Yet many people travel on life’s journey with no sense of direction at all. They travel the by-ways and highways of life taking side roads, detours, even re-tracing their tracks from time to time, and while they may have exciting experiences on their journey, while they may meet interesting fellow-travellers, learn a great deal and see some pretty scenery, they may also be disappointed when they reach their final destination in life. On the other hand, those life travellers who do have a clear knowledge of where they want to go, who can point themselves in the right direction, and who know when they want to arrive, travel as the Romans did, in straight lines and with great efficiency. Most of us have careers to think of, futures to secure, people to provide for, things to do. We need maps! We need direction. We need an itinerary. In other words, we need to set ourselves goals. Goal setting is a very powerful technique that can yield strong returns in all areas of your life. Watch a video on Personal goal setting at: www.youtube.com
www.rhodes2success.com This is 10 minutes of scenes from my Setting and Achieving Goals presentation recorded live in June 2009 when I was Guest Speaker at a BNI Big Breakfast Networking event. The video shares some of the key points about Goals from a Personal Development perspective, as well as sharing information about me, and how I got to become a speaker. Goals like my other subjects are delivered for companies and events and workshops and also to the general public at my own public seminars. Other subjects include Building a Success Mindset, Limiting Beliefs and Comfort Zones, Success in a Recesion, Effective Communication.
Bit.ly Now just as important as your long range goals are your short range goals, your goals for tomorrow, next week, next month or six months from now. These are goals you can accomplish within the next year. The immediate future. We call these goals confidence builders. When you work hard, burn the midnight oil and accomplish these little things, it builds your confidence to go for your long term goals. Write down in your journal or notebook all the little things you would like to have or accomplish in the next year. Part of the fun having a list is, being able to check off something obtained or completed. We grow from two experiences. The joy of winning and the other is the pain of loosing. I am certain that part of the reason why people let goal setting slide is because it is a lot of work. You will be constantly revising your list of short range goals and long range goals. Rearranging them, refining them, establishing different priorities, adding new ones and deleting others. Writing your goals down shows you are serious and to do better, you must get serious. You don’t have to be grim; but, you do have to be serious. Hey everybody hopes things will get better; but, remember the future does not get better by hope. It gets better by plan. And hope unaided by clear plans, can finally become an illness. LloydDobson.com
