The key is not to beat ourselves up, but re-align our goals and move on. You are spot on with keeping your goals relevant to your learning, as those goals that are closest to our values, will be most achievable (and fun)!

I think some people make plans that are just too grand and sweeping, then they set themselves up to fail as these resolutions are not realistic.
Great article and very timely Elaine :)

You demonstrate the need for a goal and process of how to achieve that with your 3 point plan - easy and doable.
Perhaps grandeur allows us sweep our way to unrealistic goals, and ultimately the fast slide to the bottom...

Delighted to hear of your success. Achievable doesn't mean they are easy, it means they are realistic and you really want to succeed, well done!

Thanks for sharing your post - it sure helps to document things, as we are such a forgetful race, and easily forget wins, successes and achievements we have made throughout the year - or even that we WERE in fact more charitable, more active or less negative.
How do we know we have been successful? Only by documenting :)
Well done!
