Day 6 – Setting Goals
Setting goals is great to give us focus.
If you believe change is possible and that God wants to help you in this, then you are ready to set some goals.
Your goals might be to change some habits, with no specific, measurable goal in the end. Or you might have a specific goal with a timeline in mind. In that case, you might start with the long term goal and break it down into habits or regular actions steps.
Can I encourage you not to set too many goals.
Just set a few, perhaps ones that might have the biggest impact on your life and that potentially overflow into many areas of your life. You can work on the others later.
The goal of praying daily, will have an incredible impact on your life, if you don’t already pray each day. Or perhaps the goal of exercising a certain amount of times a week will have great impact (chat with your doctor if you need to).
Think big (metanoia) and implement small regular steps.
Put those goals somewhere you will see regularly and if helpful, tell someone who might help keep you accountable.
