| Do you currently have written goals for these areas of your life ? |
- Home and Family
- Financial and Career
- Physical and Health
|
- Educational
- Social
- Spiritual
|
- Your goal must be something you really want.
|
| Remember, when you found that special person in your life ? Your only thoughts were that your life could not be worthwhile without him or her. Now you are spending your lives together. It's that kind of passionate determination that makes a goal achievable, otherwise it's just a dream. |
- Your goal must be written in detail.
|
"I want to have a more meaningful career." is not a goal. Now, " I want a career in which I will make a minimum of $100,000 per year in an environment which I enjoy and have the opportunity to help other people, while I satisfy the financial needs of my family and build a better life for myself." . . . that's a clearly defined goal.
|
- Your goal must be high enough, yet achievable.
|
For example, to say that you want to be the CEO of a large corporation, when you only have a ninth grade education is high enough, but without further education, it's just not achievable. You should aim high and even if you miss by a little, you will certainly be better off.
|
- Keep your written goal positive.
|
| Make your written goal what you want, not what you want to leave behind. |
- Your goal must be measurable.
|
In order to make $100,000 per year income, you normally must make $1,923 on a weekly basis; $8,333 on a monthly basis; and $25,000 on a quarterly basis. Now, if you hit the lottery, this will change. The point here is, even if you miss your goal on a weekly basis, you can make adjustments to insure that you are on schedule with your goal by the end of the month or quarter. Here is where a lot of goals get trashed. Oftentimes when we miss our monthly goal, we just give up and go back to business as usual. Don't fall into this rut.
