Goal setting involves dreaming, planning, and work. When you use these three components of goal setting you lay the foundation for your success.
Dreaming. A big dream can propel you toward huge accomplishments. It is the dream that sets the parameters of your goal. The dream determines what you will have to do and when you will need to do it. You need to have a clear reason for doing the work that you are about to perform. Your reason why should be crystal clear and meaningful to you. When you know why then it is easier to pay the price to get what you want.
Never let the lack of means stop you from setting out to do something. It is the "why" that matters more than the "how". If your dream is big enough then you will always find a way to make it happen.
Planning. Once you are clear on what it is that you want then set aside some time to map out a plan for getting it. A good plan takes the guesswork and uncertainty out of your endeavor. When you know what you want and you know how to get it then a good portion of your success has been accomplished. Your clarity and decisive action will overcome many of the pitfalls that cause other people to fail or give up. When you are armed with a solid plan you are able to focus on the tasks that you have laid out with forethought. This way you are not swayed by circumstances.
When you develop a good plan you set yourself up for success. With a good plan you are able to predetermine the route that you are going to take.
Work. "The harder I work, the luckier I get." said Samuel Goldwyn. You can make many of your own breaks by simply working hard on a consistent basis. Realize that will not succeed in achieving your goals until you actually put in the work. Maintain consistent, as well as, persistent effort when working your plan. Your success will come as a result of your steady work. You must develop resolve to keep on working even when you feel like quitting. Maintain a constancy of purpose. Remember what you want. You will hit your goal eventually if you continue doing the work that your plan calls for. You should get a big dream, make a good plan and then diligently work your plan. |
