If you don't have goals, you have nothing to work for. You have no direction. So you're like a boat out in the ocean with no one at the helm. You're just drifting.
Setting goals gives you clarity of purpose. But they're not always set in stone. You can always change them, but it's better to make them high enough that you challenge yourself but not so high that they discourage you.
Ultimately we would all like to be number one, but realistically only one person can do that. I'm number one in class, which means I'm the only person who hasn't dropped in my class of who started on the date I did. This doesn't mean that everyone who started when I did is no longer here, but that others in my class are in a lower bracket than me. I set that goal a long time ago and have achieved it. Some of my other goals are getting close to being achieved, but this just means that I need to work harder in these specific areas.
When you take the time to set goals you will be able to see at a glance what you need to work on the most. They're simply a road map that you can follow to get where you want to be, months, a year, or years from now.
What kind of car would you be driving? What kind of house would you live in? Where would you want to live?
What really makes it fun is that now you can put up pictures of your goals. Find that car you want and take a picture, or the house you want, or how much money you want to make.
SFI makes this so easy! Take a few moments and set these up, even if it's just for fun! You'll start to see them happening in your life. Dream it, believe it, live it!
