Before you can achieve anything in life, you have to know what you want. You have to decide that whatever you’re doing is important to you, that it’s worth it. And if it isn’t, it’s time to set new, more meaningful goals.

If you are really passionate about it, first you will try your best to make it a SMART goal. So focus on what you really want to accomplish, and it will make the journey that much sweeter.

My discussion here not about how you should be making your goals but instead how to achieve them in steps. I’ll walk you through one of my current goals and will try to achieve it.

So without any further wait, here’s my SMART goal:

“I will learn app development by completing the course by investing two hours daily for one month and will get a certificate from Udemy. I will make two new apps in the next three months by first making its UI in half time and then doing all the backend work in the other half time.”

So here are a few steps I need to take immediately:

1. Enroll in a course on app development

I took much time and decided that I need to learn Flutter to make some beautiful apps in the future. So, I enrolled in a course on Udemy.

2. Invest time daily

Yeah, you read it right. I would say investing time instead of spending time so you know that every second of it is important here. I will be spending two hours daily in order to complete this course in the next four weeks.

Here’s a screenshot of me working on a project from the course:

3. Make a few projects on my own

In order to get work from clients, I need to have a portfolio so that they can trust my skills and let me work on the app which may make their business even better.
For this, I will be developing at least two apps with complete front-end to back-end. I will post them on a portfolio website so that it is easy to access.

4. Sending proposals to the clients

After doing the course work and a few projects for my own learning, I will start sending proposals to the clients on different freelance websites. I will try to make sure I spend at least 15 minutes every day on those websites in order to make sure I get the project asap.

So now as I have told everyone on the internet, I hope now this will a sort of motivate me to complete the tasks on time. Wish me luck!

Also, wishing you luck in deciding your goals and making plans on how to achieve them. Good Luck!!!!
