Goal Setting: Setting Ambitious Goals

If you are reading this article you know you should have written goals, if you don’t then write some down now. Goal setting is the key to moving your life faster in the direction you want to go. Most people have boring goals. How do we make our goals more exciting?

Having big exciting goals is vital if you want enthusiasm in your life. No one gets excited by little goals. When you set goals you should aim for the sky, not the ceiling. It is better to aim for the sky and miss than to aim for the ceiling and hit it.

For example if your goal is to earn $100,000 in a year, add a zero to that and make it $1 million dollars. No one gets excited over mediocre goals. Another example of this is if your net worth goal is $1 million, add a zero to it to make it $10 million. These last two examples come from T. Harv Eker, author of the Millionaire Mind.

Although his book is about how to become wealthy he does go over some good basic goal setting techniques that you can use in any area of your life.

Sit down with your list of written goals and ask yourself if you are excited about all of them. Are you excited about them? If you are not, then you will likely not achieve them no matter how easy they are to accomplish.

If your goals are boring, then re-write them in a way where you can be excited about them. Remember to aim for the sky, not the ceiling; ambitions goals will give your life the passion everyone is always seeking.
