It seems to me that the action goals are better than the consequence goals because you are more able to make sure that they happen. For example, I can make sure that I workout 20 times during the month. It will lead to losing weight, but doesn't guarantee it.

Looks like your on the right track. Something I have been experimenting with is making a list of goals, and writing them down literally every day. Reading and reviewing every day has really shown to be bringing these as a reality in my experience.

Good luck!
