Some goal setting during our New Years Retreat 2020
It's 2020! The start of a brand New Year. I get new year vibes every January. It feels like we have been given yet another chance to start afresh in this journey of life. It's the perfect month to reflect on the past year, to refresh yourself and think of what the new year will offer. I love setting goals for myself and literally writing them down in a diary I open everyday. Others often ask why I do it ever so religiously every year, so this is why...
To help me focus
Instead of just stating what I wish to achieve one random day in the future, writing down my hopes as a goal allows me to focus on the goal, taking it from a mere thought to reality. Once I have it down, I then write down the practical steps I need to take to reach the goal, this helping me to stay focused on track and eliminate distractions.
It increases my motivation
When I write down my goals I feel motivated to achieve them. I become accountable to myself and my subconscious mind takes note of the goal, therefore giving me the internal pressure to act towards achieving them.
It's the first step to achieving my goals
"The secret to getting ahead is getting started" - Mark Twain. Writing down my goals is one step towards implementing them, and once I start something, I am more inclined to finishing and I am at a better place than not having had started at all.
Writing down makes my goals real
Just the actual physical action of writing down my goals is an exciting experience, and when I then see my goals written down on paper it makes them feel so real and achievable. I start to list all items I need to achieve the goals and the time frames required.
Gives me control to choose the life I want
When I write down my goals I am more in control of my life, and I make decisions with intention, leaving minimal events to chance. I proactively choose what to act on and my daily decisions are more inclined to the achievement of my goals, allowing me to experience the life I want.
"Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible" - Tony Robbins
Next step, I gotta work to actualize these goals of mine! Now your turn. Do you believe in the "New Year, New Me" trend of setting January goals?
