Introduction
Every person in the world devotes countless hours to thinking of their future and their present
situation in life. Almost everyone wishes that there was something that they could change in
their life.
Whether it is their family life; their friendships; relationships or finances, everyone wants to
change something. The first step to doing that is to set goals.
However, many of us are great at trying to set goals; most of us are practically incapable of
following through with them.
Think about it. How many times have you decided on a course of action and simply didn’t
follow through with it?
That is pretty much the norm for most people.
Sometimes even setting goals at all is the harder part of accomplishing any. The easiest way
of looking at this is to think of each and every New Year.
The largest part of New Year’s celebrations are not the parties and the get-togethers; it is
actually in the resolutions.
As much as we all like to attend and talk about New Years Eve parties, the most common
source of conversation is the resolutions for the new year.
All it really is- is code talk for new goals that need to be set. The only problem is that most of
us set the same resolutions every year, and every year, we are unsuccessful. After all, if we
were successful; why would we need to keep making the same resolutions year after year?
This e-book was designed to teach you how to end the constant need to re-set the same
resolutions every year. Basically this book will be your comprehensive guide to setting and
fulfilling goals in every aspect of your life.
When I say every aspect of your life, I mean every aspect of your life. Aren’t you getting tired
of trying to set goals for yourself and always finding that you have to do it again almost every
other month?

Goal Setting Also Helps Self-Confidence
By setting goals, and measuring their achievement, you are able to see what you have done
and what you are capable of.
The process of achieving goals and seeing their achievement gives you the confidence and
a belief in yourself that you need to be able to achieve higher and more difficult goals.
Providing that you have the self-discipline to carry it through, goal setting is also relatively
easy. The following section on goal setting will give you effective guidelines to help you to
use this technique effectively.
How to choose the right goals to focus on
Sometimes setting goals alone is not the only problem that you must face. Sometimes,
choosing the right goals to begin with is harder.
Basically, you can choose to work any goal that you feel is necessary for your health,
stability and happiness.
Goal setting is nothing more than a formal process for personal planning. By setting goals on
a routine basis you decide what you want to achieve, and then move in a step-by-step
manner towards the achievement of these goals.
The process of setting goals and targets allows you to choose where you want to go in life.
By knowing exactly what you want to achieve, you know what you have to concentrate on to
do it. You also know what nothing more than a distraction is.
Goal setting is a standard technique used by professional athletes, successful business
people and high achievers in all fields. It gives you long term vision and provides you with
short term motivation.
It helps to focus your attention and knowledge which helps you to organize your resources.
By setting sharp and clearly defined goals, you can measure and take pride in the
achievement of those goals. You can see forward progress in what might previously have
seemed a long pointless effort.
By setting goals, you will also raise your self confidence, as you recognize your and ability to
meet the goals that you have set. The process of achieving goals and seeing this
achievement gives you confidence that you will be able to achieve higher and more difficult
goals later on.
Goals are set on a number of different levels. In the first place, you decide what you want to
do with your life and what large scale goals you want to achieve.
Second, you break these down into the smaller aims that you must hit so that you reach your
overall lifetime goals.
Finally, once you have your plan, you start working towards achieving it.
Beginning your goal setting plans
This section explains how to set personal goals. It starts with your lifetime goals, and then
works through a series of lower level plans culminating in a daily to-do list.
By setting up this structure of plans you can break even the biggest life goal down into a
number of small tasks that you need to do each day to reach the lifetime goals.
The first step in setting personal goals is to consider what you want to achieve in your
lifetime, as setting lifetime goals that gives you the overall perspective that shapes all other
aspects of your decision making process.
To help give you a broad, and balanced coverage of all important areas in your life, try to set
goals in some or all of the following categories:
l Artistic: Do you want to achieve any artistic goals? If so, what is it? Do you want to write a
book; paint a masterpiece, or write a song?
l Attitude: Does your own mindset hold you back from making progress? Is there any part of
the way that you behave that upsets you for example, do you talk too much? If so, set a goal
to improve your behavior or find a solution to the problem.
l Career: What level do you want to reach in your career? Is it your goal to be the boss or
own your own company someday, or do you want to be the president of someone else’s
company?
l Education: Is there any knowledge you want to acquire in particular or some area of study
that you would like to pursue? What information and skills will you need to achieve these
goals?
Family: Do you want to be a parent? If so, how are you going to be a good parent? How
do you want your partner or family members to see you?
l
l Financial: How much do you want to earn by what age in your life? What can you do to
make that come about?
l Physical: Are there any athletic goals you want to achieve, or do you want good health
deep into old age? What steps are you going to take to achieve this?
l Pleasure: How do you want to enjoy yourself? You should ensure that some of your life is
geared toward making yourself happy for no reason other than being happy
l Service: Do you want to make the world a better place by your existence? If so, how?
Once you have decided your goals in these categories, you have to assign a priority to them
if you want to succeed.
Then review the goals and re-prioritize until you are satisfied that they reflect the shape of
the life that you want to lead.
Also, you should ensure that the goals that you have set are the goals that you want to
achieve, and not what your parents, spouse, family, or employers want them to be.
Success only happens when you are working for your own well being because doing it for
others will ensure that you sabotage your own success.
How to begin to achieve your Goals
Once you have set your lifetime goals, the best thing that you can do is set a 25 year plan of
smaller goals that you should complete if you are to reach your lifetime plan.
From there you can just shorten your overall goal spans for example, you set a 5 year plan, 1
year plan, 6 month plan, and 1 month plan of progressively smaller goals that you should
reach to achieve your lifetime goals.
Each of these should be based on the previous plan. It is the best way to begin to achieve a
