Re-evaluate and reprioritize

There was likely a reason you gave up on your goals. Think about why you lost momentum and what you truly want to accomplish next. To set new goals:

  • Make sure this is the right goal that you’re tackling at the right time.
  • Think about whether you have the time to dedicate yourself to pursuing it.
  • Ensure the goal is in line with your values.

Use the power of habit

Be specific about the steps you’ll need to take, habits you need to build, and the performance levels you seek.

For example, if you set a revenue goal—increase revenue a certain percentage or bring in a certain number of new customers—you need to establish the habits that will bring you closer to that goal, even if the original outcome isn’t attainable in a few months.
