#15 Four Simple tips to achieve goals

As we ring in the new year, many of us will begin the process of setting New Year’s Resolutions, hoping to spark positive and lasting change in our lives. ​
​

The New Year provides an opportunity to refocus and refresh our goals and gives us the chance to be intentional about what we want to achieve. Human beings are naturally goal orientated and without something to focus on, we are at real risk of stagnation and even despair. 
 
The remarkable thing about goals is that once we set a goal the following things happen. Energy is generated, ideas are sparked, and a new awareness of information is unlocked that can assist us in achieving the goal.
 
The initial excitement and energy that exists when new year’s resolutions are set can be quite infectious and intoxicating. 
​

However, research shows that less than 50% of those who set New Year’s resolutions end up being successful.

Here are 4 simple tips to help you avoid becoming a statistic in 2022.
 

1. Write your goals down and be as specific as possible to ensure you can measure and track your success.
2. Visualise your goals with vividness and emotion – picture yourself crossing the line of that triathlon and imagine the sense of achievement and accomplishment that goes with it.
3. Revisit your goals often and share them only with those that can help and support.
4. Acknowledge your wins along the way and take time to celebrate your successes.
