Forget Goals And Try This

0 replies
We all know how important it is to set goals. Most books about success teach you about setting goals

I've tried this way and yes it does work but sometimes it just doesn't. When you set goals they tend to overwhelm you and force you to procrastinate. When you feel overwhelmed you just won't take action.

What if there was a way you could set up your goals which would allow you to take action and hit them easily? Luckily I'll tell you about the way I set goals now which has helped me to hit more goals in a few weeks then I've been able to hit in a few years.

What it is it that I do that makes it so easy for me to hit my goals?

I create "SYSTEMS"

Systems are little step by step actions you take daily to hit your goals. They are small enough that they don't overwhelm you but big enough for you to notice subtle changes in your life.

The first step to hitting your goals start with setting goals that are measurable. Most people when they want to lose weight set goals which overwhelm them. If you set a goal that says " I want to lose 50 pounds by August or whatever set month" you give yourself something that you can work backward from.

Set a goal that is measurable.

Next, create a system to hit that goal.

The number one reason it's so hard for some people to hit their goals is that they don't know what to do. If this is the case then it's going to be a lot harder for you to get started.

Here's what you should do instead. Let's say that you have the goal of losing 50 pounds by November.

Now that you have the goal you want to create a system.

Goal: 50 Pounds By November

Steps: Find a workout program
Buy equipment needed

System: Workout 6 Days a Week from 5:00 to 7:00pm
Monday to Saturday
Get home at 5:00
Bath
Put on gym gear
Workout until 7:00

A system is simply the steps you take every single day to reach closer to your goal. With smaller goals, you help yourself to get closer to your bigger goals.

Conclusion

Setting and hitting your goals is easy when you take smalls steps by creating systems. You can do this for your online business or anything you want to achieve in life. Hitting the smaller goals daily helps you to stay motivated and hit the long term goal overtime. Try it.

Hope this helps
