This is a question that we should all ask ourselves. This applies not just to earning income but also to nearly all aspects of our lives. Setting goals helps to address the following questions:
1. What do I want?
2. Why do I want it?
3. How I am going to get it?
4. What steps should I take to get there?
5. Do I have both short and long term plans?
It goes without saying that if you do not set yourself goals it is difficult to know where you are going and you can spend a vast amount of time drifting. It is not a bad idea to log on every day to your homepage but it is equally important that you have objectives and set yourself both short and long term plans. I have noticed that so many affiliates have joined my team and done extremely well in the first or two months. When they have achieved Executive Affiliate status, they ask me when they are going to get the commissions and when they see what they get, most of them give up. It is not what they were expecting. They were hoping to make a lot of money in a short time. Unfortunately, success also has rules and one cannot become a millionaire overnight. When we set goals we have to be realistic and also consider how much time or money we are willing to invest in developing our business. You have to walk before you can run and when you start running don’t run too fast as you may get hurt.
In summary setting goals is good for your business as you can always review your targets and see where improvements can be made or where you have been too optimistic.
