Achievement is the feeling of pride and sense of accomplishment people experience. Do you know what you want to accomplish by the end of today, or by the end of 2013, or in five years’ time? The following tips will help to strengthen your sense of achievement.

Tip 1: Set goals that motivate you

Goal setting provides focus and direction. Write down what you want to achieve and state clearly what you need to do to achieve these goals and the time you need to reach a specific goal. To strengthen your sense of achievement, you need to set goals that are well defined and relevant to the direction you want your life and career to take.

Tip 2: Focus on previous achievements

Having a strong sense of achievement derives from having a look at all the things (both little and big) you have achieved up to now. Your perception about your capabilities and how well you have handled past situations will strengthen your sense of achievement. Using your proven strengths of past achievements will keep you positive while working on present tasks.

Tip 3: Think positive thoughts

To strengthen your sense of achievement, surround yourself with positive thoughts and positive people who share your enthusiasm. Discussing your ideas with like-minded people will affirm your accomplishments and may well inspire you to even greater achievements.

Tip 4: Keep track of your progress

Use reminders to keep yourself on track and make time to re-clarify your goals. Make sure the relevance and significance of your goals remain high. Achieving little steps along the road to reaching your goal will strengthen your sense of achievement. Surround yourself with inspiration as well as motivation so that you will be able to stay positive and focused.

Tip 5: Celebrate success

Reaching your goals is a wonderful feeling of achievement and your success should be shared with loved-ones and friends. It is important to recognise these achievements if you are to live a fulfilled and happy life. Having successfully reached your goal strengthens your sense of achievement so that you will be inspired to continue to attempt even greater things in the future.

Overall there is no greater sense of pride than knowing that you have achieved something which you set out to do.
