4 Steps in Achieving Your Goals

We've all been there — we all tried to set out goals, start the journey, but somehow lost along the way or get demotivated before we even reach it. Sometimes, we fail to achieve our goals because we fail to plan them ahead. We don't clearly set how we are supposed to achieve that, so when we are faced with obstacles or distractions, we tend to give up and change our minds.

Today, I share with you four simple steps in achieving our dreams and goals.

It's not enough to aim it, you must hit it.

1. What do you want?

Define your goals. Write it down and have a clear idea of what you really want to achieve. In order to stay motivated in pursuing your goals, you have to be regularly aware of it, so checking your notes and list will definitely be a big help.

2. Why do you want it?

For every goal, there is a good reason or motive. Whether it is for personal, family, or career purposes, goals should be something that is realistic and can have a good impact and improvement in your life. Declare it on your goal list, too.

3. When do you want to achieve it?

Create a timeline for your goals. We all know that 'deadlines' are powerful motivators, so use it wisely.

4. How are you going to achieve it?

Start where you are, then plan and set strategies on how to get to it. Remember: goals should be clear and specific, realistic and achievable, personalized, and growth-directed.
