That 'ONE ACTION' Goal

GOALS GOALS GOALS, one of the most overused words ever.  To an extent that WHEN we hear it, more often it somehow falls on the hollowed halls OR worse, on deaf ears.  BUT how about That 'ONE ACTION' Goal?  True, it's NOT a novel proposition BUT I believe this is worth thinking about because WHILE most of us did set GOALS, probably 98% of those pre-set GOALS will entail more than just ONE ACTION.  And honestly, with our UNLI ambitions [which is commendable], we have GOALS that need a zillion ACTIONS to be taken before that GOAL gets achieved📗📙📘

True indeed, a big chunk of our GOALS entail more than just one single ACTION.  We'll claim that life is NOT as simple as 1-2-3 OR ABC.  Even a casual goal to be the very first one to greet your best friend on her birthday come next day may NOT be a ONE ACTION GOAL because of dependencies like, you need to enable your alarm clock and here's the thing, you are praying you will get awakened by the buzz of the alarm clock, whew💧💧💧

Admittedly, many times in the past, I myself, I got 'trapped' [on my own fault though] because maybe 99% of my GOALS were NOT the ONE ACTION GOAL I'm harping now.  BUT that's the reality though.  More often, there are dependencies, there are pre-requisites.  Like that whim to be the first 'greeter' of your best friend when her birthday kicks in come next day.  Even that alarm clock has become a dependency❗❗❗

Let's have a micro-mini clinic here.  So, instead of setting a goal to be the 'first birthday greeter' come next day, WHY DON'T you set that not so ambitious GOAL of getting awakened each time your alarm clock buzzes?  ISN'T that the simplest GOAL yet the benefits you will reap once you achieve it will NOT just positively impact that very next day BUT it will trigger compounded effects thereafter even by lifting just the edges of your index finger.  Once you develop that discipline to be awakened by the alarm clock's buzzing, the rest of the weeks, months OR even your life, you DON'T need to be apprehensive IF ever you will remain dead asleep when that alarm clock buzzes any day in the future.  That's a ONE ACTION GOAL dude💥💥💥

Our takeaway:  You may play devil's advocate to tell me that life is much more complicated than just being bothered by one's inability to be awakened by the alarm clock's buzzing.  BUT will you agree with me that if that inability to be awakened becomes habitual and chronic, think about the consequences and ramifications of the tiniest issue in your life compounding its impact come next day, next week, next month and in your future.  Do consider that 'ONE ACTION' goal.  NOT a steep goal, dude😉😉😉
