Set 1 goal for yourself, start small & simple (you be the judge of yourself). It could be to follow a simple to-do list, it can be Islamic, it can be academic, personal or work related. You may wish to make a code for it to make it private (between yourself and Allah) or you can make it public and benefit from the motivation of other members.
Make sure it's a SMART goal:
S - Simple & Specific. Don't over-complicate your goal by making it vague or all-encompassing or over-think it.
M - Measurable. Results should be easily accountable. Can you tick it off? Is it numerical? Is it on a scale?
A - Achievable. Wouldn't it be nice if you alone could restrengthen
/ 
by tomorrow ? But you can't. Focus on more personal goals.R - Relevant. There needs to be an aim behind achieing your goal. What is driving you to achieve this goal?
T - Time-bound. If it is academic or work related then it is likely to have a deadline. If not, set yourself a deadline by which you should achieve it.
How to select your goal: Important & Urgent only! These can be split into (colour-coded to help you):
1) Urgent + important - highest priority. E.g. Praying 5x a day, praying those at their times.
2) Urgent + unimportant - lower priority. The sort of thing you want, not need. E.g. Xmas sales at John Lewis. 2 weeks to do it, but oh well.
3) Important + not urgent - higher priority than no.2, likely a personal goal. It suggests there is a consequence for not doing it. E.g. stopping smoking.
4) Not urgent + unimportant - lowest priority. Procrastination zone. E.g. who the hell cares? Just watch it again on BBC iPlayer or catch up on wikipedia.
The rules: Post a goal & time-limit. You can quote yourself and add comments to indicate progress. Quote at the end and reply "Done" when complete.
I'll start - goal is to complete the following before the end of the week:
1) Pay bills: split this responsibility with younger sibling
2) writing reports for pupils for parents evening: 6/31 pupils completed. Long way to go.
3) Buying some clothes: done, need to chase the delivery people.
4) buying a season oyster fair: done. Expensive
5) returning a pair of shoes: done.
6) Complete homework : 1/7 pages done. More tomorrow in shaa Allah.
7) talk to HMRC: not done. Hope they're working tomorrow.
8) plan lesson resources: not done.
So little time, so much to do. In shaa Allah khair. Ilaahow ii sahal, aamiin
Private goal: 0/5 x 7 = 0
, its funny you dont actually realise it untill people point it out
