Now that you know what categories in your Wellness Wheel are low, you have an idea of where you should focus your short-term goals. If you are low in all areas, we suggest you start with mindfulness/self-confidence and see how it affects the other areas.
Specific
This is about making sure your goal isn’t too vague, but instead, represents exactly what you plan to accomplish.
Measurable
This requirement assures that you can actually see and follow your progress in order to move in the right direction through quantitative means.
Attainable/Achievable
This refers to goals you can actually achieve in the time frame allotted. Having a goal to lose 50 pounds in one week would be an unattainable goal.
Realistic
This refers to having a goal that you’re both willing and able to achieve.
Time-bound (or Timely)
This is all about making sure you have an end-date in mind; a goal to find a new job that fits the lifestyle you want isn’t really a goal unless you set a date by which you’d like to accomplish it. This will hold you accountable.
Example: I will make one homemade meal every day by the last week of this course.
Example: I will incorporate more physical activity: 30-60 minutes 3 times a week by week two.
Example: I will wake up, read my “why,” and think of one thing I am grateful for every morning starting tomorrow.
Tip: In order to be successful with your goals, we recommend that you create three action plans for each goal, made up of what we call "Daily Wins." These daily wins will be specific things that you incorporate on a daily basis to help you achieve each of your GOALS.
SMART GOAL:
I will wake up in the morning with 50% more energy by the end of this course.
Daily Wins:
Your #1 goal and the two to three "Daily Wins" you plan on incorporating each day to accomplish this goal.
Sharing this with others will help you establish accountability and stay on track!
