Tuesday’s Tip – Go and Set Some Goals

Everyone talks about goal setting these days. But why exactly should you do it? Just because people keep telling you to is probably not a good enough reason. And I completely agree with you on that one. But what about if you look at these 5 reasons:

  1. Goals can give you a target to aim for
    If you don’t know where you’re going, how are you going to get there?
  2. Goals can help you focus
    What do you want to achieve today?
  3. Goals can motivate you
    If you know what’s at stake you will want to stop procrastinating.
  4. Goals can help you set priorities
    Find out what’s really important to you and do something do improve exactly that.
  5. Goals can be a roadmap
    Find your way from where you are now to where you want to be.

Start today by writing down your goals and see where they can take you.

Today’s tip is the first in a series of posts on goal setting. I believe that goal setting is a great way to organise your mind and your time so it’s very relevant to the Well Organised philosophy.
