Importance of setting goals

To reiterate the essentials, the importance of goal setting falls in three categories:

1. 
   It helps reduce stress and improve performance on your journey
   
2. 
   It creates a sense of progress measurement, which then provides motivation to continue
   
3. 
   It helps solidify your vision of success, and works as the architect for your One Thing (that which you covet most).

Are Goals Important?

By: Angel Jaramillo

April 7,2017

Goals are important in the sense that they give you direction in life. It is better to have a simple, or not so important goal, than having no goals at all.

Having goals is like having a map. You know where you are heading, and this gives you zest, motivation, more energy and a reason to get up in the morning. You become more alive.

Do you have goals? I don’t mean wishes. A real goal is not a wish. It is something, into which you will put all your efforts and energy, so you can achieve it.

A goal does not have to be something big. Not everyone wants to achieve something big, on a major scale. Most people are satisfied with simple goals, and that’s okay. They want a comfortable, happy and healthy life, and this is possible and within reach. Setting a goal, does not necessarily mean striving for something colossus, simple goals are no less important than big ones.

Only a certain percentage of the population is really interested in major goals and is willing to do everything to achieve them.

A goal could be becoming a millionaire, owning a chain store, or become a famous actor or singer. However, most goals are not on such a scale.

Most goals are:

• 
  Finding a new job.
  
• 
  Earning enough money to support your family.
  
• 
  Buying a pair of trousers.
  
• 
  Getting a new laptop.
  
• 
  Finding the time to meditate every day.
  
• 
  Learning a foreign language.
  
• 
  Losing a few pounds of weight.
  
• 
  Going to a movie on a certain day with a certain person.
  
• 
  Training at a gym regularly.
  

These, and similar goals are important goals, and are what most people want to achieve.

Of course, you might seek greater aims, and that’s okay.
