Procrastination is not only the thief of time; it is the assassination of idealism and talent destroyer.
3 Moving In The Direction We Ought To Move:
We need to have direction in life. Once we have identified the direction we want our lives to go, we need to be intentional about it. With proper goal setting, we are already pointing the direction we want our lives to go. Goal setting is important as you push yourself, sell your dreams to others and everyone can see the direction you are going in life.
4 Ability To Increase Beyond Your Former Limit:
I said it earlier that today’s achievement is tomorrow’s mediocrity. Once you settle for what you have achieved before now, you will soon be relegated because most people seek to push themselves harder and better. With goals, you make it progressive. Some might decide to increase the savings they make in a month. Assuming you decided to start saving every month, make it realistic and attainable. You have to push yourself and do it from time to time. Once you have gotten comfortable with a particular level, seek for ways to set new goals and it has to be better than the previous goal.
5 Undue Influence Of Others:
When you set goals, you have this sense of direction and a mind with the future in mind. Setting goals keep you glued and protects you from undue influence of others.
