Setting Your Goals for the New Year

A dream is what you would like for life to be and hold, but a goal is what you intend to make happen.

--Denis Waitley--

As the year counts down to the end most of us turn our attention to goals which we wish to accomplish in the new year. If, like many people, your new year's resolutions were forgotten by mid-January, try a new approach for the new year. Plan your goals and then work that plan.

The number one key to success is to create well-defined, workable goals. Know what you want and then go and get it. As you plan your life's path, keep these points in mind:

1. Goals must provide guidance

2. Goals must be reachable

3. Goals should be motivating

4. Goals should be flexible
