5 Reasons Why You Get Results with Effective Goal Setting

  1. 5 Reasons Why You Get Results with Effective Goal Setting Anne Bachrach 2:02

Now that we’ve established the importance of goal setting from the previous days, let’s look at how that applies to your career. As a business owner, proper goal setting ranks as one of the most vital tasks to provide instruction and a sense of direction for you and your team. Let’s look at five reasons why:

1.      Increases Focus: Goal setting takes your ideas from disjointed and disorganized to precise and productive. Having a roadmap helps you achieve the flow state, where your goals are challenging yet still within your skill ability. This zone is where progress happens.

2.      Measures Progress: Keeping track of your progress is advantageous and can prevent Burnout. Even if you’re just taking baby steps—maybe you’re waiting on others or need more information—you’re still moving forward.

3.      Provides Motivation: Setting goals increases motivation—and vice versa. Higher motivation leads to getting more done. 

4.      Avoids Procrastination: Wasted time helps no one. Procrastination happens to everyone, but it still prevents you from moving forward. Goal setting can remedy this paralyzing state and lead to improved performance.

5.      Exceeds Goals: Once you meet a goal, you will savor the sweet taste of victory. Success is a powerful motivator that challenges you to achieve even more. Setting, what I call, stretch goals, can be a big motivator to achieve more than you might have thought possible.

 

Tune in tomorrow for a continued discussion on goal setting.
