People often underestimated the importance of goal setting, don't be one of them. Wouldn't it be great if you were handed a map that CLEARLY illustrates where you can find buried treasure? Well, start goal setting and you'll have the equivalent. When you set CLEAR, SPECIFIC goals, you become excited by knowing EXACTLY how to get to the treasure!...
So, now all you have to do is follow the road map.
What's that? "goal setting is difficult", you say...
Yeah I know, it can be, but as soon as you make it a habit, you'll become better and better at it, on top of that, you'll no long see goal setting as such a chore. It's just one of life's designs, have you noticed everything worthwhile achieving, ISN'T easy! I actually like when things are hard because it makes me feel that I'm on the right track, and I'm certainly weary of anything that's TOO easy.
Generally, it's the minority that bother to set goals, and to me that, in itself, is a good reason to do it, why? Because the average person's life is NOT where they want it to be, so therefore...
It's often good practice to use the majority as a CONTRARY indicator of what to do in a given situation. For example, the majority don't take time to set goals, so you would do the opposite!
In short, if you want to have the best possible chance of making a success of your life, you really should set goals, but...
What do you want to be successful at?...
PUT IT INTO PERSPECTIVE
Obviously, I would recommend everybody to carry out goal setting, but I must stress the importance of setting the right type of goals, in the right order. Put another way, it's important to prioritise your goals. Does that make sense? NO...
I better explain then...
Does it make sense to go out and buy a car stereo BEFORE you own a car? You obviously need to put first things FIRST! When it comes to planning your DREAM life, getting first things first is CRUCIAL. Many people overlook the important of strengthening their foundational values, BEFORE even thinking about following self improvement strategies. This is often the route cause of successes and failures in life!...
In a nutshell, it's incredibly important to build ROCK-SOLID foundations BEFORE you set off trying to rule the world. Please believe me, you'll thank yourself for it, and me too, hopefully!
Moving Forward...
Before I close this article, I will leave you with the key elements any good plan should have...
A Goal, this goal should, were possible, be broken down into smaller goals (Small, manageable, monthly, repayments). Each goal should be clear, easily understandable and MUST be precise, e.g. I want to earn 100k from property development by 1st January 2020. The steps towards achieving these goals should be clear, doable, structured and logical.
I want you to bear this in mind...
The MOST important goal you can ever set in life, is to live a passionate, meaningful, abundant, life!... Any goal that is not working towards achieving this, can't be THAT important!
So, now all you have to do is follow the road map.
