Itβs not enough to have a goal. The secret to executing?
πReverse-engineer goals into habits.
You have to master three stages:
1οΈβ£ Think and scope out a SMART goal
Create clear, achievable objectives with the SMART framework (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound). Boost focus, clarity, and motivation. SMART goals create well-defined objectives and set the foundation for effective planning.
2οΈβ£ Plan and prioritize your time:
Make a comprehensive plan. Break goals into milestones and tasks. Commit to a time-bound routine. Show up consistently. If your goals are SMART, it should be easy to track your progress and adjust your plans as needed.
3οΈβ£ Execute and keep showing up:
Execution is crucial. Stick to the habits established when planning your goal. Donβt rely on your willpower or motivation. Focus on showing up, consistency, and progress over perfection.
π Many think. Few plan. Fewer execute. The difference between those who succeed and those who don't lies in their ability to transition seamlessly from one stage to the next.
Embrace the journey from thinking to planning to execution, and unlock your true potential.
