3 Tips For How To Make Successful Goals


Being a Life Coach and a Yoga Teacher means I am privileged with helping many people achieve their goals.  I truly love everything about this work!  Check out my 3 Tips below for how to set goals that set you up to succeed!

Tip #1 Celebrate the baby steps!

Keep in mind that some goals you make are short term goals and some are long term goals.  Identify which goals you can achieve tomorrow vs. which goals you may need to achieve in 1 year, 5 years or even 10 years!  People don’t always realize that the baby steps are usually the hardest part of achieving your goal.  Recognize the baby steps you make toward your progress and take time to reward yourself!  Even just a positive thought or some words of encouragement can be a simple reward to keep yourself motivated.

Tip #2 Envision your goal as a reality and see it everyday. 

Taking the time to visualize your goal is important.  It sets you up for feeling the fruits of your labor and motivates you to keep up the good work!  Making a visual space where you can see your goal everyday can be extremely helpful as a reminder to make daily progress toward achieving your goal.  This may be a vision board with pictures and cutouts of your goal, it may be a phrase of what achieving your goal feels like or it may be a motivational list of smaller baby steps to check off in order to mover closer to your goal that month.

Tip #3 Accountability is key! 

Having someone that can check in on your progress or vice versa can be so valuable to achieving a goal!  Joining a social media challenge, making a goal with friends or even hiring a life coach can help you check in with others and share your progress.  It’s helpful to have someone to share your challenges as well as your successes with.  Never underestimate the power of a helping hand or a listening ear.
