Establishing goal thinking starts with creating a good goal

Creating a good goal involves doing three things.

  1. write the goal down. A goal that is not written down is a goal that is not there and will soon be left behind.
  2. describe the goal objectively. It is easy to tell if it has been reached.

  1. Set deadlines for reaching your goals. Giving ourselves a deadline will force us to keep taking action instead of procrastinating.

Translate goals into specific weekly/daily actions

Second, translate goals into specific weekly/daily actions A small task that needs to be completed today is far more motivating to accomplish than a large goal months from now. Breaking down big goals into small tasks is what allows us to put aside procrastination and fear and be more motivated to perform.

Always observe the progress of the target

The daily actions we take to complete tasks in the goal map, and the record of using the task timer, will generate different dimensions of statistics.

Each day, each week, and even each month, the completion of goals can be seen at a glance, the time spent on different goals can be tracked, and the completion status of different time periods can be compared to provide a basis for review.

Adjust the plan according to the data

When we find that we are behind on some of our goals, or that our day is too full and we don't have time to perform some tasks, we need to adjust our plan to make it more responsive to the pace of our lives. Executing the plan perfectly is not the most important thing; accomplishing something that would have been difficult to accomplish is the small victory that needs to be focused on.

Creating a sustainable plan requires constant adjustments so that we are more motivated to stick to it. Common scenarios for the use of goal maps.
