Setting Personal Goals
If you are new to goal setting, then the information given in this
series of articles may be hard to digest the first time round. So
in this final part, I am going to summarize what you have learnt
so far about how to set goals and highlight key important
points. This should help to improve your understanding of goal
setting.
If you would like to see more detailed information about how to
set goals, then view the links at the bottom of this article or

Why Learn How To Set Goals?
All successful people set clearly
defined specific goals. This gives their
life power, purpose and a sense of
direction.
Without goals it is unlikely you will
make any significant progress in life,
so learning how to set goals really is a skill should take the time
to master.
Personal Goals Require Daily Attention
A goal is simply the process of
moving from where
you are, to where you

want to be.
Goals therefore
require constant
attention and daily work. You can do this by using
affirmations, visualization and by rewriting your
goals.
These 3 processes will strengthen goal intensity and clarity,
thereby driving them further into your subconscious.
Learning How To Set Goals Will Motivate You To Achieve Success
Even the laziest person can be motivated into taking action if
they want something badly enough. Take Homer Simpson for
example, he’s very lazy! But offer him donuts or beer, and he
will do just about anything to get them!
This is why it’s so important to set goals that are aligned with
your basic values. If chosen correctly, goals should energize and
motivate you.
Every step you take towards your goal will then give you a
feeling of accomplishment, making you feel good about yourself
and raise your self esteem.
Learning How To Set Goals Will Give Your Life Direction And Purpose
Most people are unhappy because they don’t know where they
are going in life, and so their lives lack meaning and purpose.
As a result they lack an inner sense of self worth, often
becoming angry and taking it out on
other people, drugs or alcohol.
As soon as you learn how to set goals
and start working towards achieving
those goals, you will begin to feel in
control of your life. You will be taking it where you want to go,
rather than drifting aimlessly from day to day.

Learning How To Set Goals Will Make You Forget Your Worries
You can only hold 1 thought at a time. If you are constantly
thinking about your goals and what you want to achieve, you
will automatically remove doubts and worries from your mind.
This is known as the law of substitution.
It does take a lot of discipline to do this, but if you can train
yourself to concentrate on your goals for 30 days (the time it
takes to develop a new habit) you will create new thought
patterns and therefore new habits of behavior.
Learning How To Set Goals Will Program Your Mind For Continued
Success
If you can learn how to set goals and
then achieve 1 major goal, you will
automatically transfer this pattern of
success into your subconscious. Your
mind will then use this information to
create new patterns of success for your
future activities.
This is why successful people tend to go from one success to
another. Their mind has been programmed for success, which
drives their future thoughts and actions to produce further
successes. In other words, they succeed by succeeding.
