Why You Must Have Goals

Every successful person on the planet started out with a goal.

Tuesday, 11 August 2020 16:19

Opportunity

There are two schools of thought about opportunity. The first is that it is dependent on chance, and if you're lucky, and in the right place, at the right time, it may fall into your lap. The second is that we create our own opportunities.

Change

Without change, there is no innovation, creativity, or incentive for improvement. Those who initiate change will have a better opportunity to manage the change that is inevitable.

Choices

Choosing is one of our innate gifts in life. We are faced with choices daily, and our trajectory, both professional and personal, are determined by the quality of the choices we make. How do we consciously weigh up the pros and cons of a specific action, or do we just ricochet off other people's actions and therefore choices for us? 

It is our choices…that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities. ~ J. K. Rowling

Control

By releasing control over circumstances, you gain more control over your life. - Kyle Maynard; speaker, author, and ESPY award-winning mixed martial arts athlete, known for achieving all this despite being a congenital amputee.

Self-Awareness

How aware are we of our strengths, weaknesses, our impact on others, or where we put our energy when we're on autopilot? Now more than ever, in this time of unprecedented fear and uncertainty, we owe it to ourselves and to others to be more discriminating about what we watch, read, listen to and share. 'People tend to be generous when sharing their nonsense, fear, and ignorance… They seem quite eager to feed you their negativity… Be cautious with what you feed your mind and soul. Fuel yourself with positivity and let that fuel propel you into positive action.' - Steve Maraboli.

Circle of Influence

Coaching Thought:

'The world is perfect. It’s a mess. It has always been a mess. We are not going to change it. Our job is to straighten out our own lives'. – Joseph Campbell. What a great time to stop worrying about global events and take stock of our own backyards.

Legacy

Coaching Thought:

'..we should be remembered for the things we do. The things we do are the most important things of all. They are more important than what we say or what we look like. The things we do outlast our mortality. … That’s why your deeds are like your monuments.'  – R.J. Palacio

Perfectionism vs Effectiveness

Coaching Thought:

How often have we hamstrung ourselves by not completing a project because we felt it wasn't perfect? Maybe even prided ourselves on our 'high standards?'  'Understanding the difference between healthy striving and perfectionism is critical ….. Research shows that perfectionism hampers success. In fact, it’s often the path to depression, anxiety, addiction, and life paralysis'.~ Brene Brown

  • Timing and Permission

    Have you ever suggested an idea that didn’t land, only to have it suggested and heartily taken up by someone else a little while later? Ideas based on Michael Grinder’s Professional Development Model explain this.

  • Goals

    The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

  • Letting Go

    Whatever it is, if it doesn’t make you happy, walk away, give it away to someone else who wants it. Let it be their next dream; let it flee from you. Then you have room to grow, to allow magnificent things to fill the vacuum of those seemingly empty places. When you hold onto yesterday, when you hold onto dead and dying adventures, you have no room in your box for greatness. Unknown
