This is why many people do not reach their goals!!!
Does it happen to you that you want to start with your exercise routines to lose 50 pounds and you start, but after a week you give up?
Have you thought about saving good money to buy an asset, but end up losing sight of your goal?
Do you plan trips and do not finish specifying them?
Achieving goals is what keeps us in constant motion, however, many times these aspirations escape us.
What can we do to materialize our achievements? Is there a secret to that?
No secret, but there are principles extracted from the discipline of coaching that can help you.
They are the same principles with which millions of people have relied on coaching to achieve their goals and grow personally and professionally. And part of this knowledge is what you will discover below.
Powerful principles of coaching that help achieve goals
The key to developing continuous improvement and reaching our goals lies in making small steps. Making brief and constant improvements has greater effectiveness than it strengthens in a gigantic challenge.
In this way, you remove the huge obstacles that could get in the way and, at the same time, you will be fighting one of the most damaging limitations that arise when tackling large challenges, the fear of change.
The smaller the changes you'll make when tackling small goals, they're more realistic to accomplish and help keep you excited.
The opposite happens when you are facing a gigantic challenge, you think about everything that can be demanded of you and you start to postpone until you completely forget about it.
In this way you let go of the goals that keep you purposeless and unwilling to face life.
That is why the principle of going step by step (the kaizen model) is extremely important.
That is, take small challenges, but make them constant, tackle accessible challenges where it is practically impossible to fail.
It is about fixing your gaze on each step you take and in this way going as far as you set your mind to. The Kaizen model causes that continuous improvement to be generated in you.
Certainly, you can take longer to accomplish a big goal by dividing it into smaller goals, but that process of going little by little becomes more feasible, and each small goal achieved generates a satisfaction that you will experience every moment.
The key is to take those small steps. They are mini achievements that ignite a spark and keep you going. This breaks with the idea of trying to escape and, on the contrary, promotes continuity.
What is the right mindset for goal achievement?
The secret to achieving goals lies in the focus you give to what you want to achieve.
Achieving a goal is not just about thinking and acting on occasions, it is about focusing well on what you want and taking the right actions and mindset that will lead you to materialize it.
It is important that you set such attractive goals for yourself that it would be impossible to abandon them.
So you must think about your goal, look at it, feel it, listen to it, make it part of an achievement that you have already achieved.
How many people in the world want, for example, to learn a new language and start a course that after a few weeks they no longer have the interest to continue?
That means there is no 100% focus on the goal they want.
And how to generate an effective approach to meet each goal?
Look, these are 3 key aspects that contribute positively to the focus of your goals.
1- Set goals that are measurable and be specific
It is necessary that you know in detail the objective that you want to achieve and, in addition, that you can measure the progress that you are achieving in relation to your goal.
That is, do not just ask to lose weight, better be specific and propose to lose 10, 20, 30 pounds, etc.
2- Create habits that contribute to your goals and eliminate those that harm you.
Develop activities that push you towards the fulfillment of your goal, no matter how small, the important thing is that you keep a constant reminder that you are on the right track to meet your big goals.
Also, you must have the firmness to eliminate the habits that do not let you move forward.
If you know that, for example, video games make you go to bed very late and this harms you when you want to get up very early to do your exercise routine, you should try to eliminate the habit of playing until late at night.
3- You don't want to do them all, choose 2 or 3 for now.
When we set many goals at the same time, we end up exhausted and we see the challenge so enormous that sooner or later we lose motivation and give up.
That is why it is recommended that you choose 2 or 3 objectives, those that excite you the most, and focus exclusively on them.
In addition, I will give you some final tips that benefit the positive mindset and the achievement of goals:
If you experience a situation that has apparently harmed you, do not focus on the losses, focus on the experience that has left you and that in turn can allow you to find better results later.
Do not regret the possible opportunities that you have missed in the past, visualize and get excited imagining a successful future with the actions that you are going to take from now on.
Avoid complaining about what you don't have. Whatever you have today, be grateful.
A hug and I hope your participation.
