Set New (and bigger) Goals
By Tom Venuto GHF’s

If you ever feel unmotivated and you want to get over it,
just take a look at your goal list. What? You don't carry a frequently
updated, written goal list around with you? Well, I guess we know why
you're not motivated don't we?
Goal setting is not an event - it is an ongoing process.
When you move up the ladder to intermediate status, the modest goals
of a beginner are a thing of the past. "I am walking for 30 minutes
three days every week" is a great beginning, but now it's time
to move out of the minor leagues.
Goals are the fuel in the fire of motivation. Goals get
you out of bed early and into the gym in the morning. Goals keep you
on the treadmill for forty-five minutes when you feel like stopping
at thirty. In a set of ten reps, goals are what make you push for that
eleventh and twelfth rep.
Goals are so much more powerful than you can imagine. Read
any book on the subconscious mind, such as "Psycho Cybernetics"
by Maxwell Maltz or "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind"
by Dr. Joseph Murphy and you'll begin to understand why goals are so
important. If you don't have goals...and if you don't have a new set
of them every few months, then you're not ready to move up to the next
level. And one last thing - a goal is not a goal if it's not in writing
- its only a wish (as in wishy-washy).
