Goals
Some of us have them some of us don’t. What is a goal? A
goal is a written objective or purpose that makes up a detailed
road map of how to make your dreams come true.
All goals stem from a dream. First we dream a
dream.
We may want a particular type of car, more friends, or
greater traveling experience.
From the dream we must break the whole down into small
steps, the “how to” of how to get there.
Goals are the “how to” that will lead you to the end result
of your dream.
A goal is more than just a dream. A goal is a dream that is
being acted upon.
Growing up throughout middle school and high school I would
hear a teacher or guest speaker mention goals however, I am not
the type of guy to waste my time on activities that I do not
deem to be important.
If you tell me the relevance that a particular activity has
to do with my life then I will jump on the task with everything
that is within me. Know as a result of life I understand the
importance of goals. In a quick summary you have to know where
you are going in order to get there. Most individuals will
state admittedly that they do not want to end up at the same
income level, relational fulfillment, or health as their
parents however statistically the odds are in your favor to end
up exactly like them.
The reason is most people only know what they do not wish to
become, not where they want to go to. Because they are focused
so much on not being poor, not being unhealthy and so on they
become exactly those things because that is what they are
focusing on. However, we can change that by simply setting
definite, clearly defined goals.
