Goal Setting 5
Hi, my name is Abiodun Fijabi and I warmly welcome you to today’s edition of Leading Right.
By now, you should be considering setting goals if you have not already started to do so. You will be right on track to give greater attention to goals and goals setting. All great leaders do.
We will conclude our discussion on the benefits of goals this morning. Goal encourages the maximum use of resources. That should be obvious, I should think. It is one good reason why any right thinking leaders should set goals. It is regrettable that not many leaders or would-be-leaders see the need to maximize the use of their resources. That explains why so many dissipate energies on non-essentials and burn out soon before they achieve substantial portion of their dream. They get plucked out of their vision like a flower in its blossom.
As soon as you set up a goals programme, your resources are assigned. Your gifting, your relationships, your time, your financial and mental resources already have direction. They are at an attention, waiting to be deployed in the pursuit of your vision. Few things are more important to a leader than for him to have the resources available to him to have a clearly defined focus. It gives him leverage over others. It saves him from the tyranny of the urgent that seeks to tear him away into needless but urgent tasks.
In the end, he gets away with fewer resources than his peers. The maximum use of his resources has given him an edge.
Dear listener, you can do a lot with the few resources you have at present, if only you will set goals. You might think you do not have enough money, time or connections. Wait until you set goals and you will be amazed at how much you can accomplish with so little.
The power of goal setting is at your disposal, it is left for you to use it. And with it save yourself from dissipating your scarce resources and move with greater ease towards the realization of your dream.
Use it and be sure to start today.
