If you find yourself wondering, “Why cant I stick to my goals?” these four quick tips are for you:
1. Goal isn’t the right size
You want to be a CEO? Great! However working on a goal that big can be discouraging. Don’t forget that there are steps in between that you’ll have accomplish first. Goals should be SMART goals. Check your goals against this framework.
2. Timeline isn’t accurate
If you want to save $5,000 but can only contribute $100 a month, you won’t reach your goal in 3 months. Try extending your time horizon to see success.
3. Lacking a support group
Peer pressure is real, boo. Find a core team of people who understand and support you in goals. AKA that friend who won’t encourage you to buy that new dress when you should deposit it into your vacation fund.
4. Too critical of your progress
Sometimes progress comes slower than we would like but it’s important to acknowledge that progress has been made! Focus on the positive and it will give you strength to reach that goal!
