A Written Goal Creates a Target

“A person with clear, written goals, will accomplish far more

in a shorter period of time than people without them

 could ever imagine.”

Lou Ludwig, Sales and Management Consultant,

Success Coach, Speaker, Trainer and Author

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

A written goal creates a target

 

Successful people know where they’re going . . . . They know how they will get to their destination . . . . and they have a success plan . . . . with written goals to create the road map for their success journey.

 

Your written goals become your purpose . . . . and the road map on your success journey. Your written goal creates a target for you focus on. The goals maps out your success journey . . . . and gives you direction . . . . and a path to follow.

 

Referring to your written goals it will also let you to measure your forward progress against your goals. And let know when you get off track . . . . and help you to get back on track quicker.

 

Goals create the mile markers . . . . on your success journey that’s give you a way to check our progress.

 

Successful people achieve their success because they know where they’re going . . . . and they have a plan to get there.

 

A written goal creates a target to aim for . . . . and a purpose to get out of bed every day.

A written goal can be good (I personally dont use them) as it can be a quick reminder to go back to and gauge where you are at.

Written goals are helping in creating the vision, and end game in my opinion.

Lou I have always fought the written goals.  Don't disagree with them but my personality seems to.  I know I would be much better off even finding a middle ground.  Mark

 Lou, as I was leaving I noticed your points.  I feel terrible in not having caught you as you hit the HUGE mile marker of 2 MILLION.  A belated congratulations.  I know I am not the only one here that really enjoys all your motivation and guidance.  Continued Success and I am looking forward to the next Million.  Mark

Without a goal to achieve there is very little purpose in what we do.

Hi Lou Ludwig ,  When those goals are written and staring you in the face, it's hard to ignore them.  Nice blog.

When you can see the goal on paper it makes it easier to place it in motion.  As I read this I glanced over my desk to the Lou article on my bulletin board...Seven Steps to effective control your marketing dollars by Lou Ludwig. Thanks again!

Not sure I agree with the written goal thing.....as much as I am driven to reach goals, it's by working hard and not reading something.  Just my opinion.....
