Day 1: Defined Goal

Day 1: Defined Goal

"Study any person who is known to be a permanent success and you will find that he has a Definite Major Goal; he has a plan for the attainment of this goal; he devotes the major portion of his thoughts and his efforts to the attainment of this purpose."

– Andrew Carnegie

My 2 Cents...

I’ve never reached a goal by wandering aimlessly. Early in life, I realized I always needed something to aim for. Every person needs to target something that truly moves the needle for them. What drives you doesn’t need anyone else’s approval. This purpose or goal should be what you want to pursue, not what others want for you. Your aim needs to be precise, clear, and well-defined.

The direction might shift or change, but setting a clear goal is the first step.

How can you wonder why you haven't achieved success if you never clearly defined what you're chasing?
