One of the most asked questions in the 3in30 Challenge is how to break bigger goals into smaller goals. I searched the web for answers, and I found some great advice on Life as Mom…

“To get healthy” can be my goal, but that’s rather vague. To take it further, I need to break it down into smaller, bite-size pieces. Here are some steps I’ve identified for myself as some to take toward my goal this year.

• Make the dr. appt and go.
• Get to bed by 10 every night.
• Take a regular supplement.
• Drink more water.
• Start exercising.
• Eliminate processed sugars.

Calling for a doctor’s appointment is an easy thing to do — and so much less intimidating than “getting healthy.” I can do that!

Since I think so much better on paper than I do in my head, I created a worksheet to help me break down the different steps of my goals. I also included a space for “resources to make it happen.” For instance, I need childcare so I can be free to go to the dr. This helps me think through my goal and how to achieve it. It also gives me a nudge to seek out those resources.
