Setting goals is an integral component of career and life success. You don't always need to write down the goals you set, although goal setting gurus say you should for best success. But, set firm goals in your mind so you always know where you are going and what you plan to achieve. Set goals for the sheer joy of accomplishment. I have always set goals and believe they have been a cornerstone for all my accomplishments. Do you set goals? And, if you do, even if the goals are only in your mind or heart, please share a goal you are currently working to accomplish.

A Whole List

I've recently put together a list on http://www.mysomeday.com. I came across this site on the Huffington Post and its proved to be a really great goal-setting tool for me. I listed some of the bigger goals in life (http://bit.ly/4ry7f6) and then put together step-by-step plans of attack for most of the goals. Its letting me track my progress as well and that has really helped me keep momentum going. I actually had a goal to Get Out of Credit Card Debt (http://bit.ly/9qb7w5) and by following my Plan, I made it happen. Achieving that one goal has really motivated me to chase the rest of my goals that much harder. Good luck to all of the rest of the people.
