WHY SHOULD I SET GOALS?

Saying you're going to have $500 million by the following year is NOT goal setting! Although it might sound like you have a goal, not developing a realistic path toward fulfilling it will, unfortunately, turn your supposed goal into what it really is--a pipe dream. And pipe dreams are rarely realized. Goals, however, when properly set can usually be met. Through learning, and practicing, the step-by-step routine of goal setting, your pipe dreams of today will become tomorrow's reality.

Goal setting is the term commonly given for the process of setting and working towards specific, defined goals. Pretty simple really. What is difficult, however, is getting people to sit down and actually do it, even though it fits with human nature. When we want to go on a trip, we look at a map and plan our route. If we get lost, we recheck our map. When we want to build a model, we orderly follow the steps. When the lawn needs cutting, we set aside the time, put on our lawn-cutting clothes, clear the lawn of hoses etc., go to the mower, start it up, and proceed to cut the lawn in a pattern we've previously determined is best. When all is done, our human nature wins out: we reach our destination, the model is correctly built, and the lawn gets cut.

By learning the skills of goal setting, developing success habits, and maintaining a goal-setting routine you will have the map to success. A map that will guide you straight to the achievement of all the goals you desire and deserve.


WHERE DO I BEGIN?

You can start by getting it into your mind that you deserve success, and that success is something you CAN achieve. If you believe you can reach what you define as success, and are prepared to determine the path towards that success, you will succeed.

If you don't believe you can reach a goal, it will remain a pipe dream as much as if you didn't bother planning the route to the goal, or do what's required to get there.

If you are willing to accept that you can be successful, that you'll enjoy being successful, and if you are willing to establish and work on an exhilarating, enjoyable, and rewarding path to your goals, then we're confident you'll reach those goals.
