Tips for Goal Setting

 

You will never get anything if you do not know what you want. Before you apply the tips for goal setting you need first to know what kind of goal you want to achieve in a given period of time.

·         Set a goal to be achieved- You have the right to make choices in life as well as in setting a goal. Learn to set goals in life and do your best to attain it. Do not allow fear and circumstances to hinder you in achieving your goals.

·         Be specific about the goal you set – You are free to choose what sort of goal you wish to achieve. May it be short or long term. Whatever it is, try to specifically choose what you really want to achieve at that period.

·         Established deadline for that goal – A goal with specific timeline have a greater chance to be achieved.  It’s like making an assignment, if the professor tells you to submit the assignment on the next meeting, then that’s what you are going to do. It is the same principle in achieving your goal, set a deadline and have your goals achieved!

·         If you want to set a goal then the best time is right now – Do not wait till you run out of time.

·         Share your goals – Do not forget to share your goals with people you care about, the people who inspire you. After all you are doing it for yourself and for them as well. Once they know your goals, they are going to motivate you to achieve.

·         Believe in yourself – A person who does not believe in himself achieved nothing! Everything starts with in one self, with your self confidence and self esteem. Your confidence will motivate you to try harder till you attain your goals.

·         Follow the steps you need to take in achieving your goals. In everything you do, you need steps and guidelines or else you will get lost. In achieving your goals, you really need to follow the necessary steps in order for you to get things done.

·         Be Optimistic. Speak out and Think – always look at the bright side of life. No matter what the circumstances are, do not be pulled by them. Do not let them pull the better out of you. Do not let them drive your mind. Remember an optimistic attitude will bring you on top of success! Most successful people I know are real optimistic about life. Be like that too!

You said:

"Do your work as if you would never have the chance to work with it again. In everything you do, give your best. That’s the best approach to life. "

This is perfect advice.

It saves time if you do things right- give your best. (you don't have to go and do it over) Doing what we can do today instead of putting it off for tomorrow- Time saver AGAIN. I have got to say that time is a most valuable resource we have and it is to our benefit when we use it wisely.

Moreover, when applied to our relationships, our personal life will improve also.

This hub reminds me of college essay question. I think we have a question about goal setting. If only I had read this earlier, could probably add a few points in essay exam.

The important thing is to strive towards a goal which is not immediately visible. That goal is not the concern of the mind, but of the spirit.

I think one of the biggest hurdles I have to cross is being optimistic. I tend to put a "hopefully" at the end of things because I always want to brace myself for the worse, and it really gets in the way of my goals in life. But I've been working on being positive and I'm seeing results =)
