The Power Of Goals by chrisobas(m): 4:41pm On Apr 13, 2011
Whether you want to try to do something as simple as lose a few

pounds, or something as complex as starting your own business, it is

absolutely important to create and set goals, and then stick to them.

Goals are what make us strive to become better and to continue to

press onward so we can have the things we want or be the person

we have always wanted to be.

By setting goals, we create a sort of “visionary prize” for ourselves

that helps us stay on track. Without having a goal in mind, the final

result does not appear to be as clear. If we come up with some goals

and then stick to meeting them, it’s amazing what we can achieve.

There are many things you can do to help you reach your goals, and

with some simple advice and a bit of hard work, your dreams no

matter how big or small can come true.

Why Goals are Important

Goals are important because they help to give you clarity of the final

result. For example, if you want to lose 50 pounds, setting small,

incremental goals can help encourage you and keep you moving in

the right direction.

Once you reach your final goal, a true feeling of achievement takes

hold and you gain courage to try something else. Perhaps it may also

encourage you to do something much more bold, like go rock

climbing or learn a new sport. Small goals are wonderful stepping

stones towards helping us reach that final outcome.

Aside from helping you move towards the right direction, setting goals

make you more accountable to yourself. If you hadn’t set a personal

goal, there is no repercussion if you falter. On the other hand, if a

goal is already put in place, you can begin to create some rules and

boundaries to help you stick to it.

Let others know about your goal and keep them informed of your

progress. This way, someone else is aware of what you are working

toward and can help to encourage you. Any goal is designed to help

you be responsible for the mistakes you make, or for any learning

curves you might experience along the way. It helps keep us focused
with our eyes on the prize, and allows us to better understand what it

is we are trying to achieve.

Keep in mind that most successful people began their journey with

some kind of goal in mind. No famous business owner, movie star, or

sports hero began their journey expecting everything to simply fall

into place the way they wanted it. Instead, most likely they decided

what they wanted in advance, and then worked hard to get there. The

same can be applied to us in our day to day journeys: if we want

something big to happen, WE have to make it happen. This is where

the role of setting and sticking to goals comes in.

I have a well written ebook that teaches how to make some good money in no time selling information in the form of ebook. I can

authoritatively write and speak on this because it is what I do for a living even though I am a graduate. Send me a mail at
