Hallie Bulkin walks through SMART-style goals: specific, measurable, relevant, and time-bound. She recommends monthly reviews to reassess and pivot, and stresses celebrating small wins to keep momentum going.
You want to set smart goals. And I was like, I'm not going to do an episode on smart goals. So I'm not going to do an episode on smart goals. But make them specific, make them measurable, make sure they're retrievable, make sure it's relevant and make sure they're time bound. Okay, you can google smart goals and get all kinds of information. You want to do regular reviews, so you want to kind of do monthly check ins with yourself to assess your progress to your goals so that you can adjust if needed. Nothing is ever set in stone. You may need to adjust. That is okay. Learn how to pivot. Pivoting is a beautiful thing. And then celebrate milestones like don't forget to celebrate achievements. No matter how teeny tiny, itty bitty small they feel. It really, it boosts your own morale. It, it'll motivate you to continue pushing forward. Celebrations are important. Even if it's just you celebrating in whatever way you want to celebrate yourself without anybody else. Make sure that you celebrate the achievements that you, you know, like I said, every little goal, every little step that you achieve along the way.
