Any entrepre- neur can tell you that fail- ure is just another step in the jour- ney to suc- cess. What's important is how you re- act to those failures. First, realize that you're not alone. A survey re- ported in Inc. magazine revealed that 77 percent of small business owners have yet to reach their vi- sion for their companies. Don't waste valuable time beating yourself up over missed goals. Accord- ing to a report by Psy- chology Today, this will lower your energy and feel- ings of self-worth, mak- ing it harder to get back on track. To move forward, it's important to analyze whether poor goal set- ting is what tripped you up. This is all too com- mon, and according to The Globe and Mail Career Lab series, you're more likely to succeed if you set SMART (Specific, Measurable, At- tainable, Results Driven, Timely) goals. Drilldown According to an article by Dr. Heidi Grant Halvor- son, thousands of stud- ies have shown the impor- tance of narrowing your goals to specific, concrete targets. So, rather than setting a broad goal, like "achiev- ing better success at work," set specific benchmarks that are measurable, such as reaching a certain po- sition, or making a tar- get salary or commission. To support this long-range goal, assign yourself me- dium-term steps, which you'll need to accomplish to reach your target. Get feedback from your boss or mentor on what you'll need to achieve to meet this goal, and which stum- bling blocks you may have to overcome. Keepitreal If the only way to make your goal is to work a 70- hour work week for the next year, you are likely go- ing to burn out. Inc. mag- azine notes that while a challenge is important, if you set goals that are too challenging, you will wind up exhausted and unable to maintain the personal relationships in your life. Fatigue and burnout often lead to mistakes that limit your abilities to achieve your goals. Checkyourtime Once you have your goals in place, it's essen- tial to align time man- agement with your fu- ture plan, according to an article in the Har- vard Business Review. This will help you deter- mine whether the way you spend your time now is going to allow you to reach your future goals. Look for things that bog you down, distract you or steal time from your ob- jectives. The idea is to find any areas of misalignment, and then adjust your work- flow or the goal, as needed. Don'tgoitalone It's easier to meet any goal when you have sound advice and guidance from others. In fact, an arti- cle by life coach Lesley Knowles notes that ac- cepting help and support from others is essential to success. Friends and family can be your greatest cheer- leaders and offer help- ful encouragement. On the business side, your best bet is to find a men- tor who is knowledgeable in your field. A good men- tor can help you stay fo- cused on your goals, sug- gest new strategies you may not have considered, and hold you accountable if you become distracted from your plan. Better goal setting can make a real difference in your ability to overcome roadblocks on your path to success. Before you set your next round of goals, make sure you take a mo- ment to enjoy your suc- cess. Celebrate with those who supported your jour- ney. Then, consider which goal setting elements helped you get where you are, and use them to set your vision for the future. SubmittedbyLisa Hansen, owner of Express Employment Professionals, 243 S.
