Hey
folks, there is no GPS in life to guide you where to go, to bring you back home
if you are lost and to drive you safe if you are confused. Don’t dishearten!
There is one thing is life that can work as a GPS device in your life, career
and add value to your personality. Well! It’s Goal.
Goal
setting serves as a GPS in your life, keeping you on the right track towards
your destination and saving you from wandering aimlessly. An act of goal
setting itself can be signified as the point of embarking on the journey
towards one’s own achievements.
If
your goals are definite, they enable you to focus all of your energies towards
achieving it. Every goal should be concrete and specific. It is very important
to identify what you are striving for and commit yourself whole-heartedly
towards achieving it.

Helps You Stay Focused
The greatest importance of goal setting is
that it helps you stay focused to achieve what you seek. We all yearn to make
big in life, but how many of us make it, very few!!! Goal acts like a steering
wheel that maneuvers you along the right direction. Focus is the key. You, in
no way, can afford to take your eyes off the goal even for a moment.
Assists In Overcoming Procrastination
Procrastination is nothing but the common habit of delaying. Goal setting
also helps you overcome procrastination. The habit of procrastination is one of
the biggest frailties of human nature, which severely jeopardizes the chances
of one’s advancements. If we have a set goal for ourselves, you will always be
on the ball and do as required to achieve it. You will waste less time on
insignificant or unproductive actions and take a more direct route to the
accomplishment of the goal.
Measures Your Progress
Goal
setting works as a measuring gauge of your progress that enables you to
evaluate your advancements from time to time. You will have a clear idea on
what you have been able to achieve so far, what you lack or how can you improve
yourself.
Stay disciplined
It
helps you set barriers. Setting clear, solid goals for yourself gives you a
firm fence line. It creates an invisible barrier, whereby you decide what you
want, what liberties do you have and what distractions you need to get rid of,
in order to expedite your progress towards achieving your goal.
Enables You To Manage Your Time
By
setting goals, you will be able to manage your time to your maximum benefit.
You will have a clear idea of what you have to achieve in a particular frame of
time. Thus, you can channelize all your energy and concentration towards
achieving it.
Motivates
Goals must motivate you. If a goal is not motivating you, its not your goal. Motivation
is an important ingredient that steps up one’s prospect of achieving one’s
personal milestones. Assigning yourself with some short term goals will help
you accomplish them in less time and will give you an added sense of
achievement that can motivate you to perform better.
Once
motivated, you will set higher and higher limits for yourself and will be achieving
more and more in due course of time.
Stress Free Life
A
clear goal makes our life simple, organized and managed. A managed life makes
you stress free and you have lot more to enjoy and excel. By having a clear
goal in your mind, you will be well aware of your priorities and with an
effective time management strategy, you will be able to achieve your goals with
little exertion. You will also be devoid of any mental stress, which will
further enhance your productivity and efficiency.
