Why Set Goals
Why would we set goals , well I compare it to a journey by road, rail, air etc if we just jumped on a random plane and took off we wouldn't know where we would end up. In my early years I treated my whole life like this, I sort of had a plan but I worked day to day with no real purpose.

After I had read some books that succesful people had wrote, I realised that they set goals they had a dream of what they wanted to achieve. Then the light in my mind started to switch on "why I am here? where am I going ?" so "I am here " 23 years old and working day to day with a bit of a plan. I put into practice the teachings of the books, I set goals :
- Short Term
- Medium Term
- Long Term

Now here's the key I wrote them down on some card 3" x 5" and carried these cards with me all the time, I read them out to myself morning and night. A strange thing started to happen, my self confidence grew I woke up in the mornings with a sense of purpose, my whole attitude started to change. Slowly my short term goals started to happen, along the way I would adjust my medium term and long term, my medium term would, as time goes by become my short term.
This is an in depth subject and I am not qualified to teach, I can only say in my experience setting goals changed my life. The late great Jim Rohn did a 35 minute video if you click the link it could change your life if you decide to.

I decided to "Change My Life" to be happy and fulfilled by achieving my purpose, I have a property business and an online business. I have learnt to serve others ( as I hope I am doing now ) respect others for what they are trying to achieve no matter how big or small their ambition. I work on my attitude each day and look to help anyone I can on a daily basis.
