Goal-setting is an absolute must for people who want to succeed, find their true purpose, and create joy in their lives. Without clear goals, you will not have a clear direction on where you’re heading in your life. When you know your life purpose, determine your vision, convert your desires into achievable goals and then act on them, you’re virtually guaranteed success.
Ask yourself, what do you want to accomplish, what do you want to experience? What do you want to acquire? Who do you want to be?
Follow this simple acrostic, SMART,and you’ll be well on your way.
S- Specific: Be specific, answer questions instead of creating ones. Make sure the goal is very specific.
M- Measurable: Include specific dates and exact amounts in your goal. An example is, I’d like to have 50K in recurring revenue by July, 2018.
A- Attainable: Your goal must be achievable and I recommend some breakthrough goals to get you there as well. These goals will really push you to attain.
R- Realistic: Does your reveal who you really are, your true purpose? Is it in lines with the culture that you have created?
T- Time-Bound: Have deadlines and create target dates for motivation and accountability.
This week the Whole Life Challenge says, “Making strides toward your heartfelt goals or intentions is likely one of the most fulfilling things you can do with your life. The goal of this practice is that you can not only achieve what is important to you now, but that you can become better at simply identifying what actually is important for you to pursue.”
NOW is the time to set those goals.
Go get it!
