Great question.
Setting goals helps you to know where you want to go and how to get there.
When you have a clear idea of what you want to accomplish. When you know hat you hope to accomplish it makes getting there that much easier.
Most great leaders write out there goals and keep them in the front of their minds.
If you don't know where you are going than it's harder to get there.
Goals help you to better know how to accomplish what you want.
Make sure you stay on track

It is important to set goals to achieve success in SFI or pretty much anything..Let's discuss this with a simple example...

Short term goal:
If we run a 100 metre race, we wont run only 50 metre but we run and finish that 100m at any task... So if the goals are set,we dont stop halfway and we reach our target...
Since the target is only 100m ,we dont run more than that..Likewise when you reach your goal,you won't move forward unless you set another goal...
Moreover,in 100m

Great question...

Failing to plan is setting yourself up for failure. It is like you are driving at top speed, but don't know where you are going

Setting goals is not just about writing down something. It includes careful monitoring and control periodically to ensure you are following what you wrote down. That is the reason why SFI have added a review of the goals tab. You will not earn your 1VP from the goals tab until you state what you have done on that day you meet your

A popular statement says "If you do not know where you are going any road will take you there". That suggests you can take any route in your quest to "nowhere" because it does not matter.

In SFI and in any venture where you are serious, you must have a goal. The goal can change over time, be replaced or enlarged but it must be present. It should be challenging but achievable and if it is a large goal, it should be capable of being broken down so that progress can be

Setting goals is not only important in becoming successful in SFI. It is the important for all success.

Without setting goals, just like travelling without any destination. If you don't know your destination point then you can not plan in the best way. You will wander here and there and finally you will realize you have wasted lots of time and money, but have not reached anywhere.


So, if you want to be suceessful. Set a big goal, then split it to many sub-goals. And plan

Because it will keep you on your toes and help you to achieve the result you are aiming for in SFI. In the beginning of SFI you don't know exactly what you can set as your doable goals so you start with something maybe bigger or smaller than you really find doable later. And when you see that, maybe after a few days, you just adjust your goals accordingly.

Remember to make your goals so high that you have to better your self every month but not that high that it will be unrealistic to

Goals shed light into one’s long-term vision and at the same time enthuse one to achieve short-term objectives.

Goals give meaning and purpose to any activity you undertake because they help one to focus available resources – time, knowledge and finances – to realised ones dreams. Because goals imply knowledge of where one is and where one wants to be (wants to achieve), they are like a roadmap of where one wants to go. They provide milestones against which one can judge progress

"If you fail to plan you plan to fail", is an old adage. I believe this to be true. Setting goals gives you something concrete to aim for. Set your goals small at first. Something that you know you can do. Increase as you are able to do comfortably.

Here is some advice:

1. You need to have some direction in which you are heading or you will go off in 10 different directions at the same time. It leads to confusion and frustration.

2. Set up realistic goals
