Setting Goals In Life, and It's Power...

Setting goals in life is dead easy I should say, but taking the step and making the right decision is quite difficult. I was thinking of writing a post about dreams, your passion to dreams.. and now I have managed to write something about it just few weeks ago. Setting goals in life and keeping your passion alive to your dreams are both of the same meaning for me. It's just a matter of doing something to become successful of everything you want in life.

Most people who are successful in life are successful because they set goals and develop step-by-step action plans for achieving them. But guess what? Only three percent of adults have clear, written goals. What a shame. Especially considering that those who do accomplish up to 10 times more than other people, including people who are more talented. In fact, a person who sets goals - and focuses on taking small steps to achieve them - will run circles around a genius who talks a lot but never does anything.

And what's true for the general population is also true for creative people. There's only one way to ensure that hopes and dreams become real - and that's by setting goals. A goal is something you want, of course. But there's more to it than that. It's also something you're willing to work toward, whether it takes days, weeks or months to achieve. In essence, goals are the steppingstones that make your dreams become real.

Goal setting is a powerful process for thinking about your ideal future, and for motivating yourself to turn this vision of the future into reality.

The process of setting goals helps you choose where you want to go in life. By knowing precisely what you want to achieve, you know where you have to concentrate your efforts. You'll also quickly spot the distractions that would otherwise lure you from your course.

More than this, properly-set goals can be incredibly motivating, and as you get into the habit of setting and achieving goals, you'll find that your self-confidence builds fast.
