Five rules in goal setting to achieve success.

Being intentional when you set and achieve your goals is the first
part of the GPS of business and of life. “Without clearly defined
goals, you will never know where you are going, or if and when you get
there.” Howard Partridge emphasizes the importance of goals in his
book The 5 Secrets of a
Phenomenal Business when he discusses them as the first of three parts
of your GPS for success. The second two are Plans and Systems. Setting
goals by these five rules will allow you to reach success when you are
working, and will help you actually achieve them.

1) “You must have clearly defined life goals and business goals.”
It is not enough to give a vague overview of potential places you
would like to see your business go. You must be intentional with your
goals; you must be very straightforward with your goals, and clearly
define what you want to do in both your life and business so that when
you set your GPS, it takes you down the path that is best for you.
Muddled goals will not help in any way because you will always be
going back and forth and up and down as you search for alternative
routes when things get tough. Clearly defined goals will pull you
through the difficulties ahead and help you actually achieve your
goals.

2) “They must be written down.”
Be honest with yourself. Write down what you say you are going to do.
Hold yourself accountable by making yourself really think about what
you want and then reach for what you want. Without writing the goals
down, it is easy to change your idea and path in life. Achieve your
goals. Write them down with intention.

3) “They must be yours.”
You will never be somebody else. You can only be the best version of
you. Don’t adopt the goals of someone else because you will never live
their life better than you live your own. Adopt your own goals and
achieve your own successes.

4) “They must be meaningful to you.”
Do not adopt goals that somebody else suggested you adopt. Do not
reach for things other people say you will be good at just because it
sounds nice. Set your own goals with your own mind and your own ideas.
You must have the deeper meaning behind your goals locked into your
heart and your mind for you to be able to really pull through with
your goals and succeed when the going gets tough.

5) “They must be specific and measurable.”
Without a measurable goal, without a specific goal, you will never
know when and if you reach your goals. Be specific when you set your
goals, and ensure that you have a barometer of measurement so that you
can tell when and if you have achieved your goals. You will if you
just keep working towards them, but you won’t if you keep working
towards a vague idea of success
