Workplace Wellbeing

Accomplishment 

A sense of accomplishment is an outcome of having the drive and motivation to complete a planned task or activity or mastering an endeavour. It asks us to persevere, perhaps in the face of adversity and multiple barriers and focus on passion to attain our goals. If we focus on internal motivation and how we will grow during the journey, we can expect to flourish in the process. 

Goal setting is a tool that can help us gain those feelings of accomplishment and pride, positively impacting our emotional and mental health through a greater sense of control and increased self-esteem. It also enhances resilience, as working toward a goal requires problem-solving and persistence, building our emotional strength. Having goals provides a sense of motivation, which can reduce stress and anxiety, as it shifts focus from uncertainties to concrete, achievable outcomes. Ultimately, setting and achieving goals is a powerful way to improve wellbeing. 

Goal setting helps give tasks and projects structure, direction, and a sense of purpose. At work, clear goals provide us with a roadmap, helping us prioritise tasks and make informed decisions about timelines and capacity. By breaking down large projects into smaller, manageable steps, goal setting also reduces overwhelm. 

It's not just in our professional lives where goal setting can benefit us. In our personal lives, goals help us create meaningful outcomes whether it's pursuing a new hobby, building relationships, or maintaining a healthy lifestyle. This sense of direction empowers us to feel a greater sense of control and purpose and stops us from being overwhelmed by our seemingly never-ending to-do lists!
