Goal Setting from the H.E.A.R.T.

Think of goals as investments—your time is a limited resource so your choice in how you will “spend” it is powerful. To be worthy of your energy and focus goals should move you closer to your heart-felt dreams. H.E.A.R.T. Goals are distinct from other types of goals in that they are lit up from the inside—you can feel the difference. Working on a H.E.A.R.T. Goal will make you feel one or more of these:

H—Happy
E—Energized
A—Accomplished
R—Resilient
T—Transformed

H.E.A.R.T. Goal Acid Test Questions

When considering a goal, ask yourself:

Does this goal light up my soul? Goals must have enough juice to light that internal spark of exhilaration inside you. Even mundane goals can be put in their bigger context to see how they serve your life. Saving money now for a trip to Hawaii later for instance.

Is this goal coming from inside or outside? Goals that are born from what we “should” be doing are anemic and unsustainable. It may be time to let go of goals based on someone else’s opinion or conventional wisdom if they don’t align with what lights you up.

How can I make this goal bite-sized? Success builds momentum. It’s important to break bigger or more long-term goals into smaller increments. Focusing on and completing three steps at a time is a satisfying and doable way to tackle an otherwise overwhelming goal.

How will I measure progress? It’s motivating to see tangible progress so make sure that you mark your starting point, define the finish line and build in milestones so you can track your successes. Working in plenty of self-acknowledgement and rewards along the way will help keep you motivated.

Am I working toward something? It’s much more energizing to frame goals in terms of things you want to approach rather than things you want to avoid. Think “organize so I’m more efficient and peaceful” rather than “clean up that messy office.”

Self-Forgiveness, Acceptance and Love

If you set a goal that you don’t complete, revisit the goal and adjust it or abandon it without self-judgment. Remember, your life is like a science experiment! Use the information you gleaned from the experience to refine your goals going forward. Maybe you weren’t ready for the uncompleted goal or it wasn’t really “juicy” enough for you after all. If you still want the outcome—get creative and revise the action steps to ones that work better for your life. This is you investing in you.

  1. I want to thank all those who have been helping others get their loved ones back with the help of Dr. Odunga. You guys really helped me find the right spell caster.
    This is about a real spell caster who did a great thing for me. My name is Kurtis Williams. This testimony is about this great spell caster Doctor Odunga who helped me restore my love life back. Me and my wife had a fight and this fight led to us filing a divorce paper with the court and I had made up my mind. My wife was also at the same time furious about the whole issue and my family was broken into two opposite sides. With advice from a good friend of the family I decided to save my marriage and consult a spell caster to save my marriage. I went online into the internet and searched for a real spell caster’s testimony and after reading the testimony of Doctor Odunga I knew he was the spell caster needed to save my marriage and my family from being divided. It was a twist of fate when my wife came to me one evening and said she had withdrawn the divorce papers and she didn’t want to leave me anymore. She loves me so much. I knew that the spell had worked and my marriage had been saved from jeopardy. This is a real spell caster and I believe there are people who need the help of a spell caster. Why not contact the one and true spell caster to put an end to all your problems and save your love life just like he did save my marriage. Thank you so much doctor for everything you did.

  4. I have been suffering from Herpes for the past 1 years and 8 months, and ever since then I have been taking series of treatment but there was no improvement until I came across testimonies of Dr. Silver on how he has been curing different people from different diseases all over the world, then I contacted him as well. After our conversation he sent me the medicine which I took according to his instructions. When I was done taking the herbal medicine I went for a medical checkup and to my greatest surprise I was cured from Herpes. My heart is so filled with joy. If you are suffering from Herpes or any other disease you can contact Dr. Silver today on this Email address: drsilverhealingtemple@gmail.com or Whatsapp +2348120513902

  5. I have been praying so hard to be a lottery winner so I did a research online when I saw testimonies of how Prophet Isaac reveal lottery winning numbers after casting his lottery spells so I immediately contacted him for help, he told me that a lottery spell will be cast and he will reveal the lottery numbers to me, I provided his requirements to cast the lottery spell and he gave me the lottery numbers so I bought a $50 Multiplier Mania ticket from a Newport BP gas station on Main Street and played the numbers. I couldn’t hold back my tears when I realized that I won the $500 million prize, I just dropped to my knees and hit the floor. Professor Isaac is a great psychic, Sharon Culpepper is my name and I lack words to appreciate him so I made a vow to myself that I will testify about him. Join me and thank him via email: urgentspellcast01@gmail.com
