Fix the objective and derive your goals. What is the difference between an objective and a goal? &#8211; The first thought when you brainstormed for New Year resolutions would usually be an objective, and not a goal. (Discount the \u201cAh, I never achieve them\u201d voice for now).<\/p>\n<p>Example of an Objective: Improve my badminton game.<\/p>\n<p>Add to this your current skill, the resources you have and your aspirations to come up with a set of goals. They have a clear \u2018Yes, achieved!\u2019 or \u2018No, I didn\u2019t\u2019 answer.<\/p>\n<p>Example of Goals:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Skills: Play at least 3 hours a week. Get coach review once a month.<\/li>\n<li>Fitness: Improve stamina by\u00a0running 3 hours every week.<\/li>\n<li>Match practice: Play against 12 state level players aged 18-35. Play 4 tournaments.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Just like you derived your goals from your objective, you can further disintegrate goals into tasks that are achievable right from day one. Keep the tasks as specific as your GOALS and have deadlines or frequencies for each.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e{\nheight:75px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_four_fifth  el_before_av_one_fifth '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_four_fifth  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-1969a47b8cfcadd152a2b0e70683ea21\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-1969a47b8cfcadd152a2b0e70683ea21 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-1969a47b8cfcadd152a2b0e70683ea21 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-1969a47b8cfcadd152a2b0e70683ea21 av-styling- avia_animated_image av-animated-when-visible-95 pop-up avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-15  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-1444 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-1444 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/announcement-icon-80x80.png\" alt='' title='announcement-icon'  height=\"80\" width=\"80\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/announcement-icon-80x80.png 80w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/announcement-icon-36x36.png 36w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/announcement-icon-180x180.png 180w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/announcement-icon-120x120.png 120w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/announcement-icon.png 256w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 80px) 100vw, 80px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-0366cc7376be6c9e82a3e9cc8987b64f '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>Post\u00a0 your goals on social media.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28\">\n.flex_column.av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28 av_four_fifth  avia-builder-el-17  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-1f3fac31ad8bd48ac4afff9fdfdf8cd4\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-1f3fac31ad8bd48ac4afff9fdfdf8cd4{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-1f3fac31ad8bd48ac4afff9fdfdf8cd4 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-1f3fac31ad8bd48ac4afff9fdfdf8cd4 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-1f3fac31ad8bd48ac4afff9fdfdf8cd4 av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-18  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >2.

As side effects, you\u2019ll get free encouragement and find pokers who will keep reminding you of your goals.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e{\nheight:75px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-20  el_after_av_four_fifth  el_before_av_one_fifth '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-21  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_four_fifth  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-8eb3acc2a85055034f960adc1025f788\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-8eb3acc2a85055034f960adc1025f788 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-8eb3acc2a85055034f960adc1025f788 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-8eb3acc2a85055034f960adc1025f788 av-styling- avia_animated_image av-animated-when-visible-95 pop-up avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-22  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-1446 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-1446 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Play-icon-80x80.png\" alt='' title='Play icon'  height=\"80\" width=\"80\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Play-icon-80x80.png 80w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Play-icon-36x36.png 36w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Play-icon-180x180.png 180w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Play-icon-120x120.png 120w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Play-icon.png 206w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 80px) 100vw, 80px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-0366cc7376be6c9e82a3e9cc8987b64f '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>Start immediately.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28\">\n.flex_column.av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28 av_four_fifth  avia-builder-el-24  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_section  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-d1a2a75cc987b997ce7d8b970061e846\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-d1a2a75cc987b997ce7d8b970061e846{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-d1a2a75cc987b997ce7d8b970061e846 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-d1a2a75cc987b997ce7d8b970061e846 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-d1a2a75cc987b997ce7d8b970061e846 av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-25  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >3.

Besides loss of time, it psychologically makes the task daunting (that you have to wait for the perfect day else you couldn\u2019t achieve it).<\/li>\n<li>Hares (over enthusiastic): Hares will start running even before chalking out their goals. And then will burn out, lose sight of the objective, and get distracted in a few weeks. Do not fire on all cylinders without a plan, just because you are pumped up.<\/li>\n<li>Run, but be more of a turtle than anything else \u2013 plan smartly, start immediately and persist ruthlessly.

Week after week, you have to keep going. Loyalty programs, credit cards and probably also your company uses gamification one way or the other to get the desired behavior from you. It has unbelievable powers to push you in the right direction. Incentivize behavior that you want and punish that you don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Example:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Fitness Goal: An hour of running thrice a week<\/p>\n<p>Scheme &#8211; Deposit Rs.5200 with your buddy. For every week that you don\u2019t achieve 3 hours of running, he gets Rs.100 out of the deposit. And if you make it, you get back Rs.100 from him and buy yourself a dessert. If Rs.5200 (at stake) can get you to clock your 3 hours a week \u2013 it\u2019s probably the best bargain of your life. Increase (or decrease) the stakes if that works for you.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e{\nheight:75px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-d59938ea8e504299918568998e6a1d7e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-44  el_after_av_four_fifth  el_before_av_one_fifth '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_fifth-352b07ef7d3bc99b2e9f92e7a9e06bdb av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-45  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_four_fifth  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-4d6000931538a185ba7ca6ab0437c0e2\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-4d6000931538a185ba7ca6ab0437c0e2 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-4d6000931538a185ba7ca6ab0437c0e2 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-4d6000931538a185ba7ca6ab0437c0e2 av-styling- avia_animated_image av-animated-when-visible-95 pop-up avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-46  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-1445 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-1445 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/community-1-80x80.png\" alt='' title='community (1)'  height=\"80\" width=\"80\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/community-1-80x80.png 80w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/community-1-36x36.png 36w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/community-1-120x120.png 120w, https:\/\/spyn.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/community-1.png 180w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 80px) 100vw, 80px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-0366cc7376be6c9e82a3e9cc8987b64f '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>Get in touch with people having similar goals.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28\">\n.flex_column.av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_four_fifth-2a64de42b738552fe666ca889af77e28 av_four_fifth  avia-builder-el-48  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-12295439c3c95eb7bef5eb852f06335c\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-12295439c3c95eb7bef5eb852f06335c{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-12295439c3c95eb7bef5eb852f06335c .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-12295439c3c95eb7bef5eb852f06335c .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-12295439c3c95eb7bef5eb852f06335c av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-49  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >5.

Now try going up that mountain alone and you will wonder how you made it last time. Co-working influences your mind. Distractions (like helping others, chatting or simply observing them) occupy mind space and keep it away from the pain of hard work. So get in touch with people having similar goals and get working in a group. (Thankfully this is now easier with <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.atzos.spyn\" target=\"_blank\">spyn<\/a>.) Have fun.

Dodge unpleasant circumstances that pull you away from your tasks.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you have no motivation to get up for your jogging routine, wake up to something you like \u2013 reading, music, etc. And schedule a jog right after this. Your high spirits should make it easier to get into those running shoes. In case you can\u2019t resist chocolates while on a diet, keep fruits handy. Whenever you crave, get away from chocolates.
