Know What You Want
7:58:26 2023-09-06 684

1- Define your core values. Write them down, prioritize them, and read them regularly. Then set your goals based on them.



2- Imagine what it could be like in the future. Thinking about future positive and negative possibilities enhances motivation, expectation of successful goal completion, and commitment to self-improvement. Thinking about a positive future helps you imagine a reality where you are the best self you can be, while imagining a negative reality results in an awareness of what might happen if you do not meet your improvement goals.

Imagine a miracle happened overnight and when woke up in the morning you were exactly how you want to be. Everything you wanted to improve about yourself happened in the middle of the night somehow. How are you different? How does it feel? Who is around you? What are you doing? Imagine what it would be like to live life as this completely improved self. Based on what you imagine, you can begin developing goals. Perhaps you imagined yourself as being confident and physically fit. What do you think would have needed to happen for this to occur?



3- Determine what needs improvement and what doesn't. It is important to be specific in your goals, and to know which goals are a top priority.

• Identify your assets (honest, hard-working, loving...etc.) and your liabilities (angry, overweight...etc.). This may help you identify the areas in which you want to make the most improvement.

• Prioritize your list of goals. Rate each goal from 1-10, 10 being the highest priority for you. Focus on this goal first.



4- Get feedback. Receiving feedback about what to improve upon helps individuals' performance on tasks, and enhances goal-achievement. Thus, asking others ways you can improve will help you develop specific goals and motivate you on your journey. • Start by asking your significant other or family members ways they think you can improve yourself. Make sure you only ask individuals whom you trust and those that will take your feelings into consideration (rather than belittling or criticizing you). You might be surprised by their answers.

Talk to a trusted confidante such as a therapist, a religious leader or even a "sponsor" in a 12 step group. Having an outside party helps reduce self-deception and denial. We sometimes have a problem of being either too hard or too soft on ourselves, but talking to others can help us form an accurate picture of ourselves if we are to improve.

• Pick which suggestions you can apply to yourself and to practice those

Suggestions. If a certain set doesn't seem to work, try another! Nothing works for everyone. You need to find what works for you!
