Set goals that lead to success

The road of life is not always straight but it is up to you to struggle and make it straight. By setting and achieving desired goals, people discover their purpose in life. Before setting your goals, be specific; know what you want and when you want to achieve it. Doing so helps you to focus on success. The fear of failure makes some people set their goals so low. However, do not underestimate yourself. Be positive when setting your goals and believe you can achieve them. Set goals with measurable progress. Putting in place a criterion for measuring progress helps you to stay on track and make remarkable achievement within a given period. We should always have goals in our lives and plan to reach them. This can helps you to work hard and keep away from things that might stop us from reaching our goals. We need to think critically about what we have done in our lives so far, and what we want to do in the near future. This should follow what can help us reach our destination of success. Remember that goals are dreams and hopes for the future. They include our plans for a future career, opportunities, friends and all sorts of ventures in life. However, set goals cannot be achieved without purpose in life. Purpose is an important factor that fields great benefits in any person’s life. It provides motivation to constantly pursue the dream that one holds dear even in the face of negativity. It helps to objectively look for solutions to problems and view challenges as a stepping-stone to success and a better life. Having a purpose makes one more selective and conscious of the people that he/she networks with. The type of people with whom one networks and associates with plays a significant role in helping individuals get to their desired goals. The wrong association in some cases may bring destruction and discouragement that could possibly result in failure to fulfill a given purpose. Lastly, we need to work hard, rely on support from our friends and families in order to reach our destination. dennistony8@yahoo.com
