Goals

What is the key to a good goal?

Is it pie in the sky stretch for all you can stuff or is it to have something that you will achieve and then build on that with the next goal.  Most of us have heard that a goal should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and time bound.

That is a SMART goal.  All goals need to be SMART if you want to achieve success long term.  You may be stuck because you have set your sights too high.  Take a look at your goals and make the proper adjustments.

If you tell yourself you're gonna lose 20 pounds in a month, there's a good chance you'll get bummed out and quit when things don't go as planned. Set reasonable targets, and make small adjustments to start; then work your way up to bigger goals. Be realistic + make changes + stick with them = success!
