First Step: Take an A4 blank page / notepad. Don’t use your computer

*You can use one of two methods: 1. 2 categories: 1. Personal 2. Work 2. 3 categories: 1. What do you want to own 2. What do you want to be 3. What you want to do
Third Step: create a list of everything you think you want to do / achieve in 2016. No Filters.

Select them for the right reasons * Additional Guiding questions: 1. How do I want to spend my time? 2. What daily activities make me want to leap out of bed? 3. What do I want to learn? 4.

SMART Specific - Measurable - Attainable - Relevant - Time Bound:
Specific: A specific goal will usually answer the five Ws (What, Why, Who, Where, and Which). Writing specific objectives fleshes out your goal so you can easily identify what you want to accomplish. Measurable: If your goal isn’t measurable, there will be no way to know if you’re making progress. You need to address the question, “How will I know when this is accomplished?” Attainable: Your goal must be something that you can realistically attain. I would love to fly like a bird by jumping off a cliff with no parachute, but gravity would have the last word in that interaction. However, learning to jump off a cliff with a hang glider is more realistic. Relevant: If your goal doesn’t mean anything to you, then it isn’t worth pursuing. Tie your goals to your deeper values to give them more meaning. Make sure you are behind the goal 100% so you stay motivated to achieve it. Time Bound: You need to have a deadline. Otherwise it’s just a dream that never becomes reality. Putting down a deadline makes you more committed to bringing it to fruition.
Use positive language in your goals Write them in a way there is only one meaning to it.
A well set goal: Spend more time with my family: 1. Coming back home at 18:30 at least 3 times a week 2. Don’t work on Weekends 3. Not check my emails on family time
A well set goal: Learn new things: 1. Watch a TED talk everyday 2. Do one Udemy course a month 3. Read
Planning your way towards the goals: Break it down into little bits Make an actual actionable plan to get it Share to be held accountable Set milestones Set checkpoints Add stakes If the goal doesn’t work - change it
