Goal setting allowed you to know your direction in life. It serves as a compass and does not allow waste.
WHAT IS SUCCESS?
Attaining the goal God has set for us in life, and seeing yourself advancing from where you were or more than your worth yesterday.
WHERE CAN YOU SUCCEED?
You can succeed anywhere you find yourself, either in Africa, in Europe, in America or any part of the world. You can succeed either in business or in personality, in the kingdom service to God, in family and whatever you lay your hands on.
WHO CAN SUCCEED?
Those who are informed. Life is a continuous process of learning. The information we gathered in our every day life is knowledge, and the application of this knowledge is wisdom. You can succeed, I can succeed, we all can succeed. Every contender is likely to succeed. If we all put in as a prospective contender we all could be winners. One with goal is likely to succeed nine times likely than one without goal.
WHAT IS GOAL, AND WHAT ARE THE SOURCES OF GOAL?
A goal is the purpose or objective towards which an endeavor is directed. And there are three sources of goal:
1: Dream
2: Vision
3: Mission in Life
From our dreams, we get a vision and the mission to achieve it. Dreams are series of images, ideas, emotion, and sensation occurring involuntarily in the mind or in our subconsciousness.
WHAT GOAL DO I SET?
Have something in mind to achieve. We can indeed take great example from our Lord Jesus Christ. There are two things in Jesus. His life on earth takes us to Heaven, while His principle makes us a success on earth.
GOAL DISTRACTION
Goal distraction are things we see if our eyes are off our goals. These may come in form of Obstacles, Criticism, Circumstances, other people and lack of self control.
WHAT IS VISION?
Vision is a calculated attempt to achieve your dream. Where you are, where you are going and how to get there, and what to do when you get there. These steps have to be calculated and mapped out your strategies. Vision sees the invisible, believes the incredible. Lets go biblical a bit. Noah's vision of an ark, Gen6. Abraham's vision of a city in the wild Gen.12. Nehemiah vision of a completed wall, Nehemiah 1. Peter's vision to evangelize the gentiles Acts 10. Such are the power of vision.
WHAT IS A MISSION?
Mission is the task, together with the action to achieve it. 20% of what we do will accomplish 80% of what we want.
Dream big act big. Dream more while awake. Set a goal for yourself and go after it. The goal you set for yourself should be S-M-A-R-T-E-R
S- Specific
M- Measurable
A- Attainable
R- Realistic
T- Time Bound
E- Enjoyable
R- Rewarding
Your goal should be endless, once one is achieved, set another goal for yourself. Goal must be personal, stated positively, and should include character change, and must be in writing.

Why do people fail to set Goal?
These are probable explanation I could find why people fail to set goal for themselves.
1. Misunderstanding of the scripture
2. Laziness
3. No desire to grow
4. Fear of change. Champs don't fear failure.
5. Fear of failure. No one makes you inferior without your consent.
