Goals

I was talking to my coach the other day and we were talking about reaching goals. Sometimes a goal sounds and looks so far away that we mentally give up before we even get started. We set ourselves up for failure before we even begin. I have been in the process of evaluating and setting daily/weekly goals for myself. I have always set goals and yet about half the time I have procrastinated and not accomplished them, or just given up, leaving me with a sense of failure, and a silent disappointment in myself. Most of the goals that I believe that we set, we never share with anyone else. They are little deals that we make with ourselves, that most often are never accomplished and or we think are not met because someone else kept us from it. 

REALLY?? 

When I am honest with myself, the goals I have not met in my life, whether they were spoken or not was because I didn't keep at it, or because I made the goal in haste without counting the cost, or a variety of other excuses.......but when my goal is not met it is because of "I".  

The good news is, I am not making stupid goals anymore, and I am keeping the goals that I set with consistency. Goals are important in life, they keep us growing, learning , and stretching. 

There are keys and strategies to setting effective goals and then reaching them.
