I love this activity! 😄 I'll start with a small-ish goal: Being a tiiiiiiny bit more active! I've been struggling with this a lot during lockdown, so I think this activity could really help!

 

1. Outline some steps you need to achieve the goal. It could be anything, big or small!

  • Going for walks: walking my puppy at least once a day
  • Taking breaks from work: stepping away from my computer and stretching or just walking around my room a few times a day

2. List some possible challenges or barriers to achieving this goal.

  • Motivation: I find it hard to stay motivated sometimes and can be inconsistent with my goals. I often want immediate improvement and if I don't get it, it's hard to keep going 😔
  • Forgetfulness: Sometimes I can just forget to do something haha! This is a goal I want to do consistently and honestly I might forget it entirely haha 😂

3. List some strategies you can use to overcome these potential issues.

  • Starting small: I find it hard to tackle big tasks, so I think making it into tiny bits would be great! I might try to go for a 5-10 minute walk each day.
  • Staying positive: Acknowledging that small progress is still progress! I can be quite hard on myself and want to get better immediately, but I think things take time. It's little consistent bits that add up!
  • Doing it with friends: I find it hard to stay accountable to myself, so I think if I get my friends to do it with me, it'll be more fun, I'll be less likely to forget, and I'll also be more motivated!
