A goal differs from a dream because it not only has an image, but also a real way to achieve it. Without concrete means and actions that make it possible to achieve goals, one can only dream and fantasize. A goal is an ideal mental expectation of the result of human action and how to achieve it with the help of certain means. In other words, a goal is a possibility, an imagined future event or state of affairs, the implementation of which is desirable for a person (future personal image). At the same time, the means and means that may be required to achieve it are always consistent with the goal. Otherwise, this desired future will only be a combination of elements (lack of possible means) or a futile dream (lack of means to achieve). Therefore, a goal is always something aimed at doing a certain action of a person. No action, no goal. And vice versa. The fulfillment of our own desires and the realization of dreams largely depends on how accurately we set goals. Goal setting rules help make our aspirations and desires come true. Therefore, in this article we will consider in detail the question - "How to set goals correctly?", and we will understand how to translate our desires and dreams into categories of real and clear goals that can be achieved. Before I set a goal, make sure that we ourselves are fully responsible for achieving it. To avoid the temptation to shift responsibility for my failures to others, set yourself goals that you can achieve without outside help. This rule of goal setting will save me in the future (if you don't achieve something) from the wrong conclusion when making a mistake. Get your goals right, First, goals, like ideas, must be written on paper (notebook, diary, diary). Goals written in detail have a greater chance of being realized. If you think you can keep it in your head without formulating a goal on paper, then don't flatter yourself for achieving it. Such goals can be safely attributed to the category of dreams.
