Setting goals for your life is very important. You get to choose what you want to accomplish in your lifetime, and setting goals help you get there. It helps you create focus, and achieve more.

There are 3 types of goals you can set.

1. Short term goals – 1 to 2 year period
2. Intermediate term goals – 2 to 5 year period
3. Long term goals – 5 to 10 year period

What areas can you set your goals for?

• Family Goals
• Financial Goals
• Health Goals
• Spiritual Goals

When you set you goals, make sure they are bite-size achievable goals. What I mean by this is, let’s say you are making $40,000/year right now. Don’t set your short-term goal to make $1,000,000/year. It can be your intermediate or long-term goal.

Make your goals specific. The more you write down your goal in detail, the better. It will crystallize your vision. For example, don’t just say, I want a house. Write down, I want a brown colored, colonial with 5 bedrooms, 2 car garage on a 3 acre property.

Write a date next to your goal. So, you know when you want them accomplished by. If you don’t write the date, you don’t have a deadline. You could be pursuing a short-term goal for the rest of your life.

If possible, inter-connect your goals. Make your short-term goals part of your intermediate goals. Make your intermediate goals, part of your long-term goals.

Keep those goals in your pocket and look at the several times a day. This will program your subconscious mind to focus on achieving your goals.

And finally, once you accomplish your goals, set new goals. Because, if a person is not working towards a goal, he is not living life to its fullest.

Hope this helped. Let me know what you think.
