Just
like for corporate businesses, goal setting for personal life is very
important for success. As a professional keynote speaker, I swear
by
goal
setting. When many people attempt goal setting for personal
life
for the first time, it can be an overwhelming task.
Sometimes,
this task cannot be done in one sitting. It may require a few
sessions. If this is the case with you, then be reassured
that
it’s okay. You might find that you will have to do some soul
searching to figure out what goals you really want to accomplish in
life. This will determine what success is for you.
Then you
need to plan out your strategies to achieve this success.
All of
this goal setting can be a lot of work so you need to be in the right
planning environment. You need to be in a place where you can
really focus on your thoughts, just like studying. For me,
one of
the best places to do this is during a long flight, say at least two
hours or more. If the in-flight movie is not so good and if
the
other passengers sitting around me are not very social, then I'm
trapped. There's nothing do to but listen to the white noise
of
the plane. So it's the best place for me to work on my
personal
planning because I can really focus in such an environment.
Of
course, I can't book a long flight every time I want to work on my
personal goal setting and planning. But next time you’re on a
long flight, you might want to do some of this type of planning or at
least review your goals.
Sometimes, I can't do this activity
at home either. I have little Lhasa Apso dogs that can be
very
distracting and I just can't get any work done that requires heavy-duty
thinking. If they are not barking at something they see out
the
window, then they are tapping my arm with their paws to get my
attention while I’m working. Although this might seem like a
really cute thing to see, it is very annoying when trying to plan out
my life goals which are so important.
When faced with constant
interruptions, I have to leave the house and go to a study room at a
local library where I always manage to get good work done.
You
might have young children, a needy spouse or a chatty
roommate.
They can all be distractions that you don’t need when planning your
goals. You will have to figure out for yourself where the
best
planning environment is for you.
Don't short change
yourself by trying to do personal goal setting in an unsuitable
environment. You want to make the best use of your time as
possible to help you succeed. You also want to have
a
pretty clear mind when you attempt any goal setting. Go to a
place where you can put in an honest brain sweat. The proper
goal
setting and planning are crucial activities that are considered
essential for overall long term success in
life. I cover these activities in great detail in
my book, The Life Champion In You.
