I tend to be over ambitious when it comes to setting goals, which means that I never meet them and then feel discouraged for not achieving impossible tasks. I need to keep these characteristics in mind. Thanks again!

Totally agree about project planning. You could chunk your project into small goals and run those small goals through the SMART tool.

In the SMART + tool M is for three levels – Measureable, Manageable and Motivational, satisfying three ego states (Parent, Adult, Child). See http://chrismarr.co.uk for more details.

Thanks,

Chris.

I didn’t know ‘M’ would be motivating. I always knew it was measurable. So I definitely learned something new. You have to set SMART goals, so you would know what to do exactly. If you set a goal that’s very hard to attain, you tend to give up when you think that you cannot attain it in time. Another thing, when planning a project, make it a point to divide it into small goals. If you have workers, delegate some tasks so you don’t have to do everything and they can help you finish it.

I have posted my thoughts using SMART + tool at http://www.chrismarr.co.uk/2011/01/smart-objectives.html.

I guess there are many ways to skin a cat!
