If you don’t know where you are going, how will you know how to get there? If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires hope. Unleash the Power of Goal Setting!
What does this mean?
Well if you want to be happy, figure out specifically what that means to you. Does it mean working from home and making XX amount of income? Does it mean having an office space to go to? You can’t work towards something if you don’t know what you are working towards. And be specific – saying “I want to be happy” is too general – WHAT makes you happy? What makes you feel fulfilled? You have to be as specific as “having lunch once a week with a new friend in my new town” or “I want to have $800 for a trip by January” – these are specific goals. And while these are personal goals, you need to apply the same principle to your professional life. “I want to have 50 new clients within a year” is one that may apply to you. Once you identify what you are working towards, you can map out how to get there.
The most successful people I’ve ever worked with or learned from set goals. They aren’t guided by the directions that are handed to them, they tell the world where they are going, and the world can either ride along, or find another route, but these people know what they want to accomplish.
This often means identifying your values and then ranking them. Yes, money is important, but so is time with your kids, so one has to outrank the other. Goal setting or strategizing will help you to identify what is important and what is irrelevant, and once you identify those, you can direct all of your energy to only what matters!
That’s the kind of clarity and focus that sets your manifesting powers on high!
