Reason to Under Achieve No. 3 – Goal Setting (or lack of!)
Its easy to set a goal that you know is a sure thing. It’s much more challenging to set a goal that you have no idea of how you are going to achieve it.
The great thing about connecting your life to a higher purpose and being guided towards setting your goals is that you will have help in achieving them. Some of my best achieved goals are the ones I create from intuition based on my passion.
Many people set low goals, goals that don’t challenge them, or they set the wrong goal, goals that they do not enjoy or are not bothered whether they achieve or not.
And then there are many who set no goals at all, they drift though life always “gonna” do something but never getting round to it.
The question here is “What Goals did I set out to achieve and how much did I grow and develop as a result?”
Recognise where your goal could have been bigger, recognise where you didn’t try as hard as you could have, congratulate yourself on your success and look at how you will challenge yourself in the coming 12 months!
Whether you like the word “goal” or not is irrelevant, don’t get bogged down in semantics, recognise it as another way to avoid actually setting them.
Figure out what you want to do with your life, make it big, make it bold. When you write it out it should leave you excited and scared all at the same time. That’s when you know you have hit the right target!
