Assalamualaikum and hello everyone!!! Welcome to my new blog🌺. Salam UITM dihatiku! Salam Khazanah Alam! As always I hope you are in a good health. Firstly, let me introduce myself.

I hope everyone will get impressive information from my blog and I hope you love it !!!😉

In this blog, I will talk about a new topic which is 'Goal Setting'.

 

WHAT IS GOAL SETTING ?



Goal setting can look different depending on an individual’s lifestyle, values and definition of success. Your goals are unique to you and don’t need to look like anyone else’s. 

The classic goal-setting definition boils down to the process of identifying something you want to accomplish and establishing measurable objectives and timeframes to help you achieve it. Goal setting can help you in any area of your life, from achieving financial freedom to adopting a healthy diet. When you learn how to set goals in one area of your life, it becomes easier to set them in other areas. 

Setting progressive goals that allow small wins helps you move on to larger achievements. These small goals lead to progress, which is the only thing you really need to feel fulfilled and happy.


WHAT IS GOAL SETTING IMPORTANT ?



Goal setting is the fundamental key to success. Whether it’s increasing your intelligence, learning a new skill or rekindling a relationship, setting goals lets us create our future. It also helps us grow and expand, pushing ourselves to transform in ways that we never imagined. In order to feel fulfilled, we need to know and feel like we’re working to achieve something. Tony Robbins says, “Progress equals happiness,” and setting goals gets us there. 

Effective goal setting lets you measure progress, overcome procrastination and visualize your dreams. If you don’t know what you want to accomplish, you can’t create a plan to get there. Setting goals is the vehicle that will drive you to your desired destination. 

Goal setting also keeps you accountable. Whether you’re learning how to set goals at work or in your personal life, telling others about your goals makes you more likely to establish the patterns that will accomplish them. 

Here we’ll cover how to set goals to ensure you achieve them. You’ll learn what makes a compelling goal as well as the steps you need to take to see them through.


HOW TO SET GOALS ?



What is goal setting to you? When you set goals, are you used to seeing them disappear in the rearview mirror? We’re willing to bet if you’re reading this page, you’ve set a goal or two in your life. But did you see them through? 

You’re much more likely to put time and energy into something that excites you, so your goals must reflect that same level of momentum. Think of a goal as a dream with a deadline. Now all we have to do is create a blueprint to achievement.


SMART GOAL 

1. Specific - The more specific you are, the more clear your steps will be to get there 
2. Measurable - How are you going to track your improvements and success ? 
3. Achievable - Make a plan. Dreams become goals when there are plans attached to it 
4. Relevant- Make sure your goal is still something you want to be working on. 
5. Timely- Know how much time you need to accomplish your goal.


HOW TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS ?



1. VISUALIZE YOUR GOALS 
Where focus goes, energy flows, so it’s critical to focus on your goals. Visualization is one powerful way to do this. When you visualize your goals on a daily basis as if you’ve already achieved them, you align your purpose and values with your actions. Everyone from star athletes to entrepreneurs uses visualization as well as practices like vision boards to help with goal setting. You can even tape images of your goals on the mirror in your bathroom or pin them to the wall next to your computer. If your goals involve adopting a healthy diet and losing weight, put them on the front of your refrigerator or a kitchen cabinet. 

2. KEEP YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE 
Find a friend, family member or another person you trust and share your list of goals with them. You can also share the list with a mentor or life coach. Sharing your list will make you more accountable and give you a partner who will work with you through frustrations or roadblocks. The right partner can help you transform obstacles into opportunities and stay on track. 

3. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS 
Have a set schedule to review both short- and long-term goal setting. This helps you track progress as well as determine what activities are helping you and which are hindering you. It’s important to know when you need to make alterations to your course. As Tony says, “Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.” Don’t lose sight of your ultimate goal, but remember that life is happening for you, not to you

4. CELEBRATE YOUR SUCCESSES 
Goal setting doesn’t have to be a boring set of tasks to check off. When you’re planning your goals, include ways to celebrate your successes. If you’re working toward financial freedom, set aside a budget for a nice dinner when you reach a certain goal. Celebrate relationship milestones. Got that promotion? Share it with the world and celebrate. It will help you stay focused – while also being present in the moment. 

Why is goal setting important? Imagine yourself older and looking back. What’s the pain from not achieving, and what is the pleasure from having achieved your goals? Effective goal setting helps you stay focused, keeps you accountable and is the single most important aspect of reaching your dreams.
