The problem with goals and goal setting

The Problem With Goals and Goal

SettingSetting a SMART Goal is only half the battle

By Charles Brown

Here’s What You Already Know:

Goals should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time targeted (ie SMART goals)

Goals should be written downBreak big goals down into small,

easily-accomplished stepsReview your goals every day

That’s all good advice, but…What happens when other important

obligations get in the way?What happens when you just get

distracted?What happens when you get bored

or discouraged?What happens when your motivation

wanes?

Here’s the problem…

Most of the literature on goals, is only about

goal-setting, not on goal-doing

Has this happened to you?

You set a SMART goalYou wrote downYou reviewed it dailyBUT …

A few months later, you have made little or no

progress toward achieving your goal

What happened?

The problem is you have a great system for setting goals, but not for seeing

them through

You need a tool to help you take consistent, daily

actions – and keep your motivation at a high level

You need the 30 Day Goal Machine

The 30 Day Goal MachineIs a Dashboard Software

ProgramI built this system to help me achieve my own goals, because I found that I was easily sidetracked and was not putting in the daily effort to see it through.

I wanted to find a way to keep myself on track and taking daily steps toward reaching my goals

Here’s what I found:The power of keeping a daily goal

journalThe absolute MAGIC of turning my

goals into questionsHow to defeat discouragement and

distractionsHow to force my self to take daily

actions (even if they were very small steps)

How to keep myself motivated

Then I turned this system into a simple software program

It is a dashboard tool you download onto your computer

It breaks my system into easy-to-learn modules

If gives you a worksheet to track your progress
