What would you like to be able to do? You can use goal setting as a way to help you practice your tools for managing anxiety, or to move forward with your life as your anxiety becomes more manageable. Goals are like targets or objectives you set for yourself to achieve in a specific period. They give you a clear direction and help you stay focused on what you want to accomplish. Goals Should be</p><p><b>➢</b> <b> realistic and attainable:</b> If you have goals about never feeling anxious or making mistakes. These goals are unrealistic because it is normal to feel anxious, and everyone makes mistakes sometimes.</p><p><b>➢</b> <b>Concrete and Specific: </b>If you have a goal “feel less anxious”, it is not concrete and specific, rather it should be more specific as “Practice deep breathing exercise regularly”</p><p>When setting goals to manage anxiety, it's practical to embrace normal feelings of anxiety and choose one or two achievable goals at a time. If you don't accomplish all goals, praise yourself for the ones you did meet rather than considering it a failure. Break larger goals into smaller tasks to address the fear of failure and boost confidence gradually. For those overwhelmed by managing anxiety, a concrete goal could be practicing deep breathing for 5 minutes daily. To boost motivation for wellness goals, set small, achievable tasks and reward yourself, creating a positive feedback loop that reinforces positive behavior. This approach promotes a realistic and proactive mindset toward managing anxiety and achieving wellness goals.</p><p><b>The key to achieving your goals is to just DO IT! Don’t wait for the motivation to come before you act; take action, and motivation will follow.</b></p>"
