Dear Subscriber,Sociologist Dr. Anthony Campolo conducted a study in which 50people over the age of 90 were asked to reflect upon their lives.Each study participant was asked a simple question: “If you had itto do over again, what would you do differently?” There were manyanswers, but there were two that dominated the study. “I would reflect more” and “I would risk more” Have you ever felt like you are too busy doing things and you arenot spending enough time thinking about the things you are doingand why you do them? Have you ever thought about the opportunitiesyou may have lost because you were afraid of taking risks? Perhapsthese elders have a lesson for all of us. Reflect more, and takemore risks.* Start that new company!* Open that new restaurant you always wanted to open!* Quit the job you hate and start your new career!* Ask her/him out!Go for it.....don't wait years only to look back and wish you had taken the risk.

Personal goal setting: the first step toward a purpose-driven life

What's your purpose in life? If you don't have a ready answer, don't be surprised. Even the greatest of the philosophers who had ever lived succeeded only in making this question more profound. Why? Because the answer lies not in simply knowing what's your purpose in life but lies in discovering what's your goal in life. The last one is only possible if you have already gone through the process of goal setting.

Soul-searching is actually personal goal setting in its infancy. The only problem is that for many people that infant never grow up into maturity. The person involved in soul-searching might dismiss this process as nothing but being sentimental. Without realizing it, the person had just killed the infant, or his chance to flesh-out the course of his purpose driven life.

But luckily, soul-searching is a recurring process. So the next time you have been given the honor of another visit, be mindful.

Personal goal setting is a powerful tool for setting a course for a meaningful and fulfilling life. The process of personal goal setting in itself is powerful enough that if you're going through with the process you might think that your life's meaning or purpose had been found. But it is not. The euphoria is only a result of your self finally realizing that you're on the right track.

For some, the process itself is motivating. Once you've found a way in making this a habit, you will soon realize that achieving your goals that look like impenetrable walls in the past is nothing but a purpose that needs a set of personal goals as the key.

Personal goal setting: what should be set?

Since there is more to life than the four letters that it represents, personal goal setting involves a review of all the aspects of your life, and all of these should have a corresponding goal. But before going to the process of setting-up goals, you must have one general goal that encompasses all the other goals. In fact the other and smaller goals should work in the service of this large goal of yours.

1. Career. What aspect of your career do you think needs an improvement? Or perhaps, ask yourself: is time for a new career?

2. Outlook or attitude. Is there a part of you, particularly on how you perceive things, that needs to be changed?

3. Financial. Do you have a clear projection as to how much you should be earning in a particular moment in your life? This aspect is closely related with career, so better review and come out with a goal with these two side by side.

4. Potential development. Perhaps some of your talents and skills need an improvement, or are maybe already clamoring for an improvement. Life, after all, is discovering your potential and developing it in the process.

5. Academic. Perhaps you're no longer getting any mental stimulation lately. Maybe your education-related goals had expired many years ago. Perhaps it's time to go back to school for another degree, or engage in any thought provoking activities.

6. Family. What is your idea of a family? Getting married, having and raising kids? When? How?

7. Social involvement. Perhaps you want to help achieve something that would make the world a better place? Perhaps you're into animal protection, environmental concerns, and human rights issues?

These are just some aspects that generally come to mind when it comes to personal matters. If you feel or think that this list is not enough, or doesn't fit well with you, you may add or change it. Remember, personal goal setting is what its name is -- a personal task. It is all up to you to device it and make it happen.

Business Goal Setting For 2007

The year 2006 is now almost over. In a few months, you may be thinking of what you want to achieve for your company or business next year. But do you know how to go over setting your business goals in such a way that you wouldn’t be overwhelmed?

Here are few simple things to remember before you go about the business of business goal setting.

1. Clarity of your business goal.

Remember that diamonds, more than their cut, are greater prized and treasured for their clarity. Diamonds with yellow, blue ang green hues are simply alluring. But 'alluring' is not what to do with your business goal. What the above statement means is that what you want and what you need is a business plan that is clear from the onset, in order for the internal factors of your business to run smoothly.

2. Come up with a goal that is doable and result oriented.

Remember the businesses right across your office and the one at your back? They have folded just a few years ago, with their officials facing imprisonment for fraud.

A hundred theories have been presented trying to explain why such situations happened, but, hey, if you base everything on rhetoric, then you really wouldn't get anywhere. Go for something that is tangible and concrete. Something you can actually experience and proudly present to everyone. You wouldn't want a shutdown of your own business, would you?

3. Put it into writing.

Decide where you company should be for the next year. Effective business goal setting needs to be detailed and put into writing. This will give you a concrete basis for further review in the future. It will also save you from having to grope your mind for the ideas you came up with during one 'eureka' moment.

4. Use active words.

Active words are not only for writers; they should also work perfectly with your business goal. Do not use passive words and passive sentences because these will give you the feeling of indirect responsibility. Do say: “My company will capture this particular market by the middle of next year”, and not: “This particular market will be captured by my company by the middle of next year”. Breathe action into your words to give life to your business goal.

5. Come up with smaller goals to complement your biggest one.

The smaller goal will help you achieve the ultimate goal of your business, by providing the step by step actions leading to the ultimate plan. By doing this, you will also see more clearly the initial errors inherent with an imperfect plan. In the process, you will know what actions are effective and what are not.

6. Employ people who share your dreams and ideas.

They may not share your concept on how to do things but if these people share your vision, they will at least give you alternative routes in reaching your goal. These alternative routes represent their own view with the world and their belief in doing things.

This process will give you the chance to improve your precepts or ideas.

And, of course, take a regular review of your plan or business goal. Do some revisions if needed, depending on the small changes that you encounter as the plan progresses. And should there be changes, big or small, accept them wholeheartedly. This is what effective business goal setting is all about.

I love this quote by Randy Gage ...

'If you don't have bold, daring and imaginative dreams
you're just not being realistic'

I know its only a short posting, but give it some thought, because it is very powerful.

Goal Setting System

OK...this is perhaps THE most important habit
you can have if you want to succeed in EVERY
area of your life.

Goal Setting

It is almost impossible to overestimate the value of goal-setting
as a positive habit. It can truly be life changing!

Research studies have shown that people who regularly set goals are
far more likely to be successful then people who do not. Napoleon Hill,
author of the best-seller, Think and Grow Rich, once said, “Definiteness
of purpose is the starting point of all achievement, and its lack is the
stumbling block for ninety eight out of every one hundred people because
they never really define their goals and start toward them.”

A study was done to determine the importance of goal setting. College
students who had gone on to achieve great success in business were
asked to list their habits. The students who had made a habit of setting
goals were in the top 3% of earnings in the population!

Goal setting is simple, yet 97% of the population never do it. By making
goal setting a habit, you can start placing yourself in the top 3% of the
population of successful people. Your goal-setting habit can help you reach
any of your goals, regardless of whether they are for business, personal,
relationships, and so on.

Here are some simple steps to help you start your goal-setting habit:

Step 1 Define your destinations, write them down, and be very specific;
capture your goals on paper.

Step 2 Determine what the time line is for reaching your goals; set
specific deadlines for each goal.

Step 3 Identify any obstacles that may stand in your way, list

them, and state how you plan to overcome them.

Step 4 Make a list of the people and/or organizations

who will help you reach your goals.
