This document discusses goal setting and provides guidance on establishing effective goals. It notes that goals must be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound (SMART) in order to be successful. Goals should also be consistent with one's values and regularly evaluated to ensure they meet criteria like fairness and contributing to well-being. The document cautions against confusing activity with accomplishment, as one can be busy without making progress toward goals. Overall, it emphasizes the importance of setting meaningful goals and taking action to achieve them.

the test:

it, is it?

11. Goals Should Be Consistent
with Our Values
• Obstacles are those frightful
things you see when you take your
eyes off your goal.

• The only component of an activity that can single
handedly throw it out of place

– “If people won’t sit in a train without knowing its
destination then why would they go through life
without having any goals”

14. Goal Scrutiny
• Every goal must be evaluated in the light of:
– Is it the truth?
– Is it fair to all concerned?
– Will it get me goodwill?
– Will it get me health, wealth, and peace of mind?
– Is it consistent with my other goals?
– Can I commit myself to it?

15. Examples which fail the evaluation
tests
• Survive with just good health and no money
• Only money but no family and friends
• Earn money through illegal practices
– “Goals without action are empty dreams. Actions
turn dreams into goals Delay does not mean
defeat. It only means one has to re-plan to
accomplish one's target”

Accomplishment

If we confuse Activity with Accomplishment, we could be
making great time but we don’t know our Destination.

Many times we have totally useless Goals and we end up losing
our Energy in life
Dog sitting by the roadside corner, chasing cars and finds none!
A good plan executed now is better than a perfect plan next week.
- Gen George S.Patton,Jr.
Many times in life
we keep behaving
like dog chasing
totally useless goals
and losing energies
in life.
