1) Set only one goal at a time.
一次一个目标
When you try take on too much at once, you can become overwhelmed quickly. Instead of trying to tackle three or four goals try to prioritize them. Create a list and take one goal at a time. Once you achieve that goal, back to your list mark it off, and move to the next one. The act of marking off the goals and achieving them individually will give you a greater sense of accomplishment. You can even break the one goal done into smaller parts. This gives you motivation and success more often than waiting for days or months to achieve a larger goal. 一次想做太多的事情,你会很快变得手忙脚乱。不要试图一次完成三、四个目标,要将它们优先化。作一份目标清单,一次取其中一个目标。一旦成功实现后,从你的清单上把它划掉,继续下一个。这种“划”目标、逐个实现的办法会给你更多成就感。 甚至你还能把一个目标分化成数个“小目标”。这比等上数天或数月实现一个“大”目标能获得更多动力和成就感。
For example, let us say you want to lose thirty pounds in 45 days. Break the goal down weekly to losing about five pounds a week. You can make up a calendar and mark off the week as you achieve your weekly goal. If you did not achieve your goal that week, adjust the other weeks according and still give yourself credit for what you did achieve. 比如:你想用45天减肥30磅。 将这一目标划分为每周减大约5磅。你可以创建一份日历,每周实现了目标,就将这一周划去。如果没按周实现目标,那么可以调整到后面数周,这样过去的成绩仍会获得认可。
