Why Setting Goals Isn't Enough: Preparing for the Unplanned
When i see some successful people making it out there, i am already envious of them because i actually do not see something bad there been envious of a successful person because that will actually trigger me to do better things and also put more effort in things which i always do.
The start of the year, i was trying to set up some goals which i will love to meet and achieve by the end of the year and then the mindset of nothing can actually come in the way is always there which is not supposed to be so. One of my goal at the start of the year is to get some gadget for myself within a short period of time and also decided to get a new phone by the middle of the year, further on the goal set up was to get to 5000 hive power by the end of the year also and i believe that was an easy one to do without any challenge coming up throughout the year.
The year started moving and i could remember then at the beginning of the year, i was in my final year then as an undergraduate and during that two month of the year we got a news that the tuition fee has increased by 200% which we never even planned for and one of the my goal which is to get a new phone before the end of the year is about to be shattered which i never planned of and all money which i planned for was used for another thing which is the tuition fee and i just have to start planning again.
By this time we are already at the fourth month of the year and the issue of project came in which we are raise money and also fund the project we are doing as a final year student, then i had to remove part of my money which i actually saved again for my phone and i used it for my project also, the way which i had intention of preparing and engaging on hive writing much of quality post and also get to my goal of 5000hp was not looking like it can be achieved. So when everything could be over we have passed the 6th month of the year and the goal of getting my new phone at the middle of the year is not coming out well.
I never had the plan of having challenges in my goal which i had set down at the beginning of the year and that was one of the thing that affected me because setting up goals should have challenges also listed so that one can figue out what should be done when matter arises. The fear of not getting all my goal which i have laid down should have been there in the beginning as that will make me concentrated and also know how to handle issues. There is always fear for ones goal not to be achieved but the determination and preparation again ups and down will surely make everything come out good at the end...
