Remember: 
  • Choose a single goal that is action-focused and measurable--and track yourself.
  • Tell someone!  Sharing your goal increases your commitment.
  • Think carefully through the barriers (real-world and your own negative thoughts) that have stopped you from succeeding in the past.
  • Look for the benefits!  Pay attention to the way that working towards your goal makes you feel.  ​ ​
