Jobs and CareersThe Best Method For Setting and Reaching Goals
By Joel C. Milne
Mankind is by nature a goal-seeking creature. To live happily, achieve success and be loved are goals shared universally by all people. Everyone has goals, even if they are better understood as "wishes", "dreams", "targets" or "ideals". Why then do some people achieve success consistently, while others rarely or never get where they aim to go? The answer is largely the method used to identify, set, plan and manage goals through to completion. Many people have no formal goal setting method at all. Others use methods that miss one or more of the key ingredients in a sound goal management program.
The best method for setting and reaching goals is one that meets each of the essential goal management principles described below.
"People with goals succeed because they know where they are going. It's as simple as that." - Earl Nightingale
7 ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLES OF GOAL MANAGEMENT
1. Pursue goals selectively: Not everything you think you want proves to be worth the time, money and energy involved in making it happen. When we trim our goal list down to the ones that really matter, we have more resources to dedicate to each one. For each goal you consider aiming for, ask yourself does it inspire you to take action right away? Does it seem likely you can achieve it or is there a smaller version of goal that fits better now? Finally are you willing to accept sacrificing other goals to achieve this one?
2. Keep your goal information well organized: Ideally you will be using goal management software designed specifically for this purpose. The next best way to keep goals is to establish a tree of folders on your computer and keep your goals in text documents with any additional image or other files required. Using paper and pen is effective only if you have extraordinary amounts of time, patience and organization skill. Most pen/paper goal lists lack consistency, and are quickly outdated and set aside.
3. Set SMART goals: Test each goal against the SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-based) criteria. Specific, the goal has a clear focus and desired result is communicated with precision. Measurable, you will be able to know whether the goal has been achieved or not because there is a way to measure the results. Achievable, based on where you are now, you foresee that is reasonably possible to achieve the target result within the time constraints. Relevant, the goal makes sense to you and is inspiring. Time-based, there is a date set for completion.
4. Plan your goals thoroughly: Goals are destinations you are aiming to reach. How, and if, you achieve your goals depends on the quality and degree of planning you put into place for your goal. Take into account the time, money, energy and other primary factors involved in reaching your goal.
5. Review your goals regularly: The more often you think about your goal the more often you will have ideas on how to achieve it. Review time can be used to update your goal plan, add notes about progress, check off lists of tasks related to the goal, and add new action items to the goal. Reviewing goals is the ongoing process of caring for and managing your goal through to its completion. Some simple goals will need little review, while complex major goals may require daily review for several years.
6. Involve others in your goals: You are not an island. The support and encouragement of others is critical to your success. Share your goals with friends, relatives, colleagues, anyone who is interested and who you have confidence in. Many of your goals will require the products and services of other people, companies and groups, choose these relationships carefully and embrace them as an integral component in your success.
7. Dedicate resources to your goals effectively: Just as your body needs food, water and oxygen, your goals have requirements in order to survive and grow. These requirement come in the form of resources that include time, money, skills/knowledge and other components. Think of resources like fuel. Your overall ability to achieve depends both on creating sufficient fuel, and distributing it where it is used most efficiently. Aim to ensure that each goal your working on is receiving enough resources. Reform or eliminate any goals that "hog" resources without providing proportionate value.

How I Sold My Couch to Pay a Bill, and Created 300 Jobs
By Bonnie Bruderer
How I sold my couch to pay a bill, and ended up giving 300 women a job...
I am always someone who has a plan B. Yes, being a go-getter; I do push the envelope, as most do, however I am smart and calculated in my efforts. This time, I had pushed too far. I was at the end of the line, so much so, that the stack of bills on my entryway table, was too overwhelming to look at.
I am a woman of action, so I looked at my "resources" and what I had to work with, and literally it was the contents of my studio apartment. My parents had instilled the fear of god in me, about always having insurance, and I had a medical bill to pay, so I had to do the unthinkable.
I placed an ad on Craig's list, and sold my couch for $375. This was by far one of the lowest moments in my life. I cancelled the rest of my plans for the weekend, as I had no money, and I spent the weekend, tearfully in my apartment, trying to figure out what to do next.
By Sunday, with swollen eyes, and having exhausted the possibility of selling anything else, I decided to create a plan.
I have always been a big fan of the Vision Board, and the ability to attract in anything you desire. I scrounged up my change from every place in my apartment. I went to the local Wallgreens; and bought a poster board and some magazines. I came home and began to cut out pictures of everything I wanted in my life.
I had so much fun, and felt so fabulous looking at all of the great things I wanted to attract in. Then it hit me. This is my next step. I launched a business teaching women to training other women on how to create vision boards, using my "Remember Forward" technique and it teaches you to act as if you already have everything you desire in your life.
During this weekend that was one of the lowest of my life, I realized that there was such a lack of hope and inspiration in the world, and such an abundance of fabulous talent, so the Vision Board Party business created a solution for all of this.
Just a few months later, we have 20 reps that are up and running and teaching many others, and have goals to hire 280 more reps. Between now and the end of the year. It is so exciting, and it all came out of the fact that there was no other option.
One thing I know for sure, is that Vision Boards really work, and the satisfaction of helping women that are in a similar position I was, that weekend, is one of the greatest experiences I have ever had.
If you are looking for a part-time opportunity where you can make $250-$500 per night, by teach others how to use a Vision Board and achieve their goals. http://www.VisionBoardParties.com

How to Set Manifesting Goals For Faster Results
By Natalie Strobe
You can manifest what you want faster than ever before, by applying these three principles. Before I tell you what those principles are I would like you to think about all the things you have manifested in your life. Have you noticed anything special when he did finally attract the things you wanted? One of the first things you may have realized is that is that you were passionate before you manifested your desire. Passion and enthusiasm are two incredible ingredients in manifesting your desires.
When you're passionate about your desires you move into greater alignment with them. When you're in alignment with your desires you move with laser like precision towards your goal. And, that is the key ingredient getting what you want.
Focus -- Focus aligns you with clear intention and clear action. When your intention and your actions are in alignment all of your energies begin to work at once to draw what you want towards you. In that state you are like a magnet sending out frequency with your intention while drawing what you want towards you.
There are Many Levels of Focus-- There is mental focus and there is physical focus. The secret is to apply both of them use with advanced mental skills. Not all action is the right action. The right action can only be generated by your subconscious mind. This is the one secret to manifesting that few people understand. Not every action you take will produce the right results. Some actions will take you further away from you desired goal. This is why so many people suffer in the process to manifest the things that the desire. When you learn how to enter the mind and to correctly, can manifest anything you desire.
When You Set a Clear Goal -- When you set a clear goal it must be embedded in yourself subconscious before results can happen. Unfortunately, few people know how to work effectively with the subconscious mind. You can think of the subconscious mind like the soil, and you desire like to seed. Not all its seeds that are planted will bear fruit. That is why there are many guides and tools to assist you in farming. This same principle applies to manifesting what you want.
