How are you doing with your New Year’s resolutions or goals for 2025? I hope you are feeling strong about your progress, but if you are struggling, you are not alone. Some estimates indicate that only 10% of people actually achieve their resolutions. There are many reasons people struggle to reach their goals. Let’s look at one of them today.
Sometimes, big goals are hard to reach because there isn’t enough clarity on what the destination will look like. Without this clarity, we don’t even know when we have reached our goal. It’s hard to stay motivated to do something when we don’t know what success will look or feel like. Spending time defining the destination will drive you to meet your big goals. Pick a goal and give it a try.
Questions to Define the Destination (Goal Achievement!)
When your goal is accomplished
- What would be different? What else?
- How will your daily life change?
- How will you feel?
- How will people you know be able to tell that you have reached your goal?
This is an example from a client that created an online breastfeeding course. Her destination for this goal was a web-based course available through her website with individual topics/lessons available for 1 year and secure/private to the user. She was very specific and clear with her destination & also knew when to celebrate her successful launch of the course.
I would love to hear how you defined your goal destination.
