Achieving Lasting Success: How to Set Specific but Small Goals

The art of setting goals is essential for achieving success. Many successful people know that setting

 goals are the key to achieving their dreams. Many people also know that goals are more powerful when

 they’re specific and measurable. In addition, it’s important to avoid setting goals that are impossible to

 achieve. Setting goals is one of the most important things you can do to succeed in life. It’s essentially

 a plan for your future- and the biggest one you have in your life- so making decisions based on what

 you want is essential. You become more assured, cheerful, and self-confident when you have a strategy

 for your life.

 Additionally, it keeps you motivated and focused on what you want as you work towards your goals.

 Essentially, without setting goals, it’s impossible to make any progress in life. It’s important to

 understand what a goal is when discussing goals with others. The word ‘goal’ comes from the Latin

 word ‘grātia’ which means ‘gratification’ or ‘benefit’. In other words, a goal is something that will give

 you something you want. In addition, when referring to sports or athletics, ‘goal’ comes from the

 Greek word ‘goēs’ which means ‘race.’ Essentially, a goal is something that will give you something

 when you achieve it- which is why it’s so motivating. The most common mistake with setting goals is

 setting too many or ambiguous ones. This leads to ineffective results, as you’ll constantly work

 towards impossible goals. Instead of working towards something worth achieving, people tend not to

 work hard at all. On the other hand, setting specific but small goals works well. Here are some

 examples of good small goals: doubling your weekly income, saving $200 per month, training three

 times per week for 45 minutes each time, and reading 30 pages per hour while sleeping. Goals are

 essential in achieving success in life- especially when making difficult decisions. Setting goals is easy

 if you understand what they are and know how to set them effectively. Stay focused on your goals and

 avoid setting too many or too difficult ones!
