I set goals and achieving them is fundamental to us, however we’re often out of our scope when it comes to preparing goals other than get up from the couch to the fridge and stuff your face, that is a goal I struggle to say no to maybe you’ve got other goals.
Goal setting equation. G = a(x)
Me, yesterday.
So to enable your ‘a’ (activities or.. ass) to be a function of ‘x’lets go through three steps on how you can reach your goals.
SMART goals are great, I have nothing against them and they have helped people at least a couple decades to make achievements. But just because it is called a SMART goal does not give it the right to say its the best, its just a SMART acronym, shit. Anyway, PPP is the way you need to look at your goals, not as something you have to achieve but something that you’ve already accomplished.
- Passion. It does not matter what you are doing, whatever the goal is, if you do not chase it with unconstrained enthusiasm then why is it on your list of goals, drop it and make better use of your time, chase it with enthusiasm.
- Persistence. Second, enthusiasm or motivation or whatever you want to call your passion will curve, you’ll get so sick of it you wont want to proceed and will find excuses to get yourself out your goals. What is important is that you continue to build and develop towards your goal, keep building the channels that are parallel to where you want the water so that the lake can flow freely towards that new low area (where you want to be).
- Patience. Reflective of both of the above you must have patience with yourself and with the process. Artists never get to reap the rewards of their art because it only becomes extremely valuable when they pass, your patience must be generational, like a stone. If you lose your patience when things don’t go your way for a year, or three, but continue to use passion and persistence you don’t have a reason to be impatient you body will leave the earth but it is up to you to make your work last for eternity.
