Four Tools to Achieve Your Lifestyle Goals

You wouldn’t expect yourself to cook in the kitchen without the proper knives, pans, and pots, and you wouldn’t expect to build your body at the gym without the proper equipment either, right?
Think about lifestyle freedom in the same way that you think about cooking or building muscle at the gym. While you could achieve your goals without any assistance, tools will help you to achieve your goals faster and more efficiently.
So I will cover the four different types of tools you can use to help you track your progress, achieve your goals, and work your way to a better life.
#1. Journaling Although this doesn’t seem to be the go-to tool for many of those seeking lifestyle freedom in this day and age, the journal is a classic tool that is both affordable and useful.
Journaling is best for those who are looking to track their progress as they make changes in their daily lives. When you take a look at your journal each day, you are constantly reminding yourself of the goals that you have set.
Even better, you can use the journal to also keep track of the progress that you have made, make a definitive list of actions that will help you reach your goals, and list of all of the things that may not be working as well.
Also, the journal is a tool that is highly customizable. If you’re someone who wants to meet their lifestyle goals without having too many distracting features, you can choose to make a bullet journal.
If you prefer visuals that remind you of where you are going and motivate you, you can paste pictures and draw inside your journal.
Your creativity is your only limit.
#2. Vision Board Vision boards are one of the most used tools today to help people reach their goals.
A vision board is essentially a collage filled with objects, pictures, sayings, and other small pieces that represent the future you would like to have.
While a journal may be too demanding for some people, a vision board is almost perfect for everyone who is wishing to change their lifestyle.
However, it will take a small time investment initially when you begin putting it together.
What can you put on your vision board? Here are some ideas:
Magazine cutouts that represent your end goals Positive affirmations that help you get the most out of your day Pamphlets of places that you would like to travel to Important notes from loved ones #3. Sticky Notes Even simpler than the above two methods, you could leave sticky notes in places where you are sure to see them and remind yourself of your goals.
For those of you who may want to incorporate more mindfulness into your daily schedule, you can place a sticky note by your bed that reminds you to breathe and meditate every morning.
If you’re someone who wants to work less and spend more time with your family, you can place a sticky note at your place of employment that tells you to work smarter and not longer.
Whatever it is that you are setting out to do, a simple sticky note with an important reminder can help you to achieve it.
#4. Apps Not everyone is into creating physical manifestations of their goals and that’s absolutely okay. If you’re still creative and would like to make a digital version of these tools, that works just as well as a physical version.
If you’re more into applications that help you to track your goals and your progress, here are some goal setting applications recommended by Lifewire that will help you to do exactly that:

However, there is a line that people sometimes cross when people begin buying more tools than they need. This is what I’ll be addressing in the next episode.
