How To Be A Goal Achiever

"Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan." Goals plus action equals results. This formula is the basis on how to be a goal achiever!

"In life, as in football, you won't go as far unless you know where the goalposts are." Your overall goal becomes smaller goals, divided quarterly. You'll "kick off" the 1st quarter with your 3 month goals. After the "1st down," you'll begin the process again with your 2nd quarter goals, then at "half time," you'll "replay," and review where you are in the process. Every quarter moves you closer to the "end zone," your overall goal.

Setting goals is the easy part, achieving them is the challenge. When goals aren't organized you become overwhelmed, become unmotivated, and lose focus. A systems person, Gillian N. Miller develops systems to increase productivity and maximize time. Her first book, How to be a Goal Achiever, was developed out of one of those systems. With the goal setting system you will establish your overall goal and break that goal into smaller goals quarterly. Themed in terms of a football game, every quarter gets you closer to the overall goal.
