Getting a Grip on Simple Goalsetting: Getting A Grip, #5

By Robyn Pearce

Ten Quick Keys To Help You Achieve Your Dreams 
 

Do you ever think, 'I'm not sure how to set goals. I'll look into it one day – when I've got more time'?

Here's the thing. More than 80 percent (including those who've already done some goalsetting in the past) don't have a current list of clear goals. And amongst those who do have current goals, only about five percent have a comprehensive 'all-of-life' list of goals written down.

Time Queen Robyn Pearce was once a broke single mother of six children, on government welfare. One day a friend handed her a book about goalsetting, and that knowledge changed her life. Today she's a multi-title author who helps people all around the globe with their time problems. And – the first step to mastering time is to have clear goals.

So, if you ever struggle to work out what your goals might be, or you know you should write them down but don't know where to start, this practical easy-to-apply title by Robyn will give you step-by-step instructions.
 

You'll learn things such as:

• Why people struggle with goalsetting
• How to find your goals
• How to set goals that inspire, not just routine 'must do's
• How to blend practical reality with dream goals and come up with a winning formula

The Kick in the Guts That Introduced Me to Goalsetting

I’m a qualified librarian by my first career, and married young. After fifteen years as a farmer’s wife and raising six kids (five I birthed, plus a foster son with intellectual disabilities) I was forced to return to the workforce after my marriage broke up.

In the small provincial town near my home, the only job that even partly used my qualifications was a part-time teacher aide position in a school library—at very low pay on a government work scheme. It was so poorly paid that I still qualified for another government benefit!

I was grateful for the job and the school hours were excellent as far as the children were concerned. However, after a few years, I became tired of the endless effort to keep things together on a subsistence income. We were just above the breadline—an ice-cream for everyone once a week was the height of luxury!

At that time, I knew nothing about success principles. I was like a rudderless boat, floating where the tide took me, just getting by from day to day. But once I learned about goalsetting, life changed dramatically.
