GOALS - 2007.......HAPPY NEW YEAR
HAVE A FANTASTIC NEW YEAR!
I realize that all of us or most of us were extremely busy planning for the Holiday Season, going shopping crazy. We are all into the gifting scene and concerned about what our family and friends will think about our gift. This is truly the season of GIVING. However……………
WHY NOT GIVE SOMETHING TO YOURSELF FIRST?
A SUCCESSFUL 2007! AN AMAZING YEAR NEXT YEAR!
Which now brings me to the main issue that I wish to talk about - GOAL SETTING. Have you heard people say? DARE TO DREAM BIG – What are they referring to?
GOALS!
DREAMS!
VISION!
OBJECTIVES!
WHERE YOU WISH TO BE?
WHERE YOU WANT TO GO?
Goal Setting is not just related to Quotas for Sales people, but refers to Goals related to every aspect of a Human Being’s life. Goals can be Social, Financial, Emotional and Spiritual in nature. They can also be Strategic, Tactical, Long Term or Short Term. Alternatively they can be Life Goals, Career Goals, Relationship Goals, Parenting Goals, etc.
Goals are very much like the Lighthouse in the sea on a dark night that helps the ships to steer into docks safely. They are like the leading light in a person’s life. Goals help us to stay on path to achieving whatever it is that we want to achieve. They prevent us from drifting away in the Flow of Life.
For this discussion I would like to focus on Career Goals and see how to go about achieving them.
Start by dreaming big, thinking without boundaries, assuming that for a moment you cannot FAIL.
Ask yourself these questions.
What activities do you like or enjoy most?
What are you passionate about in your life?
What makes you happy?
What makes you tick?
What do people come to you for, most of the time?
Where would you be in your Job/Career five or even ten years from today?
Would you like to pursue your education? Which field?
What role would you be playing?
What would be your area of expertise?
Which industry would you be associated with?
What level in an organization do you see yourself at?
What type of an organization would you be leading?
How much money are you making then?
What kind of a Lifestyle would you be living?
What car would you be driving?
Where would you want to go for a vacation?
Which area would you be living in?
What kind of a home are you living in?
How much time would you be spending with your family?
How much time would you be spending with yourself?
The beauty of this exercise is that you will see how you move from Career Goals to your Personal Life Goals. They are intertwined and what I mean by that is – as you achieve your primary goals, the result of that achievement, spills over into other areas of your life and you actually start fulfilling your other objectives as well.
The Secret to all of this is to:
THINK REALLY BIG
DREAM WITHOUT BARRIERS
and then as the next step VISUALISE the DREAM as though you are LIVING IT in the PRESENT. Basically write down on card, statements, that express your enjoying your goal in the present. Eg. I am loving my job as a General Manager that pays $100k + Benefits OR I love my Black colored LEXUS. This is a very powerful exercise, as it will align forces in the universe that you are unaware of, to work in a manner that is in sync with your GOALS.
I know you might be thinking that TALK IS CHEAP. Well, let me tell you something. Following the same principles that I talk about, I have not only doubled my Income from my Job every year for the last 3 years, but have also achieved fulfillment and happiness in the process. I am not just wealthier financially, but also rich emotionally and much closer to my family.
So Friends, take my advice and INVEST some time in yourself and make 2007 an AMAZING YEAR FOR YOU!
GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR LOVED ONES.
