Psalm 16verse 8 ‘I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.’
You are welcome to our discussion on why you need to set goals! Being a goal-setter and getter helps you get more of life and live your life to the fullest. Setting goals will do you a lot of good; this is why God is also bringing these messages your way today. So why do you need to be a goal-setter? What will setting goals do for you?
3. It will give your life a sense of direction and purpose. Setting goals helps you in order words to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. The truth of the matter is that many people are just drifting through life, but now is the time to say no to every form of aimless living! It is time to begin to live a life of purpose and meaning. This is made possible by being a goal-setter. Philip 3v14. So, my dear reader, it’s time to stop living a life of anything but a life of being specific and intentional. Make up your mind that you will stop being a wandering personality to becoming a meaningful specific. It’s time to say no to a worthless life. Start living a life of meaning and purpose today, as you embrace the spirit of setting goals.
4. It helps you to be in control of things in your life. This is one of the major advantages of setting goals that you need to leverage. Are you in control of things, or are things out of your control? Are you in charge, or are things in control of you? You can only proffer answers to these questions because you are a goal-setter. My dear friends, I have discovered that if you don’t set goals, you will have either of the following options:
-You will be at the mercy of those who set goals. i.e. controlled by those who set goals
-You will be at the mercy of the circumstances of life; I e the circumstance will control your life.
-You will live a life that is out of control. i.e. a life of anything goes!
So, my dear reader, it’s time to live a selective Life. It’s time for you to leverage the power of goals. It’s time for you to fully embrace this habit and disposition of setting goals. As you do this faithfully, you notice a new you and also a better result. May this be your testimony and lot in Jesus name, amen.
