As humans we all have our differences ranging from gender, background, size and how we see things and analyze everything around us.
it's always different for everyone either here on hive or offline and in any situation we find ourselves in, we deal with it in our own best possible way.
This post should normally be my goals and plans for the year, but no, it won't be, It's easy to set a target mentally and make plans to achieve them, then we never get to even make it halfway.
How sure are you about that goal of yours, how do you deal with the pressure or maybe lack of motivation, if there's none felt within you then are you always motivated 365days a year? I guess not, its different for everybody but here's a rough research done, might not be 100% true or accurate tho
According to the University of Scranton, a whopping 92 percent of people who set New Year's goals never actually achieve them. You can count me in that group.
I'm definitely one of those 92% without much ado.
WHAT WENT WRONG?
How does our conscious mind deviate from our well planned goals for the year or within a set time frame ranging from Q1-Q4.
Setting financial goals ,personal development goals and trying be a better version of yourself everyday is something I believe you and I yearn for, but how far can we go in the long run? we alone have the answer to that.
How do you make it easy on yourself or at least make it look easy
Things aren't always the way it is which is one reason I personally don't like to see someone else's achievements as being too easy or overlook the process and pain he/she might have to go through to get to such height. You might not even hit your target after putting in all your effort It happens
First thing on your plate is looking within and seeing what might be holding you back, funny thing is you can be the one holding you back or you've always been the one holding yourself back.
How is that possible??
It's very much possible because only you set your goals and only you will be able to achieve them or not. It's clear.
Building habits to achieve more.
How can we move forward in our own pace and within our own ability without getting too ahead of ourselves. Trust me I would love to have a $1 million net worth if you ask me about my crazy goals for the year lol kinda crazy right??? Yes it is.
This might be easy for someone else but seeing through and within myself I know the answer to that, I might never be able to get to such height in a short period of time, even the pressure of running too fast might give me a breakdown mentally or physically.
It's like a crypto newbie aiming at 80+ rep on hive in 3-6 months, it might work for a pro crypto analyst but for a newbie you will need to crawl before you walk, now you're trying to run too fast.
that being an imaginary example
The lesson is to go with your own pace feel the vibrations within you and enjoy every bit of the journey.
The best way to say this is to know things you can control, start there and leave what you have no control over to work on itself.
The only thing you alone can control first are your habits, what you do every 60 seconds to 60 minutes from the first second of the day to the last minute.
Accumulation of everything leads to our daily routine and helps determine how you will crush that goal in the long run.
OLD HABITS vs NEW HABITS
Just the way a house is built from below starting with the foundation layout and building from there, same as the human mind is wired to have its own foundation layout that enhance our every other action, that's the subconscious mind, the foundation to your next possible action, to building the next block.
The subconscious is what we use to know where next to go, can say the same for an opioid addict or junks addict.
These little habits from our first day on earth build a mental foundation in our brain either you like it or not, if you think about it more deeply you might not be in control of most of your actions especially when you don't have much time to think that much about it, some call it gut feeling, I call it the subconscious taking over our conscious mind.
Your old habits die hard they say, reason is that's what our mental foundation layout is and we've been building each block following the foundation layout.
The mind is very tricky and to build a new habit you need to get rid or demolish the old ones, start a new foundation.
This tends to be the hardest part of the process and many fail in this area without even knowing it.
Just as it takes time to build those old habit in our subconscious, same way it is to make new ones and create a new subconscious that can help you get to your goals and even achieve more because its now a part of you.
It's said on average it take 3-4 weeks to reprogram our subconscious mind with new habits, takes longer than that for others but sticking to same routine daily and not giving in to our old habits helps the process.
You know your old habits that's hindering you for achieving more and you can always make the change today right now.
We can't keep doing the same thing every Day/Month/ year and expecting different result.
CONCLUSION
My goal for the year is to set a new subconscious mind that helps to decipher the type of goals I will be able to achieve in the long run. It's going to be a rough road but I'm always going to keep fighting.
We all have a long way to go and time isn't going to wait for anyone, better to start now than later.
If you always achieve your new year goals then you can achieve even more with new habits that further enhance your productivity. #ALWAYSTRIVETOBEBETTERALWAYS

Thanks marvinix for sharing this. It is hard to build a habit due to certain factors ( or maybe it is just an excuse for me) my goals on Hive are somehow achieved as of now but for my health concerns, I am not that good. As I promised myself that I will do at least 5 minutes of jump rope this year but to my surprise 5 days already pass and I lost 5 days already haha.
Need to refocus and work and build small habits that can give big results in the future. Almost the same concept with stacking.

Those factors will help better position us on how we can do things in our own way.
Smiles 😊 I know that feeling, imagine me planning to start a workout routine all through 2021 but I didn't get to register until it was late December.
Instead of 5mins jump rope you can just take a nice walk for a start or sweat it out from any of your daily activity, that way it helps prepare the body for more similar activity.
The only way to go is forward. Hopefully I get to write a post on having a coping mechanism to help avoid triggers that leads us straight back to our old habits.
Thanks for the honest reply, 5 days isn't going to be regained back but you can try to go for just 1 minute jump rope daily, the easier it gets the better.

Setting goals and resolutions without getting rid of the old habits is like adding fresh oil to an engine without pouring the old and black one away. It will definitely get black too.
Everyone needs to look within because we all have flaws in the way we do things, and trying to be a better self every single day would actually make one achieve better than he thinks he can in a long run.
Thanks for this post, it talks to everyone about the little changes that can make a huge difference to one’s life
100% correct. You have to be able to deal with your past/bad habits then work your way out from there.
Thanks for the kind words brother, the little things matters, they might even be the only thing that does.

Great message! That is my goal for this year is building a strong working habit. Setting a schedule to work and compartmentalizing my time is going to help get all the tasks done in a day that I need to get done for the multiple hustles I have started for myself, lol. It takes setting good habits and staying disciplined in your approach and you can succeed!
That's the best way to go, winning everyday is the challenge.
A strong working habit is also something that I need to start getting into, not used to such system before but It's better to move forward than remain where you are.
That 100% correct. Bad habits leads to negative results, good healthy habits is always going to be the best way to go.
Even laziness is one bad habit and it's a catalyst to being unproductive.
Thanks for the reply, I hope you get to keep winning everyday and have a successful year.

It’s all about showing up every day! Nobody is going to do it for us, so as long as I get up and show up, there is no losing! Even loses are wins if you learn lessons from them!
E’ryday we’re hustlin’
For sure there's no losing, one way or the other there will always be a lesson to be learned.
Just pick yourself up and keep pushing.
The hustle is always on😎

Setting a goal is always easy when you have right attitude towards it, when we develop good habits towards money and goal the rest becomes easy

Reason why we have to keep making it happen everyday and break it down to little habits that can be completed every passing minute/hour/day.
Thanks for checking by.

I soul touching and heart felt one you are right.it’s not an easy task to let go of a bad habit,that’s why Consistency and dedication is very essential. Thanks for sharing this
You are always welcome brother.
It takes more than motivation alone to get rid of bad habits in the long run.
The good habits can be developed little by little everyday and with time you'll get there.
