Setting goals is as so important for success in SFI as in any other enterprise because goals are essentially what the SFI Affiliate aims to achieve - success!

Experts say one is about 10 times more likely to succeed with set written goals. The SFI Rules of Success urges the Affiliate to "set goals ... and publish them:

Thus SFI Affiliates set and review goals via:

As many people before me have pointed out - having/setting goals gives your actions a sense of direction, shows you the end result of your endavors.

What I would like to point out is that setting goals is important also in your life, simply because goals direct our actions and reflect what we want to achieve in life.

Remember one thing, however: nothing is carved in stone as far as your life is concerned. You are free to set, change, and re-set your goals to reflect your personal

Direction: Without even the smallest of goals, it is easy to feel as though we lack direction or are lost. Having goals focuses our energy, and enables us to work towards something we value. When we feel as though we are floundering or aren’t quite sure where life is going, setting goals can help us get back on course.

Individual Purpose: Goals, whether big or small, are vitally important to giving us individuality and purpose. Goals can be personal, social, political…anything that

Setting goals is the only option in any business expecting to grow. In a business where there are lots of expectations, the sky is the limit. When you set a goal you become active and thus making sure you do something everyday to get you closer to your goal. If you have none, then working hard becomes an option and success also moves away from you.

Success is a target that could be seen at some distance. To get to it you have to take one step at a time. This steps are set as the goals

Goal setting is important in your business as well as in life. Without the goal you can't reach anywhere because you don't know where to go.If you don't know where to reach then you are roaming aimlessly and will never be satisfied with whatever you are doing. So goal setting is very important to know the answers of the following:
Who---is involved? The answer is "I".
What--you want to achieve? (Financial freedom for life).
Where--will I achieve it? (at SFI).
When--will

Failing to plan is planning to fail.

We've all heard it. And we all know it's true.

If you don't set goals, you don't know where you are going. However, if you look at where you want to be in a year, break down that long-term goal into monthly and weekly goals, you have a much better chance of getting where you're going.

Goals should be SMART: specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and

Goals are what take us forward in life, but especially in your SFI business.

They are the first steps to every journey we embark on and the foundation for all of the steps in between.
We should try to make goals (short term or long term), because only through this process of goal setting can we ever become successful.

Here are 5 reasons why goal setting is so important:
1. Goals Bring us Unity and Focus
2. Goals Allow us to Measure Progress
3. Goals Give

"When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing, then we truly live life." - Greg Anderson

The most important aspect of a human life is setting and meeting goals and objectives.
Why?

The fact is that in my work WITH SFI.
How?

When you turn on a road with clear directions and desires carefully worded, you actually schedule yourself for success, to achieve those goals.
