The Power of Your Goals

The Power of Your Goals

One of the rudimentary laws that we were taught in IT industry while managing projects is as simple as "Plan your work and Work your Plan". While many of us successfully implement it in our projects and professional career, most of us fail to do the same with our own lives.

A study reveals that more than 85% of people fail to plan their lives or fail to have any set of achievable and documented goals with set target date. Out of the remaining minority, only 2% of them understand the true power that goals possess and hence almost 98% of us do not have the persistence to stick to them when the going gets tough and the goals "seem" to be "unachievable" at some stage or the other.

When a space shuttle is launched, 85% of the rocket fuel is consumed to cover just 10% of the target height... and the rest 15% of the fuel takes it through to the destination and back. This directly relates to the power that a goal possesses. Those who understand the immense power of goals and persist with them in spite of all obstacles do have the pleasure of seeing the results of goals being met.

The good news..it is never too late..

Lets go step by step:

First step is to have your "life goals" ready with you.. it could be in the form of 100 things you want to do before you die, or your dream diary or in any other form or shape....but just make sure that you do not lead a goalless life being driven by the circumstances rather than driving them. This step takes the maximum time. Make them SMART.

Second step is to make a step by step monthly plan to achieve those goals.

and the Third step(which also happens to be the easiest of them all) is to go and execute to the plan.

The book (From Rat Race to Financial Freedom) will show you exactly this ..how to dream, how to set goals and then how to go and execute them. If your dream is strong enough, facts do not count !! If you have the right intent, God will always show you the way and you will know how to achieve your goals. You will realize the immense power hidden in your goals.. when you persist with them !!

Go...plan your life...no one knows whether we will get another chance to achieve something of significance !!
