The physie year is starting soon so it's a great time to write out your goals for 2018 and beyond. Goals that are closer to now should follow the SMART principle which I've written about here in an older post. Also, check out my other posts from the self-improvement blog series.
Long-term goals (5 years and beyond)
I hope I'll maintain my strength, flexibility and stamina ... (and fit in my current leotard).
Mid-term goals (1-5 years)
Achieve seniors (possibly join a class and compete). For non-physie readers, 'seniors' is the syllabus for young ladies. It is more fast paced than the ladies and junior syllabi.
Short-term goals (this year)
- Try learning from DVD
- Hold planks, splits, balances, back bend/impulse
- Learn moves such as fan kicks, half pirouettes and leaps
- Do the best I can with the current ladies syllabus
This month's goals (will ultimately contribute to short/mid/long term goals)
- Continue to stretch achieving both splits
- Increase the time held for balances/planks by a few seconds each month
Let's apply my mid-term goal to the SMART principle:
Specific - Learn a complete seniors' syllabus.
Measurable - When I finish learning, memorise and execute the moves.
Achievable - Yes, I will work very hard.
Realistic - Should be, I'm progressing.
Timely - In a year or two.
It's simple to start your own journal or list of goals. If you already list your goals, good on you, or if you don't, why not start now?
