Set Your Goals Ridiculously High

(Deep breath, digging inside) The height you chose, shoot for the stars, hope for the moon. In everything you do living life to the fullest. Don't just pick the easy low hanging fruit.

I'm with you here Lou.  Our own biggest limiting factor is what we perceive our limits to be.  Thank you for another motivational post.

Lou, that is a great thought, to set goals ridiculously high, but, if someone sets them so high that they know they will never be achieved arn't they setting themselves up for failure?

When coaching new agents, I prefer to preach that they set high goals, but ones that are achievable. When agents fail to reach unattainable goals, they often stop setting them believing themselves as failures. And that become counter-productive.

Lou, this motivational thought reminded me of that U.S. Air Force slogan, AIM HIGH. I believe in stretch goals too.

Lou this is so true.  We are only as good as the goals we set for ourselves and the ones we allow ourselves to believe we can achieve.

I totally agree.

"It's impossible to fail if you are permanently determined to succeed."

Lou-There is a saying that goes it is better to aim high and miss than aim low and make it. Great quote and thoughts as always.

The KW slogan - AIM HIGH...at least you'll reach you goals and at the end of everything, when you succeed - one feels great!

We must aim high .. that is how records are broker over and over again.

Hi Lou, thanks to Praful for the re-blog, directed me to you...this is the perfect post for me today based on something I have been working on for the past several months, more on that later. thanks again for the post, it really made my day.

Lou,

As a child, my son would constantly be asking me questions. Now he's a physics/engineering major in college!

Have a good day!
