Setting Goals

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

Setting goals is an important part of success.

But goals need to be reasonable.

Just setting a goal just for the sake of having a goal is not helpful.

Setting unrealistic goals are a recipe for failure.

If you want to fail set goals that not attainable.

Just like the cartoon below!

So true - "Just setting a goal just for the sake of having a goal is not helpful."

I used to set monetary goals (for the sake of it and because so many encouraged me to do so), yet found I was never motivated to achieve them.

Fun post!

Goals need to be SMART. They need to be attainable for sure. That's the A.

GREAT message and LOVED the illustration of your point, now those who sent unrealistic goals would be better off not setting any goals at all, Endre

Morning William.

I have had only one goal for the past several years.  It's working and I have the same one for this year

I do like the cartoon. The truth is that when you set goals you cannot come close to achieving it only shows either a lack of experience or that you are not taking the task seriously.
