Without execution, visions will remain just that - visions or dreams. Establishing goals and writing them down in ink sets the wheels in motion to creating your ideal business and ideal life.
When I meet with someone, the first thing we do is establish what the person’s long-term and short-range goals are for all areas of their life. This is not a simple task for most. Goals in and of themselves mean very little. The action taken to achieve the goal is what matters. I like to have people begin with the Wheel of Life exercise as the first step in the process of their goal setting. To complete your Wheel of Life exercise, go to https://www.accountabilitycoach.com/ and sign up for my Free Silver Membership. You will not only find the Wheel of Life exercise, you will also find many other business success resources and tools to help you achieve your goals.
For the record, I don’t believe anyone should set the goals for someone else. They might be able to ask questions and help them think but each person should come up with their own goals and timeframes they want to achieve each goal. Goals are personal decisions. Every person has to own their goals. If I set the goals for people, they will be missing the personal drive necessary to make their goals happen.
There is a school of thought that says every goal a person sets should be an S.M.A.R.T. goal. SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Tangible. Note: The “T” can also stand for Timely. I add to this a requirement that goals must have a specific target date for achievement, including a month, day, and year.
Another powerful component of goal setting relates to how you will feel once you have attained each of your goals. This adds the emotional element that helps inspire you even more. Picturing how you’ll feel after achieving your goals is like an emotional magnet that pulls you to do what you need to do, so you can experience even greater goal achievement.
