What to do when you are not getting the results you expect? Keys to put together a strategy and achieve your goals
The first thing I suggest is something you should NOT do. And it is despair, anger, frustration and abandonment. That is to say, accept your emotions, but do not stop there, in a manifestation of an emotional state. If you really want to achieve a specific objective, you must do something else. And for that, you will have to put together a strategy.
First of all you have to accept that you must change something. Surely you have heard Einstein's famous phrase that says something like "if you want different results, don't always do the same thing". I think it is a very good base to start working on your strategy. Make a list of all the things you did to achieve your goal and evaluate them. Analyze which of them have had results and which have not. And identify which of those results have brought you closer to or further from your goal. That way, you will have a basis to know which of your actions you should change (because obviously they are not doing anything to help you achieve your goal) and which of them you can continue doing or perhaps modifying them a bit will have a new action step.
- Identify if what you want to achieve is short term or medium term. This will help you to correctly focus each of the action steps with a potential result. For example, it is not the same to want to improve the performance of your work activities and optimize your agenda (short-term result that you can achieve in a day or a week, depending on what actions you take) than to balance your personal life with your work obligations.. This last point requires the first (that is the first step of the strategy) but also many other things that you will have to do and perceive, and it will take a little more time to focus on your objective. It is important that you determine that this is what you want to achieve and that you will not be distracted by other situations that occur. No one has a single goal to accomplish each time,but you can choose what is your priority. So, every time you put together your day or week planning, this objective will come first and you can give more space to the actions you want to do to get closer to it. Persist in your action plan. If you really want to achieve something, don't give up on your goal at the first stumble. Of course, do not walk blindly towards it without taking into account what crosses your path. Evaluate each action and if it did not get the result you expected, change something. If you made a mistake, learn from your mistake and aim to do it differently next time. But don't abandon the race.If you really want to achieve something, don't give up on your goal at the first stumble.
