6 Ways To Quantify Your Progress To Maximize Your Motivation & Results

Updated: Feb 19, 2022

Progress is the most powerful motivator. Even if you need to lose 100 pounds, seeing that you've lost 10 pounds is quite exciting. However, sometimes advancement is not always visible and certain things are highly subjective unless they are quantified.


For instance, while it may be difficult to see a 10-pound weight loss in the mirror, your progress on a bathroom scale is reasonably apparent.

Specific objectives may take an extended time to complete and if you judge yourself solely on whether or not you've accomplished the goal, you're going to be unhappy for months, if not years. Additionally, you're likely to lose interest. Monitoring your progress enables you to achieve long-term goals much easier.


Utilize the following methods to quantify your progress in various areas of focus:


1. Weight


The scale is a well-known measurement tool and it is pretty simple to step on at regular intervals to monitor your progress.

  • Your body weight fluctuates significantly according to hydration, hormone levels, and the duration since you last used the restroom.

  • One strategy for minimizing these variations is to weigh yourself under the same conditions each day. Get up and use the restroom before weighing yourself. Even better, weigh yourself each morning, but compare one week to the next using the weekly average.

2. Personal Finances


Calculate how much money you spend daily. That is, each and every cent. Additionally, keep track of your daily earnings and maintain a close eye on your bank balance. Also, monitor your brokerage account balance quarterly.

  • At least twice a year, take the time to examine your spending thoroughly.

3. Repetitions


Repetition is one method of determining progress. This could be the number of pushups performed or the number of times you practised the A-flat minor scale on the piano. It could be the number of times you have repeated your affirmations or the number of pages read. If you are in sales then start measuring the number of sales calls that you have made this week.


4. Time


Time can also be tracked.

  • How many minutes did you jog?

  • What percentage of your time did you spend on your online business?

  • How much time have you spent on Twitter?

  • How many minutes did you sleep?

  • How long did a 5 KM jog take you?

5. Occurrences


Consider occurrences to be the outcomes of your actions.

  • How much revenue did you generate?

  • What was the total number of dates you went on?

  • How many pages of writing did you develop?

  • What is the total number of songs you've composed?

  • What was the total number of widgets you produced?

6. Checklists


Successful people find it beneficial to create a checklist for the next day.

  • How many of those tasks did you complete?

  • Are you capable of accomplishing more tomorrow than you realized today?

You can even give each item a point value based on its difficulty or importance. Each day, attempt to improve your score.


You can track your progress in a variety of ways. If you're monitoring something more subjective, you may need to devise your own system. In a variety of situations, rating scales can be beneficial. For instance, you might rate your mood or the quality of a conversation. Additionally, you can assess your sleep quality.


Seeing your progress will boost your motivation and motivate you to achieve even more. If you cannot track your progress, you are more likely to abandon your efforts before attaining your objectives.
