Customize your goals | Steem-bounty

in #life6 years ago

Many people let themselves pulled in a routine, working intensively, but at the end they realize they didn’t earn anything important. That’s why anything you do needs to be driven by a purpose, a goal that means something for you.

Find what you’re passionate about and build your activities around it.

Famous athletes, successful people and innovators are always guided by a goal, and this allows them to focus all of their power into one cause. When you have a clear goal it’s easier to see your personal evolution and to avoid difficulties.

Setting a goal has 3 steps. Firstly, create an idea about what you want to do. Secondly, divide that concept into practical ideas that need to be materialized step by step. Lastly, make a plan for you further actions.

There are two types of goals: those on the long term and those on the sort term.

In order to establish long term goals, the first thing you have to do is to analyze the domain that you are going to follow. Ask yourself questions and give answers in time. Here’s an example.

Career: What level am I on and where do I want to get?

Financial status: How much do I want to earn?

Studies: What information do I have and where do I have to fill in blanks? Which are the abilities that I need to develop?

Family: Is family a priority for me? How to become a better son/daughter, a better husband/wife or a better father/mother?

Way of thinking: How flexible am I in accepting others’ opinions?

Utility: Do I want to be useful for others?

Regarding short term goals, if you have already found out what you want to do, you have to establish a deadline for executing the component actions of your goal.

Based on your own personality and your way of working, choose between one year, half a year, a few months or a few weeks. Take small steps in achieving your goals.

Establish your priorities and follow the necessary conditions for a good goal. It has to be clearly formulated, measurable, achievable and to be framed in time.

Great article! Without having clear goals, the things will not change. Furthermore, once a goal is set, the individual should pursue its path and run the extra mile to get things done. Stepping out from the comfort zone and leave behind any excuse(I do not have time, it's too late to do that etc) should be a must.

Hello there my friend! Actually I've set a goal this year of reaching 10,000 SP! To others, that is so impossible but even if I know that it is hard for me to achieve that, I am still motivated by my friends to really focus on that goal! I also have made plans on how to attain that goal and that is to powerup at least 50% of my liquid rewards! Thank you for sharing this one, P.S. i've also read your goal about buying your own apartment, I wish you the best in getting that goal done! Let's support each other to reach our goals :)

Recently I discovered the only thing I do aside putting up a new post, is to visit my feed and scout for posts written by @jwolf

First, I like the fact that you mentioned it GOOD GOAL. This mean that there are bad goals. Sincerely I believe some persons are getting far below what they deserve on steemit and you are one.

Thanks for arousing in me the zeal to attain heights (With several of your posts) even though I sometimes allow inferiority complex to bedevil me.

Thanks @jwolf

I think it's important to set reachable goals and to break large projects into bite-sized chunks. An example? We once had a huge exhibition area to get in order. There was a warren of small rooms and an enormous hall. My team thought it was a daunting task until I broke it down into little sections.

My attitude was "think of the space in sections. The completion of each one giving you a little victory." We actually had fun making a team game out of it. This can be applied to any task to help you move forward one step at a time.

AGREED! My mother always use to say, “Figure out what you love, what you are naturally good at or what you despise. Your purpose will be related to building what you love, doing what you are good at or fighting what you despise.” I now know she was right.

Very well said....
I've realized that goals I set without having a clear purpose were never achieved.

It's important to set long term goals, but it is much more important to break down those long term goals into short term goals.....

That way, it'll be a lot easier to achieve.

Not setting deadlines to a goal is almost like not setting a goal entirely.

Since you don't have a deadline, you'd be nonchalant about it and you may never achieve those goals.

It is also important that we are disciplined so we can achieve those set goals.

Thanks for this wonderful piece.

This was really motivational
You have just supplemented what I was taught in university concerning goals and objectives.
You have said it all.
Goal is what drives success, when we have goals and objectives it becomes much more easier to achieve what we have planned.
Thanks for the motivation

Good one, not easy but helpful if one can set these goals. I love my family and even my job - on Steemit I focus more on stuff I really like most such as music community plus a bit sports, photography, beer, blockchain.... so all - Damn just lost focus :-)
