Alpha Gamma Solutions reviews the 10 Golden Rules for Goal Setting Success
With very few people taking practical and necessary steps to achieve their goals, Leicester-based outsourced sales and marketing firm, Alpha Gamma Solutions has reviewed 10 golden rules for goal setting success.
Goal setting is one of the key elements for businesses to set themselves up for achieving their targets. Nevertheless, the majority of people underestimate what they can actually do and stop working towards their goals before achieving them. Direct sales and marketing firm Alpha Gamma Solutions has shared ten golden rules to help others to achieve their goals. “Especially in our industry, goal setting is vital to our success. When we meet with our clients, we discuss our goals and how to achieve them,” explains Alpha Gamma Solutions.
- Write it down
In order to set smart goals, Alpha Gamma Solutions recommends to write them down. “Looking at your goals on a daily basis reminds you of what you want to achieve.”
- Be smart
In order to be successful, goals need to specific and they must be measurable, achievable, realistic and time bound. Alpha Gamma Solutions explains: “Wanting to have a lot of success this year is not a smart goal.” Instead, a smart goal could be to achieve an increase of 15 per cent in sales in quarter three in 2016.
- Be clear
There will be a time along the way when people lose focus of what they want to achieve. In order to stay on track with goals, they must find clarity and put their priorities right to remind themselves every day why they do what they do. Temptation and resistance can be overcome when priorities are set.
- Divide big goals into small ones
Alpha Gamma Solutions says that goals can look overwhelming and therefore they may seem harder to achieve. Breaking down a three-month goal into monthly, weekly and daily targets will help people stay focused.
- Take action daily
Looking at the target every single day keeps it in people’s minds and helps them work towards it every single day. A monthly goal doesn’t seem hard to achieve if the daily goals are met.
- Don’t stop
Alpha Gamma Solutions says: “Remind yourself everyday why you do what you do and use this as key motivator to continuously achieve your daily goals.”
- Think big
According to research, the subconscious mind tells people what they can and what they cannot do. Alpha Gamma Solutions says: “No matter how big your vision is, by following our ten-step guide, no goal is impossible to achieve.”
- Communicate your goals
Sharing goals with others makes them more accountable, explains Alpha Gamma Solutions. By doing so, opportunities may come up, such as finding a coach or talking to someone who was in a similar situation.
- Stay positive
“Surround yourself with positive people who share your vision,” says the direct marketing firm. Negativity may have an impact on someone’s self-belief that the goal can be achieved.
- Continuously develop yourself
Self-development is inevitable. “Invest in your future, keep learning. The more you know, the easier it may seem to achieve your goals,” adds Alpha Gamma Solutions.
