Developing Personal Goals

Got Dreams?

Got Goals?

You want it all soon?

This article will help you start realizing your personal goals in an achievable and realistic way. And it is all up to You!

 I am mentioning some key tips for personal goal setting that works.

 1. Understand what you want specifically

 Identify what exactly you want to achieve in the short term as well as in the long term - it will help to plan your next moves and work out a strategy. For example, don't just say "I want to learn to play a musical instrument" – be specific to your interest - if it is the piano that you have set your heart on then set your personal goal to "I want to learn to play the piano". This way, you can map out which piano school you want to go to and under what budget.

 2. Pen down

Writing down your goal on pen and paper is an effective method for it to remain in your conscious mind and you have a constant and conspicuous reminder of your plan. Place your list or goal where you pass by all the time. Stick it to your bathroom mirror or your refrigerator so that it is clearly visible to you. 

 3. Have realistic goals

 There is nothing more disheartening than failing at a personal goal. Therefore, set goals that you have the capacity to reach and don't overwork yourself. Break your big goal into mini-goals with timelines so that you do not overwhelm yourself. 

 4. Prioritize sensibly

 Identifying which goals are more important or urgent than others is the key to prioritization. Allocate your list of goals into short term (one, three or five years), and into long term (which may be postponed for a longer period). Very importantly, separate wants from needs.

 Friends, setting personal goals is not difficult once you have given yourself the time to think about what you want out of life. Then supplement it with enough drive to see your dreams through to the very end. Only YOU have the power to achieve your dreams and goals – Run it past a trusted friend, take the help of a coach - either ways get started!
