Why is goal setting important?
You probably already know that goal setting is important. It's one common trait shared by all successful people who have accomplished great things in many fields.
According to studies, when people set goals, business owners make more profit, employees get larger raises, professors get tenure faster, even students learn up to 250% faster when goals are set for them far, far more than if they are merely told to 'do their best.'
Goal Success Rate: 8%!
Yet you may also know that even though we set goals, not all of us succeed in achieving them. According to a study conducted by the University of Scranton, just 8 percent of people achieve their New Year goals, while around 80 percent fail to keep their New Year resolutions. Maybe you are one of those who routinely failed to achieve some of the goals you set. I know I was.
Why do so many of us fail?
If goal setting is so important and is supposed to make us better, why do so many of us fail?
Internet is full of articles telling you why you are not achieving your goals. But beyond all the buzz and noises, there is a fundamental reason why people are not successful with their goals. And the reason is simply that goal setting is a skill and most people are poor at it.
Goal setting is a meta-skill
Goal setting is one of the key life meta-skills that apply broadly to a wide set of problems or help you acquire other more specific skills. Just like how important mastering math is to become successful in all kinds of sciences, with a strong mastery of goal-setting skills, you will be more effective and efficient in achieving goals of many different kinds and in many different life areas.
Unfortunately, most people have never truly learned the art and science of goal setting. As a result, they don't know how to get what they want – whether it's an A in Biology, a new job or a smaller jean size. Goal setting is a learned skill – not something we just inherently know how to do. Nobody was born with it.
To become a high achiever in life, goal setting is one of the most important skills you should master. If you want your dreams or desires to become reality, you must master this meta-skill.
How to improve your goal setting skills?
Goal setting is not just one single skill, but rather a set of core skills working together for you to achieve a certain goal. You may be naturally good at some of these skills, but to really improve your overall goal setting success rate, you must learn to master all of these sub-skills.
Here is a list of the top 9 skills that are most critical for achieving any type of goal in work, business, and personal life.
Set Right Goals
Know when and how to set goals of the right kind such as internal/external goals, process/outcome goals, etc.
Manage Change
Understand how to manage the stages people go through to make positive changes that last.
Design Effective Plans
Know how to design and implement planning strategies that work best for different kind of goals.
Execute Well
Follow your plan and stick to it and know when and how to get back on track when facing setbacks and frustrations.
Stay Motivated
Make the right use of willpower yet not totally rely on it to stay on the course until the goal is reached.
Use Patience
Cultivate the virtue of patience to help you become a more resilient person when the going gets tough.
Enjoy The Process
Learn to enjoy the journey and make the process flow to stay in the game for the long haul.
Monitor Progress
Know how to track progress and make process tracking a central indicator of how you are doing on your goals.
Increase Luck
Understand the luck factor in your success and know how to increase your luck to reach your goals faster.
It's All Learnable!
Any improvement in any of these 9 skills will give you a big boost in achieving more success with your goals. Any weakness in any of these skills will easily derail you from achieving your dream goal.
None of these skills are difficult to learn. It's not that hard. But you do need to put in the time and effort to learn, and then practice. Over time you'll get better and better at these core goal setting skills. Then you will be able to approach any goal with ease and confidence and have a greater chance at achieving it.
How is this course different?
Goal Mastery Academy program, which is an online personal development course that is designed to improve your skill level in the mastery of all 9 core goal setting skills.
What this course teaches is not the usual superficial stuff that you can easily find in articles and blog posts all over the Internet, but rather in-depth research and studies, detailed knowledge, thorough explanations and also with practical and real-world implementation guides.
The trouble with current goal-setting advice
If you read a lot of the stuff that’s written on goal-setting, it usually contains the same, wrong-headed advice:
- Decide where you want to be 10 years from now.
- Break that goal down into monthly goals.
- Work towards those, and eventually, you’ll reach your destination.
On paper that looks simple, but implementing it can be anything but.
- It tells you to decide where you want to be, but not tell you how to make a better decision and more importantly what type of goals you should set for your life.
- It tells you to break down a goal, but not mention how to do it effectively.
- It tells you to work towards your goals, but ignore so many important issues in the process of working toward your goals.
Science-based and applicable teachings
But this course will give you all of those detailed answers and show you exactly how you can apply them in your goal setting process. Unlike other courses on goal setting, which may teach you a few things based on the authors personal experiences, all the content in this course is entirely evidence-based and backed by science.
All the advice and strategies taught in the course have already worked for thousands of people and even hundreds of years. So if it works for everyone else, it should also work for you.

Why I Created This Course
Goal setting is such a critical life skill that I wish I'd learned it well decades ago. It took me more than 20 years to learn, practice and experiment with what works and what doesn't, for myself and others. I've read and researched over 80 major works on personal development and goal achievement. Over the years, I've accomplished more than 260 goals, big and small (I documented my goal journeys in GoalsOnTrack). There's so much science and research behind goal setting in recent years. Missing out on this valuable body of knowledge and wisdom is truly a loss to all of us who want to achieve great goals and live a more successful life. That's why I created this course so that you don't have to let years go by without proper training in goal setting. This course has the best information and most practical advice you can use to help your goal-setting journey. Hope you will enjoy and benefit from the course as much as I created it.
