Project Achieve Your Goals
Setting goals is the easy part...reaching them can be more challenging!
Having someone support you in reaching your personal goals can be incredibly helpful. Today, wed like to announce a new community program aimed at helping you reach your goals.
Well need both listeners & members to make this happen! Here is how you can get involved in this project:
Members:
Step 1: Post a goal youd like to work towards in this thread. Be specific! Goals work great when you can make them measurable. Usually that involves a time period and a number of times. Additionally, you want to start by making goals achievable. Do not make your goals too hard or you will grow frustrated and not be able to reach them. Much better to make them easy to accomplish to build your confidence right from the start.
Examples:
I want to cook dinner for myself 3 nights per week
I want to go to the gym 1 time per week
Take 3 growth path steps every day
Step 2: Specify if you'd like a listener to check in on you 1 or 2x/week.
Step 3: Wait for a listener to reply to you! They will reply and let you know they will support you reach this goal.
Step 4: PM this listener to get going! They will not be able to support you by checking in on you if you do not first PM them. If you find that a listener has not followed up, then please post again and request another listener.
Step 5: Post your progress each week >>in this thread<< and also on your feed so more people can support you in achieving your goals.
Listeners:
Step 1: Wait for members to share their goals in this thread! When you see a goal/member youd like to support*, reply to their forum post and let them know!
* Please make sure you can support the member based on age group, ie. Adults with Adults, Teens with Teens. Only Adult-Teen Listeners can chat with both *
Step 2: Once this member has messaged you and established connection over PM, its your job to better understand the members goal, why its important and what you can do to best support them.
Step 3: Make a commitment! Check-in with this member twice per week and enquire about the goal!
Step 4: Let us know how you and your member are doing! >>In this thread<<, we will track your progress as team. Post here to let us know how it's going!
I want to be able to get out of bed
@Autterbox
I dont know ur story but i know how u feel. I often have times when its hard to get out of bed not just cause of my physical illness but my mental. Just take it slow and with every baby step u will make great process. Good Luck and I wish U well
My goals:
1) Help with study routine and motivation.
Plus I want someone to whom I'd remain accountable if I did study or not. Because 70% of the stress in my Life stems from not studying and not managing my time.
2)I want to start Reading. Like novels etc. I have never ever read a single novel.
I have a crush over someone who is way intelligent and genius. He is smart too. I was told he wants his partner to be much smarter. And what I have inferred fromy own self is that I am not smart at all.
I am completely a failure. And a loser.
3)I want to get organized. Like my life is just a mess. No motivation. No happiness. No hobby. No outdoor activity. No exercise. No enjoyment except a severe strong addiction of using Internet and procrastination.
4) I know if I just get a little serious about my life, my ambitions etc. I can live way happier. But I am lazy and unfocused.
5) Sometimes I find that I have a crush over a wrong person. I don't know if it is so or not. I feel I just waste time thinking ab8 him. But he has got over my nerves. His single message can make my day. But he is five years older than me. I have whole lot of years of Education in front of me, so I feel that he won't ever be mine. And I am wrong in thinking that he will be my partner.
6) I am brought up by a single mother. So our financial status is not much strong. So I have a big responsibility of establishing the family. I need guidance and help regarding my career.
I hope the other person who is going to help will be serious in doing so. I am already sad and stressed. And I waste each day of my life :(
@faithfulLemon9413 Hey I hope you find someone! Be strong! I can tell you having an accountability partner really helps! Start with small, doable goals. Never give up even if you might miss a couple day. The point of this is not PERFECTION--- nope, that cannot be further away from the truth! The point of this is PERSISTENCE!!! Always come back and try again! Get that accountability partner, either here for from another website (which does not incorporate the emotinoal support aspect) like getmotivatedbuddies.com/ or focusmate.com! I can promise you, an accountability partner makes it SO MUCH easier, it's almost a miracle! I wish to success!
My goal is to study harder and be motivated to do all the works.
I'd like to smile more. Circumstances really stink, but that doesn't mean I can be happy, right? I'd love to find someone to help me. Maybe a sponsor? 🤓
My goals:
- find a job
- find a partner
- stop being poor
- finally find a place to live on my own
- find a partner
- make Some friends
- have a baby before its too late
- find any hobby that I actually like
- get more selfconfidence
@Elysia1985
I am willing to help you if you would like me to.
@DanaMH thank you for your reply. I
@Iduno
I am willing to help you if you would like me to.
@DanaMH I'd love too!
My goal is to become a better Mom, to be able to provide for him and to find proper happiness throughout the rest of the year.
My goal is to find a goal. I know, sounds weird. Right now I'm just existing, like a ship in the middle of the ocean floating in whatever direction the wind blows it. I'd like to have a direction to head, a destination.
I have listed 10 things for myself for today. My goal is to execute these things.
I've already posted a goal, but I'd like to post more goals and have another accountability partner so here goes.
Major goal: to maintain health despite a chaotic life.
Steps:
-Get to bed by 12 AM every day.
-Get up by 7:30 AM every day.
-Do some form of exercise for 15 minutes after I get up.
-Remember to perform my skin care routine twice per day (I've always been neglecting this and my skin)
-Drink at least 1.5 litters of water per day.
I see that listener and I should check in with each other 1-2x per week. I plan to check in every day and report whether or not I've accomplished my goals. Listener needs not reponding to me daily (TO ANYONE WHO'S READING THIS, I'D LIKE TO TELL YOU: IT'S NOT ABOUT BEING PERFECT. IT'S ABOUT BEING PERSISTENT. PERSISTENCE IS WHAT GUARANTEES TO GET YOU THERE, NOT VISION OF PERFECTION (needless to say, perfection is impossible, period)).
Also, since I'm in quite a balanced place in my life, if my listener would like an accountability partner for his/her own I WOULD GLADLY RETURN THE FAVOR!!!
