Have You Been Reaching Your Writing Goals?

Published by kohuether at 12:57 am under Writing Edit This

So, it’s been over a month since the New Year began and it’s time to review your writing goals again. For me, I am in the habit of reviewing my goals all the time. But it wasn’t always like this. In the beginning I needed constant reminders. Consider this your friendly reminder!

When you look at your goals, it’s a good idea to consider a few points.

  1. Is the goal clearly written or too vague?
  2. Do you have a series of action steps written down with the goal? If not, jot them down.
  3. How close are you to achieving your goal? Did you already achieve it?
  4. Are there any new goals you’d like to set?

My freelance writing career is always evolving and changing. I need to set goals all the time so that I can make room for these changes.

    What works for me? Before I quit working for the day, I always mentally make 1-3 goals for the next day. I keep going the next day until I’ve met at least one of these goals.
