Goal Setting Theory : 10 Reasons To Set Goals!

Goal Setting Theory: What Is Mine?

There is much information on the Internet about goal setting theory.  Here I would like to share my own theories about goal setting that worked over and over again for my clients:

Ten Reasons to Set Goals

1. Setting goals puts us in the driver’s seat of our lives




2. Goals allow us to live our best life, since they encourage us to stretch ourselves.




3. We accomplish much more when we set goals. Not only do we accomplish projects quicker, but also we can accomplish much more of them!




4. Goals inspire us and propel us into action




5. Setting goals is fun and exciting. It is exciting to think what is possible, and to challenge ourselves.




6. By setting external goals, we also develop internal characteristics and skills, which stay with us long after the goals, have been achieved.




7. Setting goals and reaching them increases our sense of self-esteem.




8. Goals keep us going through the less interesting tasks. Even when a task is dull and tedious, we still feel the desire do it because we know its part of a bigger picture.




9. Goals give our life clarity and meaning. They keep us focused on what is most important, and help us to minimize distractions.




10. When a goal is achieved, nothing can beat the sense of accomplishment. We really need to enjoy the feeling and celebrate the victory, since we can draw on this wonderful feeling when we are working towards our next goal!!!
