There is
just 1 main purpose mantra you must remember in order to motivate yourself in
DOING this & it is simple
"Goal
Reflection = Wisdom for future goal creating!"
When to do this is NOW, majority of us seem to do
it in the new Year but the New Year should be a time of not looking back but
looking forward, starting fresh & CREATING new Goals for the new
year!
This week I have done my own goal reflection I
share what goals I have reached, not reached & so close to reached (I am
not perfect but I am honest!) I also talk about the strengths & weakness of
each goal. Click the link to watch
Time spent on this should only take 15mins-30mins
this time of year is about relaxing, spending time with family & enjoying a
break! However spending NO time on doing this can allow negative feelings about
the new year, poor goal creating for the new year & lack of motivation for
the new year and this is totally not the way to perceive a New Year and new
goals!
Below
are 4 Steps on how to Goal Reflect
Step 1-
Tools- Pen, Paper & your Mind
Easy, not expensive & we all have each them so
no excuses. These three tools have to work in sync just thinking about your
past goals is called "thoughts" great first step but putting pen to
paper allows the perception of "looking on the outside in”. The lovely
Lauren our love your goal guru (http://goals2breached.com.au/lovely-lauren/)
she quotes the following about putting pen to paper
“it means that you send the
thought process through your neurology in such a way to tell your pen what to
write. This is a different experience as to when you are typing its more
powerful for your unconscious and conscious mind. With some research too, hand
writing allows for a particular process in the brain to function which is
called ‘Spatial Relations’ this means our mind prioritizes what is important
emotionally to us and creates meaning to what we write”
Step 2- Open
the door to Honesty
“
It’s a puzzling thing. The truth knocks on the door & you say ‘go away, I’m
looking for the truth’& it goes away. Puzzling?”
quoted by Robert M.Pirsig. Funnily enough this is true in order to achieve the
best results of goal reflecting is to listen to the knock and be sure to answer
it! How to be honest can’t be taught or shown how to do but try to remember
these two things about being honest with this goal reflecting
·
It is private, once you have done this goal
reflection you are not obliged to show or tell anyone (unless you want to like
I did!) it is just you, a pen, paper and your mind so no-one is judging you.
·
Whilst being honest with yourself always be kind to
yourself no-one is perfect & that is not the aim of goal reflecting try to
say to yourself “ I am not perfect but opening the door to honesty is allowing
to seek the truth of my goal journey lessons” that is exactly what it is
learning!
3) Write,
Write, Write
Okay so you have step 1 & step 2 all set to go now
it is action time here is what you can write for your Goal Reflection.
Name the Goal, if it was reached/almost reached/not
reached, how the goal made you feel, s below are a few examples
“
Running Goal to 80- REACHED! The goal
was the best goal reached for 2013 I felt focused & the results gave better
fitness creating extra focus which was the strength of this goal. Weakness of
this goal even though reached was that close to the end just running for myself
I became a little bored”
“Speaking
5 Langue’s of love to Hubby & Children- Only half reached do not feel
completely reached. I attempted this goal but believe that I made the goal to
big making it a huge weakness. It needed to be more specific and only focusing
on love language at time seems more reachable. The strength however with this
goal is that it has created the motion of discovering that the love language of
quality time for my family is quiet strong”
As you can see it does not have to be grammatically
correct, long or short & not written out perfect. It is just like journal
writing but for goal reflection you are just making sure that you state the
goal, your feelings around the goal, strengths, weakness & where you got to
with the goal allows you to make discoveries of hidden goal wisdom!
4) Keep
your Goal Reflection close by
Once you have done this keep your findings in a
safe place because now that you have done this goal reflection you can pull out
your writings and read over them when you are creating your New Goals for a New
year!
Taking the 15-30min to do this Goal Reflection you
will find that you feel these three awesome goal feelings

What are you waiting for now is the time to do your
