2. What Are Goals?
According to Wikipedia, a Goal is: a
desired result a person or a system
envisions, plans and commits to achieve a
personal or organizational desired
endpoint in some sort of assumed
development
3. Overall Purpose
The purpose of goals is to give a certain
aspect of your life a sense improvement
and satisfaction of an intrinsic value within
yourself that otherwise would not have
been realized.
4. Goals (Types)
Long-Term Goals:
Any goals that may take up to 1, 5, or
even 10 years to achieve.
Short-Term Goals:
Any goals that may take up to 3, 6, or 9
months to achieve.
Extremely Short-Term Goals:
Goals that can be achieved within a
month.
5. Being in control of your life and
having realistic expectations
about your day-to-day challenges
are the keys to stress
management, which is perhaps
the most important ingredient to
living a happy, healthy and
rewarding life. – Marilu Henner
6. Goals (Dreams)
Learning how to achieve your goals is just
as important as knowing what parts of
your goals should be tackled first. Goals
are dreams that we want to make a reality.
7. D.R.E.A.M
Dream – Channel your wildest dreams and make sure that they are the
perfect representation of your core values. Strive to achieve dreams that aid
in your personal development in the long-term.
Realism – Your dreams can become reality, but that’s only going to reflect
how much work you’re willing to put into it.
Edit – Track your progress. Analysis incoming results. However, don’t end
when you get those results. Always push past negative results and refine
them to make even more challenging goals a reality.
Aspire – Set your goals by finding the perfect balance between Dream &
Realism. Always aim high but always root it in reality.
Methodology – The truth will set you free. The truth will help you eliminate
goals that may not have any deep purpose in your life, leaving the ones that
are truly meant to be accomplished.
8.
Creating and achieving goals is a method
of identifying and mapping out how you
are going to achieve greatness in your
individual life. Thinking your goals into
reality enables you to commit yourself to
them.
9. Goals (Commitment)
Commitment creates accountability.
Accountability makes the path to our goals more
direct. The threat of failure is heightened when
there is accountability involved, which makes
achieving your goal that much more important.
The more personal you make your motivation
and commitment statements for each goal, the
more motivated you will be to accomplish your
goal.
10. Goals (Adjustment)
Adjustment of goals is very similar to the
editing process on any essay. Always be
ready to change things that may not be
working. JUST DON’T GIVE UP. If your
goal is easy, it’ll end up being a waste of
time. If it’s too difficult, you may think that
achieving goals is a waste of time. Always
remember that the tortoise always win the
race.
11. How Goals Fail
The goal was not thought into reality. (Writing it down or
telling someone else of your plans to achieve this goal.)
No rewards met for reaching certain plateaus on the way
to achieving your goal.
Goal was too unrealistic.
Little to no commitment.
No stability (Always adjusting goals to better suit your
situation)
