Set and Achieve Goals with Science: My 2021 Action Planning Method
I am not setting goals this year. I am setting ACTIONS.
Actions speak louder than words, so instead of having vague goals for 2021, try directing your focus to the actions you can take everyday to make really change. Our goals require us to change our behaviours and create new habits in order for them to be achieved - something which is no easy feat. To create new habits, your brain has to physically strengthen connections between neurons which takes months of consistent effort. Therefore, having actionable goals which you can perform regularly should allow these new default behaviours to be created. The way I make this action plan is in 6 steps using scientifically proven methods to increase goal-directed performance - such as making goals specific and difficult - and trying to understand the challenges I will face in the future when trying to instil these new behaviours. So if you want to make strides towards your "ideal self" in 2021, give this a go!
Happy New Year!
