Why Do You Need to Set a Goal? -Avontix



Even if you are an occasional reader, you might have come across the topic of goal setting more than once. Most of the articles that talk about success and ways to succeed include goal setting and how to reach those goals. In other words, success is reaching the goals that have been set, either by you or someone else. But, have you ever wondered why should we have a goal in the first place? What is the importance of goal setting? Goals play a very important role in the success you achieve. Here are the reasons why it is important to set goals and how goals lead us towards success.

  • Clarity:  Goals provide you clarity in thought. They help you understand what you really want. Working aimlessly doesn’t give you any success. If you don’t have a proper goal or aim, you will not have any direction and go as the wind takes you. By setting goals, you get clarity on which direction to go and how to go. This helps you to focus on a work that leads you to your target.
  • Belief: Goals help in believing yourself. When you have a target set for yourself, you tend to work towards it because you don’t want to fail. This makes you believe in your strengths and resources. 
  • Motivation: When you set your goals, you get motivated to work towards it. You get excited and work with great enthusiasm. You start working consistently and with persistence. If not for the goal, you will not have that patience and motivation to work hard. With a goal ahead, you will not get deviated by any kind of distractions. You are subconsciously so motivated and focused that you keep a distance from people and situations that may distract from your goal.
  • Action: With certain set goals, you can overcome procrastination which makes even the most talented person remain a dud. You jump into action when you have a target to reach and you make yourself accountable for the failure. This makes sure that you get out of your comfort zone and start working hard to accomplish what you really want. 
  • Progress:  Setting goals helps you to measure your progress. Without a proper aim in your life, you become stagnant. There will not be any momentum in your life without a target to reach. When you have your goals set, you work towards it and achieve them. This makes you progress in career and life. 


It’s really important to set your goals to lead a successful life. The meaning of success may differ from person to person. But to succeed, you need to set your goals first. So, if you have not yet set any aim, do it now. Setting goals and accomplishing them will make you grow as a person. It will give a better life.
