Habits that matter

When it comes to goal setting, people often talk about SMART goal. It is a great framework to really helps us identify what to work on to achieve the goal. It is even greater if it does come from a bigger picture – a place of serving of sound “impossible dream”.

A great goal that helps us grow and feel fillfuld has to come from our sound “impossible dream” which makes us feel excited but at the same time scary because we dont know exactly yet how to achieve it because we have never done it before.

For example, when i was a kid from the countryside of Vietnam, the “impossible dream” was to get full scholarships to learn abroad to open my mind then i could be more helpful. It was impossible for people around me because no-one did it before. The sound possible goal at that time would be to just get to a normal university and get married. I achieved the sound “impossible dream” because it fueld my energy and my effort each day and i made it happen.

Your goal has to be “golden” – making you feel scary and fired and worthy putting effort, great effort. It means you will tap into your great potential – what you didnt know before and add tremendous values. After having that golden goal, you are now using the SMART goal to break it down into short term action plan.

Goal is just a measure of our growth, effort we put out there – in exchanging you achieve the goal. The person you become matters!

What is your “golden goal”?
