

Anyone who does anything worthwhile anywhere has
consciously or unknowingly followed through on a goal.



Goals keep us focused on a purpose.



Goals tells us that where we have to go.



They help us through difficult times when many others less
motivated would give up.



A person who wants to get the most out of life often has a
number of goals simmering at the same time, in their
personal and business lives.


State each goal as a positive statement: express your
goals positively - 'Execute this technique well' is a much
better goal than 'don't make this stupid mistake'
Set priorities:
Give priorities to your goals when they are
many
Set realistic goals
Set the goals that you can achieve
Be precise:
Set a precise goal, putting in dates, times and
amounts so that you can measure
achievement.



Be specific and realistic about what it is that you want to achieve. "I want to live
in a nice house," is an open-ended dream compared to, "I want to own a three
bedroom house with two bathrooms in Orange County." The more detailed you
can be about what it is that you want to do or have the better.


An example of this is a hockey goalkeeper who sets the goal of making
10 saves a game.


Don’t overreach yourself. “Your goals should be realistic, based on your resources,
skills and weaknesses,” says Vivek Sharma, a marketing professional in an FMCG
company who made a successful move into the sales side. “Play to your strengths,
and at the same time, work on your weaknesses. If required, take someone’s help.
Your new career goal should be within reach.”


You want to create goals that are in-line with your personal mission statement or
your purpose in life. Relevant goals ensure that you are dedicating your effort
towards goals that are focused towards who you are as a person. It is similar to a
college curriculum that focuses on specific courses for each major.


Set a deadline for your goals. Your deadline doesn't have to be exact, but it should
be your best guess. Your deadlines must be realistic based on your goals. If you're
a part-time worker making minimum wage, don't make your goal to have earned a
million dollars by the end of the year . Give yourself enough time to accomplish
what you've set out to achieve.
Enjoy the goal you achieved.
• If you achieved the goal too easily, make your
next goals harder
• If the goal took a dispiriting length of time to
achieve, make the next goals a little easier
• If you learned something that would lead you
to change other goals, do so
• If while achieving the goal you noticed a deficit
in your skills, decide whether to set goals to fix
this.

  1. 1. It has been found that individuals who learn the secrets of goal setting and committing to those goals throughout completion will typically achieve more of the things that they want to, and perhaps some unexpected things in their lives making life more “full” in general. 2. People who successfully implement goals and work strategically to ensure that they meet their goals often experience more success in their performances throughout life. 3. Goals can be beneficial in creating a great deal of motivation in a person. 4. Those who set goals and are successful in meeting those goals are often the ones that are more satisfied with their work, and have higher levels of self-confidence.5. Effective goal setting is beneficial in many ways because it creates a general “can do” attitude and results in higher levels of happiness throughout life
  2. To motivate, goals must take into consideration the degree to which each of the following exists: Let's look at each of these in detail. ClarityClear goals are measurable, unambiguous, and behavioral. When a goal is clear and specific, with a definite time set for completion, there is less misunderstanding about what behaviors will be rewarded. You know what's expected, and you can use the specific result as a source of motivation. When a goal is vague – or when it's expressed as a general instruction, like "Take initiative" – it has limited motivational value. ChallengeOne of the most important characteristics of goals is the level of challenge. People are often motivated by achievement, and they'll judge a goal based on the significance of the anticipated accomplishment. When you know that what you do will be well received, there's a natural motivation to do a good job. Rewards typically increase for more difficult goals. If you believe you'll be well compensated or otherwise rewarded for achieving a challenging goal, that will boost your enthusiasm and your drive to get it done.
  3. CommitmentGoals must be understood and agreed upon if they are to be effective. Employees are more likely to "buy into" a goal if they feel they were part of creating that goal. FeedbackIn addition to selecting the right type of goal, an effective goal program must also include feedback. Feedback provides opportunities to clarify expectations, adjust goal difficulty, and gain recognition. It's important to provide benchmark opportunities or targets, so individuals can determine for themselves how they're doing.These regular progress reports, which measure specific success along the way, are particularly important where it's going to take a long time to reach a goal. In these cases, break down the goals into smaller chunks, and link feedback to these intermediate milestones. Task ComplexityFor goals or assignments that are highly complex, take special care to ensure that the work doesn't become too overwhelming. People often push themselves too hard if measures aren't built into the goal expectations to account for the complexity of the task. It's therefore important to do the following: Give the person sufficient time to meet the goal or improve performance. Provide enough time for the person to practice or learn what is expected and required for success. Make sure that the conditions surrounding the goals don't frustrate or inhibit people from accomplishing their objectives. Pick one of the goals you have identified you want to accomplish
  4. Smart goals are specific. Specific goals are much more likely to be accomplished than vague ones! A specific goal can be determined by asking the following questions: WHO is involved? Smart goals don’t depend on the involvement of too many people - remember, the only person you can control is yourself, so the achievement of your goal should depend on you. WHAT do you want to accomplish? Define your aim, so you will have a clear idea of what you are aiming for. A vague ‘I want to be a better person’ is not specific enough! WHERE will you work on your goal? Identify a location or locations where most of the work towards your goal will be carried out. If your home is the main base, you may need to revamp a few things. WHEN do you hope to accomplish your goal? Set a time frame and specific deadline for completion. Having a specific end date will keep you from procrastinating. WHICH factors will affect the success of your goal? What requirements do you have, and what limitations will you have to deal with? Being prepared for obstacles makes them easier to surmount. WHY do you want to reach this goal? The reasons behind your choice of a goal are just as important as the goal itself. Looking at those reasons can often tell you quite a bit about yourself!
  5. Smart goals are measurable. You should be able to see the progress you are making. This allows you to feel the thrill of each milestone reached, and keeps you on track for completion of your goal. The way you find out if your goal is truly measurable is to ask another set of questions: How much (weight do I want to lose)? How many (laps do I want to swim)? How will I know when the goal is reached? Charts are a great way for you to track your progress and measure how much of your goal you have achieved.
  6. Smart goals are attainable. Not easy, but attainable. They aren’t based on a premise that you will suddenly become superhuman, and they don’t follow a plan of action that could be hazardous. They simply represent what you know you are capable of if you just put some effort into it. Each goal you reach makes the next one seem more attainable, so as you grow so can your goals! As you stretch to reach the goals you set for yourself, you find out you are capable of more than you ever thought possible. You set goals higher each time as you grow more confident.
  7. Smart goals are Relevant. Some say realistic but lets say relevant instead. Can you agree that winning the Indy 500 was not a relevant goal to Florence Chadwick? Goals that move here closer to her ultimate goal. Relevant meaning your goals must fit into what you are trying to accomplish in the various aspects of your life (career, finances, spiritual, relationships, etc. )
  8. Smart goals are timely. If you don’t have a time frame for the reaching of your goal, you have no real impetus. ‘Someday’ is not an acceptable deadline.
