That's basically what I do, except that I review my goals more often than weekly, and that I don't schedule anything.
I usually review my goals every day and ask myself what I could do right now to move closer to my goal. Then I take the right next action that I feel inspired to take, without scheduling anything. I HATE schedules. Scheduling is a sure recipe to make me not do something.  |
excellent
scheduling can be powerful if used correctly. by scheduling I don't mean having every minute or every hour planned, more that I will commit to doing some particular thing on a particular day (at any time on that day). i.e. if your goal was to exercise you might schedule swimming on Tuesday and Thursday. something simple like that. do whatever works best for you though.
also, I saw your goals on Page 1 as the following;
- align with Power, Authority and Abundance
- find my inner peace
- journal three pages every morning (I already do that and want to continue)
- get my driver's license
- eat 100% low-fat raw vegan.
- go to bed early
- exercise much more or more intensively than now (what exactly is still unclear)
- become officially self-employed
- develop my blog (technique + content)
- build websites 1, 2, 3 and 4
- write eBooks 1, 2 and 3
- learn about internet marketing and SEO
- learn webdesign, php, maybe ruby
- learn latex
- learn to speak fluent English
- recover my rusty Spanish till it's fluent
- learn Russian
- create a Toastmasters club where I live (I wanted to join but there is none)
- create a local Personal Development club where I live
- write novels 1, 2 and 3
- write screenplays 1 and 2
- write my children's book
- improve my connection with the Universe / my spirit guides / my higher self
- develop my claircognizance
- meditate daily
- daily chakra cleansing
- daily kinesiology exercises
- learn energy healing
- learn massage
- meet my perfect dance partner and dance the most harmonious tango argentino
- take a bellydancing class
- take a streetfighting class
- make clay sculptures
- travel to Serbia
- travel to Estonia
I can see how these would be overwhelming. I would recommend that you group similar goals together so they don't overwhelm you and so that you are clear on the
real purpose of the goal is and give yourself
many ways to achieve this purpose. This is something Tony Robbins teaches exceptionally well in "Time Of Your Life".
For example, I see you have a LOT of learning goals, some travel goals, some language goals, some writing goals etc. Here's an example how you can group these goals together successfully;
WRITING GOALS
transform
- write eBooks 1, 2 and 3
- write novels 1, 2 and 3
- write screenplays 1 and 2
- write my children's book
into
OUTCOME: be an excellent writer and make $xxx from my writing (NOTE: you can word and measure this however is most empowering to you. this is only an example)
and then make it more powerful by adding a purpose and action plan as seen below
PURPOSE:
- writing is something I enjoy very much
- to entertain and inspire many people through my writing
- to create an excellent income stream from something I enjoy doing
ACTIONS
1. write for an hour or more everyday, 6 days a week (with one day to rest and revive)
2. find excellent publishers to help make my writing available to people who will enjoy it and to provide me with income
the great thing about this is that you can achieve your outcome in many ways. for example you may become captivated by writing just one book that you feel has great potential and this book becomes very popular and successful and provide you with all the things you wanted in this area of your life. now, instead of looking at your goals for the year and saying
"I failed in my writing in 2009 because I only wrote one novel and did complete the other eight books and screenplays" you can say
"I did some great writing and achieved my goal in 2009 by writing and releasing an excellent book and making $xxx" (or however you wish to measure it).
you can do that with each area of your goals and you'll find you can reduce 30 or 40 goals down to maybe 5 or 6 key areas/outcomes.
I hope this advice helps you, please let me know your feedback.
Also do check out "Time Of Your Life" by Anthony Robbins (it's an audio program) to gain more details and more distinctions on how you can set your life up to be a winner.
All the best!
