The importance of setting goals

No doubt that setting goals is one of the most important things you have to do in life to succeed, not only financially, but also in other aspects of life such as family, health, love and many other things.


However, the vast majority of people do not have a comprehensive plan of goals, this means do not set targets for all aspects of life, and if they do, they do it in a very general way, so they are very likely to fail.

The goal setting is important because it tells us exactly where we want to reach, if we are looking for financial independence, then setting a specific goal will guide us and all that we do in life will be focused on that goal. Although I must be clear, I think the best thing is not only set a goal on one aspect of life, such as financial independence, but there is also putting together a comprehensive plan of goals, so we can see if some goals intend to interfere with others goals in that we set in other aspects of life, and therefore each goal can be adapted  to reach a plan that can guide us to the life that we want.
To give an example, if the goal that one puts on the financial side interferes with the goal that one sets out on family life, then you have what you have to do is to reformulate the two targets or the one that you consider is the least important of the two, so you achieve that goal and not to fail in the other.
So the best is to list all the goals you want to realize in life, and organize them into a comprehensive plan goals.
