Happy New Month Dear Blog Bestie, our first blog for the month is on the first. Yayyyyyyyyyyyy🥳🥳🥳🥳. How are you feeling about this new month? Are your goals set already or is it still in the oven cooking😅?
Most times, I talk about setting SMART GOALS for the month, year, or week. Today, I am sharing some tips I recently learned from Pastor Bisola Badejo’s YouTube page Click to go to her page on how to set your goals and create a system that would allow you to smash your smart goals.
Every month my friend (Emediong) and I would send our goals for the month to each other to keep ourselves accountable and while I saw that I was just setting goals and not giving myself a realistic action plan to smash those goals, in the end of the month, I find myself not completing all my goals.
I came across Pastor Bisola Badejo’s page from a WhatsApp status and after watching the video, I decided to implement what I got to my next month’s goal setting and planning. You must already be wondering what exactly she said, and with no further ado, I will be going straight to what she said and shared.
The first tip to effectively smash your Smart Goal is to segment each of your goals into different areas of your life. What this means is that when you are setting your goal, share it in different areas or aspects of your life. Let me make an illustration; if you have some goals you want to achieve for this month, let’s say you want to be better in your relationship with God, you want to gain more knowledge and the like. What you should do is identify those goals whether they fall into your personal goal, career goal, or spiritual goals. That is what segmenting your goals should be like.
So let’s say for this month in my spiritual life, I could say I want to know more about God or know more about a topic in the Bible or to live a more consecrated life, and then in my personal goal or career goal, I could say I want to build my mindset, I want to be more knowledgeable. Segmenting your goals into different aspects of your life gives you a holistic view of your growth journey.
The Second tip is to divide your goals into milestones, work packages, and deliverables. Doing this would help you not become overwhelmed in the middle of the month or if the goal is for the year, you won’t get frustrated in the middle of the year. Doing this also allows you to take one step at a time to achieve your smart goals. Milestone is like, I want to lose a particular weight, then the work packages for that goal could be, research on how to lose weight, setting a new timetable for dieting, and registering in a gym. Your deliverables are the things you start doing to achieve the major goal and that is dieting, and going to the gym you registered at.
The Third Tip to effectively smash your smart goals is to be intentional and realistic. After writing or putting down all that you want to achieve, you need to ensure that your deliverables or work packages are included in your to-do list every day.
These are basically the three tips to help you effectively smash your smart goals this month. We have got to be smashing our goals 🥳🥳. Before you go, I started my YouTube Channel in July and if you haven’t subscribe yet, please do so click and subscribe
