Why set goals?
Goals help you focus your limited energy, time and financial resources. Goals make decisions clearer when the inevitable, unexpected crossroads arise.
When planning a vacation or road trip, isn't the destination the first item you usually decide? Think of setting goals as determining the destination for your future and the action plan to achieve those goals is your road map to get there.
Success and satisfaction are personally defined. In other words, only you know what equates success to YOU. Goals should reflect the person you are and what is most important to you. Some define success in material or monetary terms and others define it in terms of the experience. Both are equally valid. Regardless of how you define your goals, having a clear picture of where you want to end up and an action plan to get there, will allow you to make better decisions along the way making the trip much more enjoyable.
