Some 300+ days ago, you had plans to do certain things, accomplish some goals like getting a better job, changing your wardrobe, taking that course, marriage, working on your startup and so on. Self assessment shouldn't be a difficult task.
2015 has ended. How productive were you in the year? According to this article on forbes.com, only 8% of people accomplish their goals at the end of the year.
The secret is that the 8% kept their goals tangible and simple.
Notwithstanding, they set their minds to accomplishing their goals. I must admit that I accomplished only 33.3% of my goals this year.
I am not satisfied with the result but I strive to be better next year by working on all setbacks.
How do I keep track of my goals?
Step 1: List the things you wanted to achieve in the year
- Buy a new car
- Buy a new laptop
- Buy a new phone
- Get a new job
- Save 10% of all income
- Read 60 new books
- Work on education (MSc)
- Post 100 new articles on blog
- Upgrade Wardrobe
Step 2: Grade each goal with a grade over 100 (%). While doing this, making an attempt alone is 20% achievement for me, your satisfaction level is up to you to determine.
For Example:
Percentage= (510/900) x 100 = 56.67%
Step 4: List setbacks and work towards achieving untouched goals first in the next year.
Note: The result shouldn't be a criteria for your success level or failure level because I have discovered that humans tend to underestimate the good things life brings to them.
This should be used as a guide to work towards being a better person and getting things done.
For Example:
- Buy a new car - 0%
- Buy a new laptop - 100%
- Buy a new phone - 100%
- Save 10% of income - 50%
- Get a new job - 60%
- Read 60 new books - 40%
- Work on education - 20%
- Post 100 new articles on blog -60%
- Upgrade Wardrobe- 80%
Percentage= (510/900) x 100 = 56.67%
Step 4: List setbacks and work towards achieving untouched goals first in the next year.
Note: The result shouldn't be a criteria for your success level or failure level because I have discovered that humans tend to underestimate the good things life brings to them.
