In 1953 Yale University did a research on its graduating seniors. The graduates interviewed were asked if they had a clear, specific set of goals written down with a plan for achieving those goals. Only 3 percent had their goals written down. Twenty years later, in 1973, these surviving graduates were tracked down and interviewed again. It was discovered that the 3 percent with specific written down goals were worth more financially as compared to the 97 percent put together. They were also more successful in other areas of their lives.
Moral of the story
The above story clearly demonstrates the importance of having specific written down goals. The goals must be specific in terms of what you desire, the precise date you desire to achieve it, and what you are willing to give in return for the goals. It must be written down and read every single day. If you write down something that you may not believe at the moment but if you read it long enough, you will start to believe and act upon it.
Special note
I’m currently pursuing my study to be a professional personal performance coach, in order for me to get certified I need to coach people to set goals and how to achieved it. I’m offering myself to coach any one in panda who are interested to have me as a coach. Please email me if you are interested.
Have a fantastic day and fun weekend!!
