Taking the fist step to making your goals a reality!


In my last post I said that I was going to talk about goals a little more in my next post, so here I am! I think goals are a great thing. If you want to make your goals a reality the first thing you need to do is write them out! You also need to be real when you make your goals. Don't put the stress of making 25 different goals, because in reality with all the day to day tasks you have to do you are only going to be able to work on a few. I made this mistake at the beginning of 2015. I said I was going to work on so many different things and in reality I got super overwhelmed and gave up on all of them leaving myself in the same position I was three months ago, starting from the beginning again. I created a printable guiding to help me set my goals that you can get on my easy page https://www.etsy.com/shop/BecomingBradley?ref=hdr_shop_menu. I wanted it to be free but easy won't let you price thing for free anymore so I made it the lowest I could of .20 cents. (On a side note I hate downloading or buying things from places that don't have a reliable background so that is the reason I put them on etsy. I figured paying .20 cents is worth the product and knowing the fact that your information is in good hands and that you are not going to get a virus.) 

In the printable I have outlined out a place for you to write 5 main thing that you want to work on or change for the better. There are also 5 boxes, one for each main thing where you will turn that basic main idea into a measurable goal along with 3 step you need to take to make them possible. Last but not least there is a box to write some motivation for when you feel like it is not worth it anymore! It also comes in 4 fun colors!

To help give you an idea bout what some possible goals can be I will list my goals below!
