DEFINITION OF GOALS
- GOAL —– THE POINT MARKING AT THE END OF RACE OR ANY SPORTS OR OBJECT OF EFFORT OR AMBITION, OR DESTINATION
- GOAL SETTING —– IT IS THE PROCESS OF DECIDING WHAT YOU WANT TO ACCOMPLISH. DEVISING A PLAN TO ACHIEVE THE RESULT ONE DESIRE.
WHY ONE REQUIRES TO SET GOALS
YOU TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE —- SETTING DIRECTION
YOU FOCUS ON IMPORTANT POINT — SETTING DEDICATION
YOU WILL MAKE GOOD DECISIONS — MAKING DECISIONS
YOU WILL DELIVER TASK EFFICIENTLY — EFFICIENCY
YOU WILL BECOME SELF CONFIDENCE— CONFIDENCE HIGH
YOUR PROGRESS/SUCCESS RATE HIGH— DEADLINES KEPT
YOUR ABILITY TO REACH YOUR GOALS — BE THE ACHIEVER
EVERY” DREAM OR DESIRE” WHEN CONVERTED INTO “ GOAL”
HAS A DEADLINE TO BECOME REALITY/ HAS AN EXPIRY DATE.
WHY DO SET GOALS FAIL?
YOU HAVE NOT PRECISELY DEFINED YOUR GOAL—NOT GIVEN
ENOUGH CLARITY BY DEFINING YOUR DREAM, ITS SHAPE, FORM, COLOR, HOW IT LOOKS,WHAT IS THE TIME FRAME NEEDED?
CLARITY IS POWER AND MAGNATE, CLEAR MIND CAN SEE THE
GOAL.TO AVOID FAILURE WRITE DOWN IN GREATER CLARITY– CLARITY.
WHEN GOALS ARE NOT REALISTIC, KEPT ON CHANGING, AND IF YOU DONOT OWN THE GOAL YOU SET (OWNERSHIP) AND DO NOT BECOME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE GOAL, FAILURE RATES ARE HIGH.
SET YOUR GOAL WITH — DIRECTION—DEDICATION—DETERMINATION, DISCIPLINE, AND DEADLINE ( TIMELINE TO COMPLETE) TO GET SUCCESS.
WHY MOST PEOPLE DO NOT SET THE GOALS?
SUPPOSE SOCCER TEAMS ARE CHARGED UP TO PLAY THE GAME
AND SOMEBODY TAKES AWAY GOAL POSTS OF BOTH ENDS AND GOAL LINES ALSO WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE GAME? HOW DO YOU KEEP THE SCORES OF BOTH TEAMS AND WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE GAME? THERE IS NOTHING LEFT IN THE GAME TO SEE.
NO ONE WILL BOARD THE TRAIN WITHOUT KNOWING THE DIRECTION OF TRAIN OR STATIONS WHERE IT WILL STOP. THEN WHY PEOPLE GO THROUGH THE LIFES JOURNEY WITHOUT KNOWING DESTINATION, DIRECTION, TIMELINE OF JOURNEY OR KNOWING THE PURPOSE OR GOAL OF THE JOURNEY.
WHY MOST PEOPLE DO NOT SET THE GOALS?
THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE DREAMS OR GOALS BUT DO NOT SET THE GOAL DUE TO FLG REASONS :–
1. FEAR OF FAILURES. 2. FAILURE OF SUCCESS.
3. FEAR OF REJECTIONS. 4. FAILURE OF CONFIDENCE.
5. FEAR OF ESTEEM LOW. 6. LACK OF POS. ATTITUDE.
7. LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. 8. LACK OF AMBITION.
9. LACK OF INITIATIVE. 10. INFLUENCED BY IGNORANCE.
11 .PROCRASTINATION 12.LACK OF FOCUS .

WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF GOALS ?
THERE ARE TWO CATEGORIES OF GOALS —-

WHEN YOU FOCUS ON THE PROBLEM” YOU LOOSE “GOAL” BUT
WHEN YOU FOCUS ON THE “GOAL” YOU LOOSE THE “PROBLEM”
DON’T CHANGE YOUR “GOAL” INSTEAD CHANGE YOUR
“STRATEGY” TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOAL SUCCESSFULLY.
DEFINE STEPS FOR GOAL SETTING
GOAL SETTING CAN BE DONE IN TWO PARTS PROCESS.
- HAVE ABSOLUTE CLARITY IN DECIDING WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, i.e CONVERT YOUR DREAM INTO GOAL WITH CLEARLY DECIDING YOUR DIRECTION WHERE YOU WANT TO GO AND YOUR DESTINATION WHER YOU WANT TO REACH.

- ALWAYS FOLLOW THE DIRECTION WITH CORRECTION IF NEEDED TO ACHIEVE IN SET TIME FRAME IF YOUR GOAL IS SET” S.M.A.R.T”
REASONS FOR SETTING GOALS
Have you ever wondered why some people never achieve
SUCCESS in spite of hard work?
Why same people are always frustrated with reversals and failures in crisis and difficult period?
Why people who are successful are different in their approach and attitude, compared to those who are failures?
Why ordinary people have performed extraordinarily in life, BECAUSE they have determined to SET GOALS and realize their SET GOAL with PATIENCE, PASSION, and with POWER of knowledge?
HOW GOAL STATEMENT CAN BE MADE?
1. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE—GOAL DESRIPTION ?
2. WHY DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE– JUSTIFICATION ?
3. HOW DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE — ROAD MAPS ?
4. WHEN DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE– TIME FRAME?
5. WHERE DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE — DESTINATION?
6. ALL DREAMS IF THEY EMERGE FROM STRONG DESIRES, AND ALL DREAMS IF CONVERTED INTO GOAL WITH A DEADLINE (TIMELINE), THE RESULTS WE CAN GET IS GOAL TURNED INTO REALITY.
SET S.M.A.R.T. GOALS IN LIFE
IF GOALS SET ARE NOT REACHABLE, REALISTIC, ACHIEVABLE,
WITHIN A SPECIFIED TARGETED TIME FRAME ONE CAN NOT MEASURE ITS EFFECTIVE SUCCESS RATE .S.M.A.R.T MEANS—
S === SPECIFY GOAL IN DETAILS WITH A VIVID DESCRIPTION.
M === MEASURE THE GOALS PERFORMANCE TIME AND AGAIN.
A === ACHIEVABLE GOALS ARE TO BE PLANNED.
R === SET REALISTIC, REACHABLE, ACCESSIBLE GOALS.
T === SET TIME LINE TO GET RESULTS AND GOAL ACHIEVED.
