Weekly Motivators - Subscription Thought of the week: Goals are dreams with deadlines On New Year’s day I contributed to an article in my local paper that discussed setting New Year’s resolutions. The focus of the article was to encourage you to change your 'resolutions' to 'goals' and add time lines to your goals, to ensure that you achieve them. I am going to further investigate how to set goals, and how you can give yourself every opportunity of achieving them. So, why is goal setting so important – because without goals, any achievements occur by chance, not by design. Without goals, direction cannot be maintained and focusing on desired outcomes for long enough to see them come to fruition is extremely difficult. Yes, goal setting provides outcomes, direction and focus, and they allow you to monitor progress constantly. Remember that anything that can be measured can be monitored and anything that can be monitored can be managed (or improved upon). It is the same with goal setting; with well written goals, you can track progress and make any changes that are required to ensure that you achieve them.
