Advice for Setting and Reaching Goals

by Kristen King on January 2nd, 2008

Last year, we kicked off the new year with a series of posts containing tips for goal setting, and this is a good time to review them:

• TIP 1: Tell someone what you’re planning to do and ask them to help you be accountable for that commitment. (post)
• TIP 2: Start small and manageable. Give yourself opportunities for success and satisfaction. (post)
• TIP 3: Convince yourself that you deserve the end result of what you’re resolving to do. (post)
• TIP 4: Write down your goals, and post the list somewhere that you’ll see it all the time and be reminded of exactly what you’re doing for yourself — and why. (post)

Now that you’ve figured out your goals and written them down somewhere, leave a comment and let us know what they are! And then reward yourself with a fun new resolution (one that you should probably break, if yours is anything like the ones I got!.
