237: Goal -- Nut

How do you keep track of your goals? 

 

So yeah, again back on the question 'How do you keep track of your goals'? There's really nothing wrong with not being able to keep track of your goals, I mean come on I guess it's those who are very OC would do that (*cough* *cough*), and aren't we suppose to live spontaneously? (okay, enough of being contrary).

Anyway, if you ask me how do I keep track on my goals, it's about having a checkpoint dates every week. What I mean about checkpoint dates it's really about a certain day on my week where in I would go through what I have done related to my goals. Like for example, in one of my goals I've written about learning a new sport. Every week, during Sundays there's a certain question on my planner where in it asks me 'Learned new sport?', and etc.,

Why do I do this? The reason why I've ended up making a checkpoint every week is because I want to be certain that I won't forget my goals. I'm not sure how others have accomplish their goals, I just do not trust myself that I will be able to carry through without forgetting what I am really supposed to be accomplishing.

I have to say that making a checkpoint every week works for me because it aligns my activities according to what I wanted to accomplish by the end of the year.

But lo and behold, I have to admit that it's a challenge. First, every week I am expected to see an accomplishment may it be small or not, so when I realized that I haven't done anything according to my plans, I ended up berating myself. Yeah, sorry I am self destructive OC. But yeah, I easily forgive myself. By telling myself that I have to make up for it.

But really, try not to be so hard on yourself by trying to deliver everything according to your plans. The point is do something -- anything according to what you wanted to accomplish by the end of the year. I may not be able to do my some small stuff according to my goals, but I make sure that I make up on it. Keep focused. Keep going!
