What Is The Reason You Should Set Goals?

.

Have you ever watched someone drive around a city looking everywhere and not seeming to be headed in any particular direction? Have you ever wondered whether they may be lost?

I am sure it is quite obvious to you that you would never venture into a strange or unfamiiar city without having a road map sitting close by. But, how many people do you know that do not have any kind of road map for their life? Obviously, you look at a road map to determine where it is you want to end up. You want to know what road to get on, or what exit to take. Goals that are written down accompanied by specific actions and a timetable is the very roap map one needs for life. If not, any direction is as good as the next one.

Here is another example that makes the point. Have you gone to the grocery store without a list of what you need?

If you have no list, you have no focus on what it is you need or want you want. You simply wander around picking this and that hoping that is what you need.

A grocery list, just like a set of goals, allows you to focus on what you need not on what you may think you need.

Well, why bother setting goals?
Goals give you a compass in order to direct your path through life. Goals focus your thoughts and actions on areas that have precise purpose and meaning. A clear direction can help reduce your stress. Why? Because you not only know exactly where you want to end up, but you are also working towards an achievable goal without wasted or misdirected energy.
