I recently tweeted (in December 2012) one of Napoleon Hill’s best quotes “A goal is a dream with a deadline.” As I was typing, I realized that simply tweeting this quote did not do justice to one this quotes most important points. During our quarterly planning GrowthCLUB workshop we invest a considerable amount of time discussing the definition of a goal and how to convert dreams into goals. We discuss taking my client’s dreams and desires into SMARTER goals.
Once the participants in the GrowthCLUB create goals, they prioritize them, put them into a logical order and then list them in the next quarter’s ActionPLAN, or place them into a “Parking Lot” to be included in subsequent ActionPLANs. We can and do have extended, in depth discussions about this subject, as there are many, many layers to it. Yet, in a simple eight-word sentence Napoleon Hill captures the essential message. So, I ask you, what are you doing to turn your dreams into goals, into plans, into action? My colleagues and I are ready to assist you in taking your dreams to action to success. All you have to do is contact one of us.
