    Resolutions, Desires, Goals

    The second Friday of January is known as "Quitter's Day" because 80% of people who have made a new year's resolution will throw in the towel by that day. In this episode we want to help equip you and your spouse to make measurable goals you can achieve! Show notes: S.M.A.R.T.E.R. GOALS What gets written down gets done! ✓ S – Specific Not: “lose weight” but, “lose 15 pounds.” ✓ M – Measurable I currently weigh 170 pounds; I will weigh 155 pounds. ✓ A – Actionable/Achievable Not: “I will work out each week,” but “I will follow a plan that is both aerobic and anaerobic and do it five days a week.” ✓ R – Risky/Realistic Not easy, not crazy, but risky. Give yourself a challenge. As difficulty goes up, performance goes up. ✓ T – Time-Keyed I will lose weight by March 15 th . Make your actionable items specific: “I will work out at 7:00am Monday – Friday at the gym or in the basement.” ✓ E – Exciting/Evaluate Have a WHY, something that will keep getting you up in the morning to press ahead. Does this goal inspire me? Does it engage my heart? Do I need to evaluate it and adjust it, because circumstances have changed? ✓ R – Relevant/Rewrite - A goal should align with your season of life, your values, and your other goals. - Sometimes you will need to rewrite a goal, so it corresponds with your life. - Set no more than 3-5 goals per year. Have a mix of short-term and long-term goals. - Completing short-term goals will motivate and encourage you in your long-term goals. - Consider habit goals and achievement goals. - Areas of life to consider setting goals in: Finances, Health (physical and emotional), - Spiritual, Fitness, Travel, Relationships (marital, family, friends, social), Employment, etc. Step Into Chaos is a 501(c)(3), Public Charity.
