Mile Markers of Progress


Everyone like to progress, however progress is relative and it needs a reference point. Goals are the reference point. Goals help you see how you are doing and whether you are on track.
By setting goals, an individual is able to measure progress. Goals are like mile-markers on the success journey.
If you want success in life, then you need to define success and then break it down to achievable and measurable goals. If you want to be a licensed pilot you need to set goals on when to finish the class aspect, the simulation, the flight hours, the test etc. Without such goals, your desire to become a pilot may stay intact, however you will not be able to see progress.
"your dream determines your goals.
your goals map out your actions.
your actions create results.
and the results bring you success."

"Recognize the power and importance of goals. While you work on them, they work on you. And what you get by reaching your goals is not nearly as important as what you become by reaching them." John C Maxwell

So set your goals so that they assist you along the journey and they can continue to work on you as you work on them.
