Everybody wants to be successful in life. In whatever we do, our primary aim is to be successful in it. But we realize that often time, our plans take another turn, in the course of execution, or fail totally to yield desired results. This is always the case when we fail to put certain measures in place, or act in ignorance of important steps and considerations.

Consider when you set goals for the year, and at the end of the year, it turns out that you are yet to achieve any of the goals you had set. This exposes a lapse in harmonizing one's personal discipline and attitude, with goals-both personal and organizational.

In this article, I will outline 5 important tips for successful goal setting and entrepreneurship. These tips can help us set viable goals, and effectively implement courses of action that will lead to the achievement of such goals.

1. Setting SMART Goals:

Goals define our role and generally challenge us to be better. It also motivates us to be unwavering and persistent on a particular task.

Therefore, goals that will yield positive results must be SMART. This means that our goals must be;

a. Specific.

b. Measurable.

c. Relevant.

d. Timely and

e. Attainable.

2. Organization:

Our business goals should be broken down into smaller goal sets, with specified role requirements, and carefully assigned to different people to carry out.

However, you should ensure people who are responsible for a particular role, are trained to efficiently and effectively carry out their task. You should also oversee the processes to ensure they remain in harmony with set goals.

3. Efficiency:

In carrying out actions that could lead to the achievement of goals, there is a great need to be efficient and knowledgeable enough in assigned roles. Hence, regular training and evaluation is required to ensure utmost efficiency in a goal getting process.

4. Accountability:

This is a very vital aspect of our existence. We need to be accountable to ourselves and others too.

The African Managers Initiative Team suggests that having an Accountability Partner can address the lapse between our desire to be accountable, and actually being accountable.

what is an accountability partner?

An accountability partner is a person who coaches another person in terms of helping the other person keep a commitment. credit to wikipedia

This Accountability Partner should be someone you trust and respect- preferably a senior colleague or a partner. He/she should be one who can hold you responsible to your goals, and speak up without fear when you lose focus or go wrong. This latest invention by the African Managers Initiative has shown high level of practicability and success.

5. Time Management:

No matter where you are or what you do, time is always of essence, and should be smartly managed for optimum benefits. I will write about time management in my next article. But it is worthy of mention here, as everything I have outlined above could fail if time is not properly and smartly managed and used.

Research shows that every one hour wasted amounts to a corresponding hourly income loss. This is essentially true in core areas of our business life, as inputs directly determine expected output-all other things being equal.

We should therefore be keen on deploying the best suited time management technique for our unique goals and roles. This, I believe is the engine with which every other measures work

So that's in text citation abi? No connotations, no dates.

And you make it sound.like the only ideas lifted was the "accountability partner". So the others are generic and were researched by you?

You cannot school me on citations. And FYI, what you did was not close to a scholarly reference.

You go on making this writeup published. You still do not understand what plagiarism means.

Next time, accord a well detailed reference to AMI at the beginning of such a write up.

Good day!!!

Having said that, I wish to add that success starts from the mind...in other words, there is a science of success. Otherwise, everyone of us would have been successful. But one wonders why only a few people are successful and yet many more (over 90%) of the people are not success.

There is a certain formular to success, until and unless you grasp and stay committed to this formular, success will keep eluding so many people.

Food for thought!
