Tips on Goal Setting


Henry David Thoreau said, "If one marches confi­dently in the direction of his dreams and endeavors to lead the life he has imagined, he will meet with success unexpected in common hours."
A dream without a goal is similar to taking an auto­mobile trip without a road map. You will surely arrive, but where? To make certain that you achieve your dreams set specific, measurable goals that are compati­ble with your dreams.
  • Goals should be realistic, believable, and achievable.
  • Goals should be measurable. For example instead of writing spend more time with my son, Brad, write spend 60 minutes with Brad every Saturday by taking him to breakfast.
  • Write your goals on a single sheet of paper. 
  • Unwritten goals are simply wishes.
  • Read your goals every day. Successful achievement depends on commitment to your goal. Review reinforces commitment
  • Speak, think, act, and live the traits and qualities you desire.
