Abstract

Personal goals are an issue today that many individuals are faced with who desire to be successful in their life. In fact, we must have personal goals in order to be successful and productive at work, enjoy love and family relationships, and of course, the ever-ambiguous task of living. Most of us accomplish this task by looking to our mentors such as: parental figures, older siblings, supervisors, or even someone famous. The real question should be asked, "What are my goals?"

I suppose that is part of life. So far, I have found that setting personal goals is the driving force behind the motivation that pushes us to our accomplishments, provides us with focus and direction, and is key to a successful life.
