[PCI Weekly] Issue #12: Goal Setting

Decide What You Want and Achieve It

Welcome to another issue of PCI Weekly, the newsletter that helps you become more powerful, creative, and influential in life and business through the study and application of NLP, Personal Development, and related disciplines.

This week’s issue is all about goal setting. As we come to the end of the year, many people are starting to think about New Year’s resolutions, which usually involve some kind of goal. They come up with all sorts of things they want to accomplish by next year such as getting in shape, learning a new language, making more money, etc.

When the new year hits, everyone is super motivated and seems ready to do what it takes. But give it a few months, and you’ll see that the majority of those who set bold and audacious goals ended up fizzling out.

Why is that?

There are probably lots of reasons, but it mostly comes down to not setting proper goals.

If you fail to properly set your goals, then you’re goal setting to fail.

With that said, here are 3 resources from around the web to help you master goal setting so you can become the minority of people who accomplish their New Year’s resolutions.

Let’s dive in.
