How to Achieve What You Want Through Goal Setting

Have you ever read the autobiography of a great financier or businessman of the past?


How about the biography of a successful inventor or scientist?


Most of the great achievers in life were natural born goal setters.


They started at an early age to challenge themselves to reach the next objective.


Goal setting forms a road map to the destination of fulfilled dreams.


Goals are best organized by area of life and then by the "due date."


For instance, if you want to really achieve the life you dream of, it is a good idea to set goals in areas like social/community life, spiritual growth, and health/fitness as well as job, career, or finances.


This takes some consideration, and it is not essential that you get it perfect.


In fact, perfectionism will actually keep you from reaching your goals.


Perfectionism, by the way, tends to exacerbate procrastination, which is a major killer of goals and dreams.


Often the reason we procrastinate is because we have trouble making up our minds.


The reason we have trouble making decisions is that we are afraid we won't make the perfect decision.


Think also about where you need to be in six months, or a year, or three years, in order to eventually achieve that dream life.


Would you like to be a successful speaker, writer, athlete, or performing artist?


Then goal setting will help you get your educational requirements and practice schedule nailed down.


Do they conflict with your basic feelings about ethics or morality?


Or are you thinking that reaching a certain goal will fulfill your every emotional need?
