3 Powerful Reasons Why Goal-Setting Will Change Your Life

There are 3 powerful reasons why goal setting should be front and centre of your focus right now:

Reason 1:

In that instant that you write a goal, you are telling yourself that you matter. 

And that’s actually a really, really big deal. Think about it…

If you matter, that means your needs and wants matter.

It means too that your success and happiness matter.

 

 

Reason 2:

As soon as you commit to a goal – an outcome that you really want and that could change your life – you have started to focus in on what you do want, rather than confusing your brain with a pile of outcomes that you don’t want to put up with anymore

Wow! That is massive!

How many times have you been able to list everything you’re currently putting up with, struggling with or want to stop?

How many times have you felt stuck in a situation that you wanted to end?

And how many times did you flip it and start getting really clear on what you actually did want instead…?

Hmmm I’m sensing that last one doesn’t happen often enough – am I right?

 

 

Reason 3:

When you decide on what you want, you suddenly become purposeful and active in your pursuit of fulfilment, rather than leaving your fate to chance.

You have so much more control over your opportunities and your outcomes than you might think…

And one thing is certain: your future will either happen ‘to you’ or ‘in support of you’ and you can choose which outcome becomes your reality.

 

 

People can settle too easily for careers, relationships and lifestyles that simply don’t inspire or fulfill them.

Don’t let that be you!

Making a bit of time today to set some goals for your career, and what you want from your life, will undoubtedly reap huge benefits tomorrow…
