Have you set inspirational goals for your life?

There is a saying by Lewis Carroll the author of ‘Alice in Wonderland’, that states, ‘If you don’t know where you are going any road will take you there.’ What this means is that if you don’t have a destination, you can wander all over the place and accomplish what you wanted – that is nothing.

It is the same thing with your business. If you can’t answer these questions right now, you need to answer them very soon;

• Why are you in business?
• Who are your prime customer’s?
• Why are they your prime customer focus?
• What are the results that you need to achieve this day?
• What are the results that you need to achieve this week?
• What are the results that you need to achieve this year?
• What will be the impact if you don’t achieve those results?

My final question is; when will you know the answers to these questions?

Have you lost sight of your goal?

Or do you have a goal?

I strongly believe that if you don’t have a goal, you will wander aimlessly. It is the wandering aimlessly that can destroy your life. Yes, I said destroy. The reason for saying that 'destroy' word is because if we don’t have goals or objectives, we have know reason to take action. Taking action is the key to feeling alive and contributing to others.

What is one goal you can set for this coming week? Remember it must be S.M.A.R.T., which stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Trackable.

Can you see how setting goals can make a difference in your life? If not e-mail me at timothygibney@sympatico.ca and I will send you a more detailed description of goal setting.
