Indefinite Goals for a 3 - 5 Year Period
In 3-5 years where will you be? What will you be doing? With whom will you be associated? How do you want to be living? Think about it.
Make the goal functional and Flexible.
Be flexible in regard to a territory, team and how you are going to specifically achieve your goal. Do not put unnecessary limitations upon yourself. Instead, be general in that you are going to be a sales manager making $125,000 a year.
Why flexibility? A highly motivated person who is operating on goals needs flexibility. Because he/she is an opportunist in a positive sense, he/she will see the opportunities and be flexible enough to react to those opportunities.
Once you have a goal, you need additional resources and information. You must acquire additional resources in accordance with your desire and goals. From successful people you can draw this additional information, but only from those who know what is needed for you to accomplish your goal. Thus, you have added resources to your storehouse of knowledge.
