Goals and Goal Setting

A Goal is an objective, a purpose.

A Visual Journal is a creative way that constantly guides us in the direction of our Purpose while fulfilling our Goals.

Influencing the subconscious mind to achieve goals is the secret to success. We all do it, almost on a daily basis, without realizing it. If you are unaware of the process, then consider the following.

As an example, if you are in a job situation and you have to be at work by 8.30 a.m., then unconsciously you have set up “being in the office by 8.30 a.m.” as your aim and all your planning from the night before is done so that you realise it.

If  I require 8 hours of sleep, then I am in bed by  10 o’clock, I get up at 6 o’clock, brushing, bathing, toilet, etc. are over by 7o’clock, breakfast, is grabbed as we run out the door  while we finish dressing leaving the house by 7.15, and drive to the office at such a speed that we reach by 8.30.

Thus, unknowingly, you have planned and achieved,  probably the most important action in achieving success : setting goals and achieving them.

It can be seen that goals are central to anything and everything that we do in life. They are as essential to success as air is essential to life. Without them you are headed into nothingness.

To quote Seneca, “If a man knows not what harbor he seeks, any wind is the right wind.

A goal is not just a dream. A dream becomes a goal only when it is acted upon.

“According to a survey 27% of the people surveyed had no idea about their future; they not only did not know where they were going but probably did not even know whether they were going or coming. 60% had a vague idea about their future, 10% had mental and only 3% had written down their dreams.

A few years later it was found that the 27% who had no idea about their future were living on government welfare, the 60% who had a vague idea about their future were earning just enough for survival, the 10% who had it in their mind were earning three times their earlier income and only the 3% who had written down their dreams had achieved almost all of them and had become wealthy.”
