Choices And Changes: Successful Goal SettingSample

Be Responsible

Pursuing your goals will require you to make several choices and adjust to many CHANGES and change is hard. It’s good to be aware on how you would react to change.

It will be uncomfortable. Change means doing something different, and as such, people will almost always react with some degree of discomfort. In fact, if you don’t feel awkward when you’re trying something new, you’re probably not really doing anything differently. Especially if you are to remove something in your life. To move forward you must deal with this sense of loss. It may seem silly, but individuals need to be given a chance to mourn feelings of loss, perhaps just by taking time to talk with others about how they feel.

Also remember that you can only handle so much change.  Although most everyone will experience some resistance to change, some people will be able to get excited about a change more immediately, while others will dread and resist doing anything differently for as long as they can. That’s why you need a clear plan and strategy for focusing your energy on the few things that will net you the greatest results in terms of desired behaviours.

You will be concerned about enough resources.  But don’t worry. Sometimes you’re just paranoid and not looking well enough. Be responsible and realize that you just need to be resourceful.  Thus, you’ll need to focus energy to get more done with fewer resources rather than to get more (and sometimes less) done with more resources.

If you take the pressure off yourself, you may find yourself reverting back to their old behaviour. The relapse is not the problem. Often when we revert back to old behaviours we simply ignore all we have learned and worst we quit. For change to be lasting it must be self-perpetuating. 

Make it happen!

Don’t waste your time on things that won’t make an impact in the next 5 years. Choose a rock that will cause an avalanche. Takes practice and persistence. Starting small things, don’t try to beat the ocean wave.
