How to Make the Time for Your Personal Goals

From Zen Habits:

Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.” - Henry Ford

One of the biggest challenges in trying to accomplish any personal goal is that we tend to put them off until tomorrow, or next week, in favor of more pressing matters at work and home. Unfortunately, tomorrow never gets here.

If you want to accomplish a goal, you have to start on it today...

  1. One goal at a time.
  2. Make sure you really want it.
  3. Make it your top priority.
  4. Reduce your commitments.
  5. Keep it simple.
  6. Stay focused.
  7. Block off time.
  8. Make it your most important appointment.
  9. Show that you’re serious.
  10. Find your time wasters.
  11. Make it a part of your daily or weekly routine.
