There is one not so secret about those people who achieve great things. They set and commit to goals. The most successful achievers commit to four types of goals (personal growth, healthy lifestyle, networking, and helping others).

If you cannot commit to all of them, then choose at least two personal growth and healthy lifestyle goals and one networking and servant goal.

15 Goals Everyone Should Pursue for 2015

Another year is almost in the books—only a few short weeks remaining. Here’s the question. How much did you progress towards your personal goals? Remember those New Year’s resolutions that you set 11 months ago? If they are just a distant memory, it may be time to ask yourself how you will fare better in 2015. Ultimately, it is about committing to a clear set of goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-oriented. The popular acrostic S.M.A.R.T. is used to describe these measurable aspirations. To help with your goal-setting for 2015, I’d like you to consider these 15 goals that everyone should pursue.

How to set 2015 Goals

There is one not so secret about those people who achieve great things. They set and commit to goals. The most successful achievers commit to four types of goals (personal growth, healthy lifestyle, networking, and helping others).

Personal growth goals push you towards your life’s purpose and/or vocational excellence.

Healthy lifestyle goals help you maintain the core physical, psychological, and spiritual strength necessary to sustain you through difficult times.

Networking goals allow you to leverage the relationships with others to grow as a person and open further possibilities.

Finally, Servant goals remind you that helping others is ultimately the most important accomplishment.

With these objectives in mind, consider the fifteen goals for 2015. They may not all be applicable to you. But, choose the ones that are relevant.

If you cannot commit to all of them, then choose at least two personal growth and healthy lifestyle goals and one networking and servant goal.
