Page 23 - GOALS PDF

Goals are wonderful. They are the destination we’re headed for. But

what we offer on our journey is who we are becoming to other people.

I’ve been talking about GOALS, and this is another facet of goals to
think about. One of our goals should be to create the best version of
SELF that we can produce at any given time. What we do is make offers

to others when we OFFER ourselves to them.

Dynamics to Setting Goals

Goals must be realistic and attainable. If they are not, we will soon
become bored with them and abandon them. We will not continue to

reach for something that is totally beyond our reach – like a horse
trying to reach a carrot that is out of reach on the end of a stick.

Goals must be specific and measurable. If we try to set goals that we
really can’t envision in our minds, they will soon fall by the wayside

because they are too vague. They’re like a mirage, not something real.
We must have a clear picture of our goals in our mind. They must have

a quality to them that is vivid to us. They must be well-defined.
