THE New Year is here once more and many people will be busy determining what they really want and need.
However, many of us do not accomplish our goals and are left with some of the same ones for the next year.
 |
| Are you sure about those goals? |
And, they are often baffled as to the reason why. Knowing the answer to these questions may help you to determine the reasons why.
How do I feel about my goal?
When you think about accomplishing your goal, do you feel excited, happy or do you suddenly feel sad and depressed? If it's the latter, maybe you should give your goal some more thought.
Do I really want what I am trying to obtain?
When we are confused about what we want, sometimes we are unable to attract what we really would like to have into our lives.
Perhaps you like the way it looks or what it represents. But nothing about what you want to have is what you thought or hoped it would be.
Am I setting a realistic goal?
We are not always cut out for what we think we are. For example, someone who thinks they want a very attractive mate may not be able to handle the competition for their affection.
Or someone who has no talent as a dancer, may not be able to start a career as a dancer as an adult if he hasn't been practicing since an early age.
What will be the best route for accomplishing my goals?
'Should I go back to school, or could I volunteer', is what you should be thinking about if your goal is to get a good job. If you would like to get married, it is a good idea to talk to married couples.
How do I expect to feel once I accomplish my goal?
Do you think you will be happier, more self-confident, or needed?
You want always feel the way you think you will feel after you accomplish your goals and if so the emotional state can be short lived.
But this doesn't mean that you don't need or can't be satisfied with what you have.
What do I expect to happen once I accomplish my goals?
Do you expect to make a lot of money, meet lots of new friends, or have more time to relax? And, are you being realistic in what you think the end results of your hard effort will be.
Talking to other people who have accomplished the same goals will give you some idea about what to expect.
