One of the key takeaway from my MBA courses was learning the art of goal setting.


  1. The SMART principle: Specific, Measurable, Action-oriented, Realistic, Time-bound

  2. Positive wording & subconscious power: Instead of "I don't want to be....", say:"I am .....". Instead of "I want to ....", say:"I have successfully done ..."

  3. Clarify motivation: Why do I want to achieve this?

  4. Be detailed: When, where, with what, how do I achieve the goal?


Goals are not just plans - they are the language with which we program our subconscious mind. Today, I will set both my short-term and long-term life goals using what I have learned, and see how this approach can make a real difference.
