Every one of us has a goal in life. Consciously, or
unconsciously, Our goals affect our life. We study hard,
save for the future, and do our best in order to have a
brighter future.
Analysts, motivational gurus and psychologists
have discovered that successful people have developed a 10-
step process on how to write down and realize their goals.
They put their goals down on paper - thereby giving
themselves the motivation to achieve what they set out to
do.
1.Attainable goals are DEFINITE and CLEAR. People are more
focused on accomplishing something if it is clear instead of
vague and ambiguous.
2.SIMPLICITY. Commit yourself to goals that are clear-cut
and unambiguous; complex goals will surely result in zero
accomplishments, if at all.
3.Attainable goals must be IMPORTANT. A goal must be
worthwhile so that you are willing to invest the time and
effort to attain it.
4.Attainable goals are PURPOSEFUL. A goal must provide
satisfaction, sense of achievement and enhancement.
5.Attainable goals are MEASURABLE. You have to set
measurable elements in your goal so you can measure your
progress towards its full realization.
6.REALISTIC. Set goals that are logical and possible to
achieve. For example, if you want to be a successful
businessperson, first you have to have a business, right?
7.CONCRETE. Visualize your goals so they become tangible
to your senses, so much so that they inspire and motivate
you to action.
8.For goals to be attainable, they must be WRITTEN. Write
down your goals on a notebook that you keep by your bed;
read it before you sleep and after you wake up. This way you
will always stay in focus of your goals. This simple ritual
significantly increases your chance of achieving your goal
effectively.
9.Attainable goals are SHARED. Sharing your goal with
people you love will allow them to participate in its
attainment by giving you support and encouragement.
10.For goals to be attainable, they must be IN TUNE WITH
YOUR PRINCIPLES IN LIFE. From childhood, we are taught by
our parents and teachers to have principles and moral values
in life. By basing our ultimate life goal on these
principles and values, by making them in tune with one
another, you have a higher probability of achieving your
goal. Avoid the pitfall of having your ultimate life goal in
conflict with your principles and moral values; make sure
that they are harmonious with one another so that achieving
them will be uncomplicated.
