Set short term, quantifiable goals. A goal should be attainable in 90 days - no longer. Longer term goals are great, but set short term goals so that you see progress and you don't lose focus. Next, the goal has to be quantifiable or measurable. Instead of saying, "I want to lose weight this year." Be specific. "I want to lose 20 pounds in 90 days." Or, I want to be a size X, in 90 days (losing two dress sizes is realistic in 90 days).
Next, tell supportive people who will help keep you accountable to your short term goal. Last time I checked your refrigerator can't keep you accountable, so stop posting your goals there! Create a support network. No sense in telling those who don't support or understand your goal, they will only sabotage your efforts.
Get going, goals don't acheive themselves!
