If you were to ask a President or CEO of any company he/she would tell you they set a goal to get where they are today. Goals are essential to being successful.
As with anything in life most of us have a goal in mind but never define what the goal is. If you can't state it on paper or out loud, will it ever happen?
Setting goals is an easy but time consuming task. This is how I do it. I get a piece of paper. Start writing down what you want from your job, home, things you want and stuff you would like to do for others.
Break it down into individual category's i.e. home, work, personal and stuff. First, you'll need to put them in order of importance per category. Second, pick the top of each category, then get very specific with each one. Here is an example.
I need to loose 50 lbs.I will loose 50 lbs in 6 months.
I will loose 8 lbs a month.
I will to loose 2 lbs a week.
How will I loose 2 lbs a week.
I will walk a mile every other day.
I will also put my fork down between bites.
I will also drink a full glass of water before I eat meals and snacks.
When you do this you can visualize how it's going to happen. Check mark each day what you've accomplished. At the end of the day you will feel good and you will see results.
