If there is one thing that you need to do in order to bring success to you, that will be goal setting. Goal setting is one of the most crucial steps that determine your success. Without a goal, you will be like a lost sheep, you will follow what other sheep are doing, and in other words, you are dangling in nowhere.

That is why goal setting is the thing that you must have to be successful. If you have a goal today, it somehow tells you that you still have a purpose to live in your life. Without goals, your life got no purpose. Focus is the main benefit of goal setting. A goal tells you what you need to do and why you need to do it.

Well, if goal setting can bring you to success, why don't everyone set goal and become successful? You have to understand this; goal setting is not something a must for many people. For some people, they don't even know what goal setting is and what it can do for them. That is why many people live their life ordinarily, just like everyone else. Their life seems like meaningless. They work from 9 in the morning, back at 5 in the evening, and watch television in the night.

And the next day, the cycle repeats again. Do you want to live a life like this? Do you enjoy what you are doing right now? If you don't chances are, you must start to set your goals right now. You have to find out what you really want in your life. What you want to achieve in your life. If you don't know what you want in your life, you will be the same just like everybody else. Life is like a ranging river, if you don't have a clear goal or a direction where you want to head to, you will reach anywhere the current brings you.

Another big mistake made by many people is this; they thought that all they have to do is just to dream about what they want, and they will achieve it. No, if you did not write down your goals, your goals will remain dreams. A goal is not the same as dreams. Goal is more specific, can be achievable, and has a deadline. Whereas dreams are something like the end results.

If you are reading this right now, I believe that you know about the importance of goal setting and how it can help to drive you into action. However, why even after you have set your goals, most of the time you still will not achieve them? To answer this question, you have to know what makes your goals come true. The answer is short and in one word, action.

Without action, no matter how great how exciting your goals, you won't achieve them. Action is the main thing that makes your goals comes true. It is not like one day you wake up and you are the CEO of a big company, it is not like one day you wake up and you are a multi-millionaire. No, all of these will not happen automatically. They will all happen automatically in your dreams, but not so for your goals.

So make sure that after you set your goals, take the necessary action to make your goals come true. I hope that you understand this, and don't be the one that sets all the goals, but never take any solid action, instead, sit and watch television and wish that your goals will come true. You know very well that this is not going to happen, so take the right action, from now on.
