Make a list

Lists are great ways to stay on track. Write down some big things you want to accomplish and some smaller things, too.

Right, that sounds simple doesn't it! Its not and it hurts my head, where's that whiskey bottle ?

Check the list regularly

Don’t forget to check in and see how you’re doing. Just because you don’t achieve the big goals right away doesn’t mean you’re not making progress.

Hmmmm! doesn't seem as if I'm getting anywhere, in fact sometimes it seems I'm going one step forward and two backwards. Now where was that whiskey bottle?

Reward yourself

When you succeed in achieving a goal, be it a big one or a small one, make sure to pat yourself on the back.

Ah, I like this one, give me that whiskey bottle, ha!

Think positively

Positive thinking is a major factor in success. So instead of mulling over things that didn’t go quite right, remind yourself of things that did.
