I have a goal that I really want to accomplish.  I can’t do it in a day or month or probably a year.  It may take 2 to 3 years.  I found myself not working this goal with the same momentum as goals more achievable on shorter terms.  That is probably the human nature side of accomplishment. 

Well — I reaffirmed my three year goal as being very important to me when accomplished.  I have reaffirmed and dedicated daily time 15 – 30 minutes to stay on task. I haven’t missed a day this year.  

 My reaffirmation of this goal was easy.  The hard part was not having a very easy to use measurement tool to follow progress.  As much as I hate to admit this, I have a really good tracking system for my goals and accomplishments in life but not a really good tracking system for something new.  I was half heartedly tracking progress but nothing really jumped out to me saying — Hey, you are not on track here.  Now I have a spread sheet that shows Green when on track and Red when off track.

Do you have a measurement system for your important Goals?

I found some old calendars from years ago.  When I wanted to start and follow a goal (Weight, Exercise, Playing the Banjo, Etc.).  I kept the Calendar in a drawer in the bathroom.  I opened that drawer everyday (My hair dryer was in it), and I plotted my daily goal progress. 

Looking back on those calendars I see that I accomplished many life goals.  Do you have a tracking method daily to follow your progress?

Make 2019 your best year yet!
