The Goals Game 7/22/22

The reason I’ve developed this goals game for myself (and to share) is to train myself to be specific with my goals BUT also to feel a little bit satisfied at even the smallest of accomplishments. The smallest and most mundane tasks or goals are the most powerful and most important one to complete but it is so easy not to give ourselves credit for those if our BIG PROJECT didn’t get completed yet. My goals game helps me stay encouraged and also on track.

S- Specific: A specific goal is much easier to achieve than a general goal. To ensure your goal is specific, you must be able answer the six "W" Questions: Who? What? Which? Why? When? hoW?

Examples:

General Goal: Study more.

Specific Goal: Talk to my teachers and counselors to establish a study schedule for each day of the week.

One of my long-term goals is to build a comprehensive goal setting destination for 7 cup members. (By Bit’s and Pieces as time allows)

Today’s Goal Game
1) Get tractor___________ +20
2) Remove backhoe _____ +20
3) Install Bush hog ______ +20
4) Return tractor ________ +20
5) Start cutting fields _____ +20
Total __________________ 100 Points

There are no mundane tasks in my goal game today because they are not important (to me) today. My general goal is the tractor work and that is taking a lot of spefic goals to get it done in one day. I prioritzed my little mundane goals out of my mind today to focus on the biggie. WISHING MYSELF LUCK. Ready, Set, Go

4:30pm: I've been Pacifying eating, Napping, Watching TV and Sleeping. The kitchen is a mess and my plans for tomorrow are about completely trashed if I do not Activate and Motivate. Caffeine Charisma and an Energy supplement. Ready, Set, Go! Remove back-hoe from tractor for 20 points.

6:30pm: 20 points for removing backhoe. So far I only have a 40% success rate today but I'm going to have a couple of brewskies and clean the kitchen so I don't have to deal with that in the morning and for that I'm going to earn an extra 10 bonus points.

TOTAL SCORE FOR TODAY = 50% 😣
