Having Clear Goals

Once upon a time, there lived a sage which lived in the deep forests. One day, Jerry decided to pay a visit to the sage to learn from him. When Jerry arrived and made known his intentions, the sage proceeded to tie an apple to the branch of a tree. The sage moved back 50 metres, pulled out his arrow, and with his bow, he shot the apple accurately. Jerry was amazed.

Without a word, the sage tied another apple to the branch of a tree. This time, he blindfolded himself and then followed to shoot. However, this time round, he missed the apple by a big margin. Jerry was disappointed.

Jerry thought great of the sage but the miss dampened his spirits. He questioned the sage about it. The sage replied,"In life, one needs to have a clear target. Only when you have a clear goal, would you then be able to move forward in life."

This leads me into writing about proper goal setting today. Let's look at the SMART method of goal setting.

Measurable - Goals set should be 3 times what you can easily achieve
