“ … all it takes to reach a big goal is doing a bunch of little tasks all together.” Last week none of my kids helped with the dishes. I sure am noticing how I am struggling a bit to follow through with the agreements I have made with them. So this episode includes 10 tips on ways to be better at following through, with either great ideas or goals. A few of the tips include, breaking it down into smaller, realistic steps, having fun and incentivizing it somehow. I really want to help my youth develop and work on their personal strength and keeping commitments and following through can help with that. So if you are struggling with remembering to follow through, hopefully this episode can give you a few ideas to keep you going.
Show Notes: Hi Friends! I hope you enjoyed listening to this episode. Below are all the references.
The 10 Tips that I learned this week to help me with follow through
Be honest about what you really want and why?
Take one thing at a time to work on
Clear, realistic and break down your goals.
How can I make it easier and more fun - Habit stacking
Incentivize it somehow
Manage your energy not necessarily your time
Understand the sacrifice
Be ok with being uncomfortable and for me that is also being ok that we are always a work in progress and not robots too
Have a deadline
Accountability partner or a regular check in or meeting to make sure things are getting done.
