At the beginning of a new year, I like to think about my goals and start laying the foundation for what it will take to achieve them.
Push myself harder to drop weight? On paper, the playbook should be easy: Increase my weekly cardio, increase the amount of healthy lunches, and decrease the amount of junk food I eat on the couch watching TV at night. Or conquer a big work project that will pay career dividends for years to come? Use that as a focal point for the day-to-day, talking to all the right stakeholders about what it will take to bring the vision to life.
But what’s important for actually achieving big goals is actually focusing on them. Too often, we let these big goals slip away or take the backseat to smaller ones.
I’m my own worst enemy when it comes to putting pressure on myself to get a goal to the finish line. I’m not afraid of big goals, as long as they have achievable milestones on the way. I like to think about conquering goals with a road trip mentality: The destination is just an end point, the time spent along the way is just as important for perspective and growth.
The key is to minimize distractions and noise in other parts of life. The key is to find my chill, relax, and focus, without being too hard on myself.
Helping me with this journey of chill?
