The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the sport field and never score.You can walk around the gym, without ever gaining any result. Understanding the importance of goal setting and knowing how to set goals for yourself is crucial to accomplishing great things in your life and for your fitness.

There is a very common pattern that comes with working towards goals that we are all familiar with: you set your mind to something, you get excited and work like mad, and then motivation starts to wane. Having goals that you can focus on and visualize helps you better connect yourself with your inner desires, and gives you the motivational energy you need to work through periods where your focus inevitably starts to wane.

Proper goal setting can help break larger, intimidating aspirations into smaller, more achievable stepping stones.

Planning towards these smaller goals not only makes it easier to formulate a definite plan of action that we can start working on right away, but research has shown that hitting smaller milestones provides real motivation and greater contentment. For example, if your desire is to lose weight, try not think about losing all the weight at once, break it down to monthly or even weekly goals.

Setting goals for yourself is a way to fuel your ambition. Do you want to accomplish something that many people dream about, but few people ever actually accomplish? Unless you make it a goal for yourself and work every day towards achieving it, why would you ever believe that you could accomplish it? Unless you see yourself slowly making progress, your dreams and aspirations is nothing more than vague notions floating around in your imagination.

I suggest always writing down concrete goals and give a timeline for achievement.

Imagine you are on a vacation. You have a limited amount of time to take in all the sights, sounds, and experiences of a foreign land. Wouldn't you want to figure out exactly what you want to do and what you want to see? Or would you wander around, hoping to find something interesting? And if you do have some sights and landmarks in mind that you want to visit, wouldn't you do a little research to find out how to get there? Or would you wander around, hoping that you'll eventually find the place you're looking for?

In many ways, life is like a vacation!! When I travel around to different countries, I have a set plan on what and where I would like to go. Without a clear sense of what you want to do and where you want to go, you will never be able to live life to the fullest and achieve the fitness goals that you want to aspire.

Make it happen!
