Be sure to keep track of your goals to see your progress. While meeting your goals be sure to have rewards along the ways.

  • Goals must be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-related.
  • To reach goals for yourself and your organization, effective goals must be broken down into smaller pieces.
  • Use positive statements to direct a way to affirm your commitment to completing your goals.
  • Set priorities to determine the criteria you will use to determine if and how well the goals are to be met.
  • Include a time frame for completion, such as goals for employees or virtual professionals who perform routine processing functions. Are more goals more time-sensitive than others?
  • Keep your incremental goals small.
  • Make use of a journal to track all your goals to keep you motivated to continue your progress.
