To help our clients planning, the front page will post excerpts from the book Gettable Goals (c)JonLonergan 2008.

The book is a compilation of principles that successful people - achievers - use to set goals.
One noticeable thing about achievers is that by and large they choose goals that can be got. You might have noticed that the performer Prince did not become a member of the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team. I doubt that Mickey Rooney tried out for them either!

Getting your dreams realised in the real world is great but when the attempt is based purely on wishful thinking then you're headed for failure.
This doesn't necessarily mean you will fail of course. After all. someone has to win the lottery.

Formulating goals
Number One: What do you want?<

It's hard to achieve a goal if you don't know what you want. You may feel dissatisfied with something but if you don't know what you want instead, you'll just be stuck in a state of dissatisfaction with whatever the concern is. So what do you want?

Number Two: What do you want by having this?

Sometimes we can't get what we want until we think of what we would ultimately get by having what we want.
This can allow us to find other, effective ways of achieving our desires. So you might want a Rolls Royce to drive but if it's really the smell of leather seats that makes you feel rich, a feeling you really like, then perhaps a cheaper car with leather seats might meet your emotional needs even if you aren't rich.

Another example might be going for a particular job because it's an outdoors job. Even if you don't get that particular position there are still other jobs that are outdoors. You may not be able to get a painting job but perhaps a park ranger position would work instead.

The principle is: if you're not getting what you want, then maybe you can still get what you wanted out of that goal another way.

If you know what you'll have from getting the goal that makes that goal so appealing then you can be on the alert for other ways of getting it.

What about when you're negotiating over a new job? The other party might want you to trade dollars for something else. You'd best know what it is you get from your job. Even if all it is is money, you'll still need to know what you get from the money so you don't give-way on important points. If time with the family is more important to you than $ and getting more money means working longer hours, then is $ what you really want?
