Goals clarify our desires and, in doing so, help us to focus on only those activities that will lead us to what we want. Setting clearly defined goals provides you with a framework for smarter choices.

Goal setting helps you to stay alert to opportunities.

Setting clearly defined goals commits you to a course of action. They give you the inspiration to act on your priorities and make things happen in your life rather than waiting for opportunities to land in your lap (which rarely happens).

Selecting goals that engage and motivate you is one of the best ways to boost the level of your personal commitment to life and increase the energy you bring to your days. So set big goals.You are only as rich, whether materially or spiritually, as your dreams.
