Secret 3
Establish Deadlines
"I'll get to it, when I have time," never works. You're not going to have time, unless you schedule time.
You should set a specific deadline for each of your mini-goals. Here's an example:
DEADLINE FOR MINI-GOAL 1: September 04
DEADLINE FOR MINI-GOAL 2: September 11
DEADLINE FOR MINI-GOAL 3: September 18
DEADLINE FOR MINI-GOAL 4: September 25
Secret 4
Designate rewards
In order to really get motivated, designate a reward for each mini-goal achieved by your specified deadline. It has to be something really enticing, that you will only give yourself WHEN you reach your goal.
Your final mini-goal--the one that allows you to fully complete your major goal--should be the reward that most entices you. Here's an example:
REWARD FOR MINI-GOAL 1: Take a 15 minute nap in the backyard hammock.
REWARD FOR MINI-GOAL 2: Go for a peaceful walk with your pet.
REWARD FOR MINI-GOAL 3: Listen to your favorite CD--all the way through.
REWARD FOR MINI-GOAL 4: Take yourself out for a nice lunch.
