Goal Setting: Success Key # 4: Track Your Progress

Friday, March 21, 2008 posted by Sheryl

This is the last blog on this series of Goal Setting.  If you remember, the other Success Keys are: # 1: Be Committed; # 2: Create a Realistic Plan and # 3: Be Prepared for Setbacks.  We also learned how to use EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique to quickly, easily, painlessly and permanently eliminate our cravings and the emotional blocks that interfere with successfully reaching our goals

Today’s blog is on the final Goal Setting Success Key # 4: Tracking Your Progress.

Reaching goals usually takes time and often, we don’t see results for a while.  Unless you have a way of tracking your progress, you won’t know if you are actually accomplishing your goal.  This is often when people get discouraged and quit.

I have used the example of weight loss because so many of us can identify with that goal. Tracking, either though weights, measures, charts or keeping a written record will show you at a glance, if anything is happening. 

Motivate yourself by celebrating your successes and by getting positive feedback from supportive family and friends. 

Also, don’t compare yourself to others.   It doesn’t matter what others are doing.  All that matters is what you are doing. 

 What do you want to change in your life?  How badly do you want to change it?   You have the ability and there is lots of help out there.

I don’t know who said this but my husband has often quoted it to me: “You are the one who has to decide, whether to do it or toss it aside.”

What are you going to do today to make tomorrow better?  Only you can answer that.  Good luck!  Cancel that statement.  You make your own luck.
