5 Tips for Sticking to Your Personal Goals

ByNausheen Farishta

Happy New Year! By now, you’ve likely set some goals, new year’s resolutions or intentions for yourself. Do you swear this year will be different? Will be the year you stick with your ambitions the whole year through? It’s easier said than done, so in this episode I’m sharing 5 tips to increase your chances of success and to help you stay committed to your goals. This episode digs deeper into these 5 tips:

  1. Schedule regular check ins for yourself
  2. Be realistic about how you ‘time-bound’ your goals
  3. Find opportunities to practice habit stacking
  4. Know the purpose and ensure relevancy in your goals
  5. Have grace for yourself and allow conscious shifts to occur

I also share a ‘bonus tip’ regarding how I set an intention for each year and why I find that easier to stick with! If you haven’t already, take some time to listen to last week’s episode on reflection questions to evaluate where you’ve been before committing to what’s up ahead.
