Imagine if your goals are too small to propel you forward in a way that will ultimately lead you to the success you desire.
Many people suffer from creating goals that are firmly inside their comfort zones. Comfortable goals can fail to create anything exciting or game changing in your life.
Success guru Brian Tracy explores this topic in his post 4 Ways to Know Your Goals are Too Small. It’s a quick read, and I recommend it highly. If you don’t have time for even a quick read, here are the 4 ideas:
- They don’t challenge your abilities
- They don’t create big life change
- You’re not inspired by your goals
- Your goals aren’t detailed enough
The idea of building the right goals is near and dear to my heart. I spend a lot of time with my coaching clients discussing building and accomplishing goals that have true meaning in their lives. One of the tools I use for goal setting is the SMARTER Goals system. Having such a system can be extremely helpful in determining if you’re setting up a goal that you really believe in and that you’re totally ready to commit to.
Let me know how you know if your goals are the right ones for you.
