0Let us start with the question “WHY GOAL SETTING”. Well, the answer is profoundly simple because it is utterly profound. And the answer is that if there is no harbour to seek, then probably every wind is the right wind and in the end, the ship will never reach any destination and might get lost in the sea. Goal setting is a mechanism that keeps track of our journey and lets us know whether we made any progress or are we still lurking around our old self.
The truth is that if you want to achieve something in life which resonates with you at a deeper level, you have to set some goals. One has to start somewhere, and the start should be small but consistent. Goals keep you focused, and as the saying goes “Energy flows where the Focus goes”, they are directly related to our success.
To begin your journey into 2019, you may start with setting your personal goals in the following categories. I call them the OCTET of life
- Health Goals
- Career/ Business/ Professional Goals
- Financial Goals
- Relationships/ Family Goals
- Self Development Goals
- Spiritual Goals
- Holiday Goals
- Philanthropic Goals
It’s always good to know things, “But Knowing is just Knowing, Doing is Doing”. As Earl Nightingale says “Success is the pursuit of a worthy idea”, let that idea for this year be to manage your OCTET of life.
