It’s important that you frame your outcome in a positive way. Swap a negative goal like “I want to get rid of my debts from training and start earning” to “by 30th January, I will be earning ____”.
Alternatively, if you know how many clients or customers you will need for such an income, “by 30th January, I will have 20 regular clients/customers each week.”
MISTAKE - Not Considering the Variables
You need to work out how much of your goal you control. Using the example above, you may think “I can’t possibly get 20 clients or customers on my own because it depends on the market…” This is fine. Once you know that the market is an important factor, you can tailor your approach to be better prepared.

There’s no point working all out if you don’t appreciate it once you get there. The most successful and happy people set themselves measurable goals. Using the same example of getting 20 regular clients/customers by 30th January, you might decide that this will involve building up slowly. If you currently have 10 clients/customers, you will want to double it. If you’re new to your business, you’ll probably want to build up from a lower number than that.
