognize that this voice is truly yours, you have the power to change it.  The voice may have been formed by things that you’ve heard others say.  But, you have repeatedly told yourself these things which have made them your own.  By taking ownership of this inner critic, you are admitting that you’re 100% responsible for either believing or not believing...

With success comes failure.  Usually you have to fail a bunch of times before you reach success.  It takes a lot of learning, tweaking, and adjusting to get there.  But, when you do, you sure are excited and proud of yourself.  Failure is inevitable when you’re going after something you really want in life.  The key is to persevere through the failure in order to successfully achieve your goals.  That’s why you must change your perspective on failure so that you don’t give up on your goals and dreams in life.

 

Avoiding Failure

When you’re working to achieve your goals there are a lot of unknowns.  You don’t have all the answers or the perfect direct path mapped out.  So, you continue researching and stalling with other reasons as to why you’re not quite ready to take action yet.  When the truth is, you’re just afraid to experience failure.  However, this waiting is what keeps you stuck...

Mantras are a powerful way to tell your mind what you want to believe.  You repeatedly tell yourself a phrase that motivates you to believe something particular so that you can take action and move through what’s been holding you back.  Usually, these blocks are fear, worry, and doubt that prevent you from achieving your goals in life.  Here is a mantra you can use to help you believe that your success is inevitable.

Achieving Your Goal Visualization

May 12, 2022

You must create the thought of achieving your goal in your mind before it actually becomes your reality.  That first initial thought of what you want to achieve solidifies it as entirely possible.  But, often you get hung up in all the worries, doubts, and fears along the way that cause you to question your ability to achieve your goal.  Visualizing the point when you’ve achieved your goal is extremely powerful.  It creates that subtle knowing that your success is inevitable.  You will achieve your goal.  It’s going to happen.  Here is a quick six step visualization to help you achieve your goal.

 

Specific Goal

Think about the goal you want to achieve.  Make sure it’s specific enough so that you know when you’ll have achieved it.  Vague goals will only give you a vague visualization.  Ensure that your goal is tangible and includes measure.  Be specific and get clear on the exact goal you want to...

You’re not always going to be motivated to achieve your goals.  There will be times when you don’t feel motivated to do much of anything.  But, that’s when you have to recognize what’s causing the lack of motivation.  Perhaps it’s fear, worry, self doubt, procrastination, or any of the other likely suspects.  Or, it could just be that you’re feeling a bit run down and need to take a break so that you can relax and regroup.  Here is what to do when you lack motivation to achieve your goals.
