It’s great to have goals. Everyone should make some. However, are your goals detailed enough for you to realistically reach them? For many goals, you have to plan a progression of steps necessary for achievement. Wanting to lose 20 pounds could be an excellent goal, but how are you going to achieve it? Better diet, exercise, sleep? Say you want to run a 5K for the first time. It is not just going to happen overnight. You have to chart a list of stages required to get into this kind of shape. Track your goals. Write them down. Look at them often. Most importantly, hold yourself accountable.
