Successful results occur in our personal lives and in our careers when we are proactive in setting and achieving goals.  When striving to accomplish a meaningful objective,Goals Establish Clarity, Purpose and the Mindset for Success Articles the path is much clearer and easier to pursue when it is thoroughly considered and well constructed.

The person who has taken the time to learn the process of developing and implementing inspiring and ambitious goals is the one most likely to bask in the success of reaching their objective.

Goals establish purpose and the mindset for success.  Powerfully written goals lift, motivate and expand our view of what is possible and accelerate meaningful and worthwhile objectives in our lives.  With authentic and concrete tangible goals, backed by commitment and plans to achieve them, we are encouraged to keep moving forward even when we are discouraged or when things seem insurmountable.

A well-conceived goal and an enthusiastic attitude to match provide clarity for concentrating on both the mental and physical energy necessary to realize expectations.  Without definitive goals, the best intentions are only randomly addressed --- which usually leads to "hit or miss" results.  Setting worthwhile goals and taking action to accomplish them works!

When developing and implementing a goal:

•  Define exactly what is to be accomplished.•  Understand why the goal is important.•  Believe the goal is important and that achieving it is deserved.•  Do NOT proceed with a goal that is vague or does not inspire action.•  Establish both short and long term goals.•  Prioritize multiple goals.•  Create a clear criteria to measure progress.•  Utilize the five senses to embed the goal in the subconscious mind.•  Find ways to repeatedly and frequently bring the goal to mind.•  Know that asking for help can be very supportive.•  Periodically revisit the written goal for possible updating.•  Work steadfast to achieve the goal and celebrate when it is accomplished.  •  Set a new goal.
