BIG GIRL TIME

Welcome back to another wild west story where Kimaya talks about things she STILL struggles with today!!! Goals am I right? The start of something great or so we hope until it all crashes down into a big ball of flames…good ol goals man. Ok but no seriously though goals are so important to this whole big girl thing. It is actually the start. When I first started this Big Girl journey it started with me wanting more for myself. I had just gotten rejected for my dream job, just crashed my car, had no money in savings, or honestly none in my checking’s either and I was TIRED. I was so tired of living check to check struggling to pay my bills, I was tired on relying on others to make me happy, and overall I was unhappy with where I was in my life.

I took this picture after the car crash.

Now don’t take me for a joke this was not some thing I just came up with one night at 3 am in one of my “change my life now” sprees. I was actually done. I was fed up. We will continue this story as we go along the blogs because it gets pretty interesting. So essentially I over the span of months took each one of my frustrations and turned them in to goals. But there is a process to this. Here is what I followed.

Break down your goals

If you make a ginormous goal it will be harder to see what steps to take to succeed. If you break each goal down you can start to assign due dates for each task. So for example one of my goals is to gain muscle….okayyy but how. Well my first mini goal within that big goal is to go to the gym 4 times a week. That is much easier to maintain then just the big goal of gain muscle and that’s it.

Accountability partners

These are soooo important. Right now my boyfriend and my best friend are my accountability partners. Accountability partners are people who can put you in your place essentially. Who are not afraid of telling you you are slacking but doing it in a loving way. Pushing you to do better and to not give up. These people are so important. If I was trying to establish these goals alone it would be very hard to do. Find yourself a trustworthy accountability partner.

Want it bad

You have to want it girl! What ever that goal is, what ever that dream is you have to want it more than you want temporary pleasure. If your goal is to read more, you have to want something associated with the outcome of reading more so bad that it motivates you everyday.

Make it fun

Just because you have motivation does not mean you will do it lol. So why not make it fun to achieve. It is way harder to push yourself to do something that you dread so make it fun folks. Achieving your goals should not be a sad boring task. So have fun. Incorporate rewards for when you complete a mini goal within the goal.

Alrighty that is it for today. GO make some goals and get started on the today.

See yall later TTYL!
