Tuesday’s Tip – The Wisdom of Goal Setting

Goal setting was not invented recently, it is in fact hundreds, if not thousands of years old as the quotes below show. Here are some of my favourite quotes on goal setting:

If you don't know where you are going,
you'll end up someplace else.
Yogi Berra

There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
Henry Ford

Our plans miscarry because they have no aim. When a man does not know what harbour he is making for, no wind is the right wind.
Seneca

Who aims at excellence will be above mediocrity; who aims at mediocrity will be far short of it.
Burmese Saying

In absence of clearly defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily acts of trivia.
