Manage Your Expectations. I can’t tell you how often my clients beat themselves up for not accomplishing enough. And, when I have them examine their life and get in touch with their priorities, they find out/realize that it’s not possible that they accomplish what they intended in the time-frame they allotted for themselves. So here they have beat themselves up for no reason.
When setting goals, it’s great to set them high so that you have to reach. But don’t set them so high, you can’t reach them. This is setting you up for failure instead of 
success. So, let’s talk about how to avoid this is the future. Here are a few things to consider when setting goals:
1. Look at your “whole” life.
Besides achieving your business goals, you may have health goals, relationship goals, family responsibilities, etc. Write out all the things that you are working to achieve in all areas of your life.
2. Honestly determine how much time you can dedicate per day/week.
Now, look at ALL the things you listed in #1 and take those into consideration while you determine how much time you can dedicate per day/week to your business. And, don’t overshoot because if you do, you are setting yourself up for failure and you’ll be back to square one. If you can only dedicate 2 hours a day, don’t pretend you can dedicate 8. Make a commitment you can keep.
3. Determine your business goals.
Now that you have looked at your whole life and determined how much time you can dedicate to your business, create some realistic goals taking all of that into consideration. Be realistic in your projections. Does it have to be prefect? Of course not, but it should be well thought out given all the information.
