Goal is very important if we want to be successful in life. If you want were planning to drive somewhere you would never been before, wouldn’t you consult a road map?

Life is also the same way. You can wander along never knowing for sure where you are going, or you can set goals and develop plans. Goals and plans are like road maps. They guarantee you a smooth trip, but they will tell you the right direction in which to travel. Without them, life is like getting lost in a freeway interchange. You can go around in circle for a long time with out getting anywhere.

Some people hesitate to get goals. One rationale I have heard lately is that that it’s better to have no goals and be pleasantly surprised when good things happen, than to set goals and be discouraged when you fail to reach them. That’s an interesting, but dangerous approach.

It’s idealistic to assume that good things will automatically happen. It’s fatalistic to assume that one will; fail to reach a goal. Those who set goals achieve them far more often than they fail. They also have more good things happening in their lives.

When you’re out for a Sunday drive with no destination in mind, you may not need a road map – unless, of course, you become lost and can’t find your way home. While Sunday driving may be a relaxing way to spend the afternoon, it’s a poor way to spend your life.

Remember, a road map to Miami I no guarantee of a vacation in the sun, but it will tell you which way to drive
