Goals

Your goal should be specific as possible.
- this will make you to build plans to achieve them
  - which leads to achieve the goal

Types_of_goals

avoid trying to achieve many goals at once https://youtu.be/CrtR12PBKb0 ^64bbd6
bigger goals are more achievable than small goals
Frustration is good
break the goals in to mini goals
- be as specific as on that mini goals
12 week time frame is the best to achieve a goal.
- in that 12 week window define how much time per week you allocate each then daily.
- write them with a pen and pencil (it reinforce the process)
- don’t wait untill the inspiration to land on you. do that thing on the specific day regardless of how you feel https://youtu.be/CrtR12PBKb0?t=2569

if you see the goal more times on your day (sticky notes, vision bodes) it will increase the likelyhood of achieving that goal. this is a myth. because we get adopted to our environment .
- instead write that thing everyday and put in a different place. you have to change the place each and everyday
accountability- if you tell others that you are gong to do something it will increase the likelyhood of achieve that. this is also a myth. because it gives some kind of pleasure by telling others and it will decrease our motivation. (keep that goal to urself)
- accountability buddy is a different thing. it works

Do I want to achieve this goal ? Do I want to do the things that is required to achieve that goal? Do I want to do this thing today? - if your answer is ‘yes’ - spend 1-5 minutes visualizing the positive outcome - if your answer is ‘no’ - spend 1-5 minutes visualizing the failure, server consequences. think how that failure would feel like

people only have motivation at the start and end(or near end) of the goal
- best way to overcome is to break the middle part into another few small chunks

adopt to that rythm https://youtu.be/CrtR12PBKb0?t=5104
- 3 times in the day we have most amount of focus
  - 30 minutes after waking up
  - 3 hours after waking up
  - 11 hours after waking up
our feeling about today is depends on how well we did on last day and how we feel about tomorrow https://youtu.be/CrtR12PBKb0?t=5425
