People who have no direction in the desert can only spin around in vain, and people who have no goal in life can only repeat their mediocre life in boredom. For people in the desert, a new life begins in the chosen direction; For real people, a new life begins with setting goals. Just as air is to life, goals are absolutely necessary for success, so how can a person set his own goals?

1, determine the starting line and find your current position. Combined with your own reality, ask yourself what you want to do in the future and what kind of person you want to be, and take this as your goal. The goal should not be illusory or too great, because it is what you strive to achieve. If you can't achieve it, you will doubt yourself and feel frustrated.

We divide goals into long-term goals, medium-term goals and short-term goals. What you set now is your long-term goal.

2. Long-term goals are not enough. Every oak tree must be an acorn. You must have a goal for the next few years, which is your medium-term goal. Mid-term goals are very important, which can make you see the hope of struggle and strengthen your self-confidence. Many people do not pay attention to the establishment of medium-term goals when setting goals. They only set long-term goals in those years, but as time went on, they saw that the hope of achieving their goals was getting smaller and smaller, and they easily gave up their goals. They are contented and only care about immediate interests. Therefore, such people often accomplish nothing.

When making long-term and medium-term goals, you should pay attention to short-term goals, which is the first step to achieve them. How to do short-term goals will affect medium-term goals. The near-term goal is the foundation and your starting line. One must not lose at the starting line. Therefore, short-term goals must be specific, clear and time-bound. Short-term goals can be broken down into small goals, one by one, and go forward bravely.

Establish your own goals according to your actual situation. In the process of achieving this goal, you can break it down into small goals, which will give you a sense of accomplishment and self-confidence. In this way, you will achieve one goal after another. In the process of achieving small goals, you should make a detailed plan schedule and strictly follow the plan. Just like building a house, the architect draws a blueprint first, and then the construction team builds it. On the blueprint, just like every decoration at home, it should be clearly drawn and everything should be designed in an orderly way.

In order to achieve our goal, we should change our strategy at any time according to the situation, like a far-sighted general. If this plan can't be carried out, it must be replaced by another plan. But we must remember that we can change our plans on the road to success, but we should not change our goals easily. When I was giving a successful class to medical students, one student asked me how to achieve my goal, so I asked him, "What is your ideal for graduating from college?" He said, "Be an excellent surgeon like Dad." "Excellent surgeons are your goal." I told him, and then told him that this goal must be turned into practical action, so he broke it down into small goals, that is, what to learn in the first semester, what to learn in the second semester, what to learn in the third semester ... and made a detailed plan. At the same time, I also reminded him what to do in the face of monotonous life and boring study. How to treat his hobby correctly and make him mentally prepared? He is satisfied with my guidance.

For a teenager, it is very important to learn to set your own learning goals and have a sense of purpose. Goal consciousness is the starting point of goal learning. Learning goals are restricted and influenced by life goals, and they are all complex multi-level goal systems. Learning goals are subordinate to life goals, which are divided into lofty goals, long-term goals, medium-term goals, short-term goals and daily goals. Since it is a multi-level target system, the relationship between them is interrelated and mutually supportive. The upper goal guides and restricts the lower goal, which is the foundation of the upper goal and serves the upper goal.

Several problems that should be paid attention to when setting goals;

Many people work hard and spend a lot of youth and sweat, but somehow, they finally find that the ladder they are pursuing is on the wrong side, but they regret it. So, before you start setting goals, you must think carefully. When setting goals, we should pay attention to the following questions:

○ Your goal is something that others can't choose.

Your goal can only be chosen by yourself, and no one can replace you. This is not only because you are the practitioner of the goal, but also because only you can firm the goal. Whether you can be firm depends on whether it is out of your true will, whether it is out of your heart, and whether it will conform to your reality.

When I was giving a successful lesson to medical students, a female college student came to talk to me about her troubles after class. She told me that she was not interested in medicine at all, but she loved art very much and painted for me on the spot. I found out at a glance that she was really artistic. I asked her why she didn't report to art school and medical school. She said that her mother chose it for her, and she had no choice.

Her misfortune is also manifested in many other college students. Our parents never ask their children's feelings when choosing their children, but make their own decisions, which eventually leads to a lot of trouble and misfortune.

Rely on others to choose your goals, and you will only be led by others. You are always in a passive position, your intelligence can't be brought into play, and your potential is always buried and hidden. This kind of life, if not failure, there will be no good choice.

Each of us is willing to do what we want to do, and this is the goal. Only when you choose a goal will you cherish it, and you will have the determination and perseverance to fight for it. Although it is bitter, we are still very happy. How can such a goal and life be unsuccessful?

This is the case with Mr. Hou, a famous performing artist in China. Hou is the first person in China's phonological circle to learn to sing, which is not only related to his innate good voice, but also related to his study of (Lian) opera art. From the day he began to learn to sing, Hou set a unique standard for himself: It is not enough to say what drama to learn from cross talk, but also who to learn, Ma or Zhou? Of course, if you point it out, it's like closing people's eyes. Sounds really delicious. After unremitting pursuit, Mr. Wang finally got his wish and became the master of our country.

Of course, in the process of choosing goals, we should not be arbitrary, but listen to other people's opinions. As the saying goes, when people gather firewood, the flames are high, one fence has three piles, and one hero has three gangs. Because each of us has limited energy and ability, listening to other people's opinions and suggestions will broaden our thinking and help us make scientific decisions.

Listen to other people's opinions, but the decision is still up to you, what to do, what not to do, what the goal is, and in which direction; It's up to you. Remember: each of us should not only be able to choose our goals, but more importantly, we should be able to achieve them, which is the requirement of success for each of us.

○ Life can't just pursue small goals.

You can't just pursue small goals in life, but also have big goals. It's your big goal, not your small goal, which makes you and me successful.

You can't just pursue small goals in life. The newspaper once reported that 300 whales died in a certain sea area. It turned out that these whales were trapped in a bay and died suddenly in pursuit of small profits and wanted to eat sardines. People are the same sometimes. If you only pursue small goals, you will find that you just waste your youth and get nothing.

Pursuing small goals will only make you focus on immediate interests and be short-sighted. At that time, you will still get nothing and can't succeed.

Those who have not solved the problem of food and clothing are bent on solving it. Once the problem of food and clothing is solved, he will be satisfied and will never struggle again. Finally, looking back, everyone behind ran to the front. He was still just a nobody, still unknown and dispensable.

Each of us came into this world, hoping to do something to benefit mankind. We can't be satisfied with our present life. If you pursue big goals, you will not be satisfied with life, but will struggle and pursue more.

○ The goal cannot be infinite.

Thousands of people have a common sorrow: today is such a goal, tomorrow is such a goal, and the day after tomorrow is another goal. The goal is uncertain, and ultimately nothing is achieved.

The goal is uncertain, but there is actually no goal. If they have a goal, it can only be called a small plan. There was a young man who walked askew every time he plowed in the field because he was inexperienced. His father told him, "You should choose a goal and walk towards it so that it won't be crooked." So, this time he aimed at another cow in the distance. He thinks there should be no problem, but the cultivated cattle are still not straight. At this time, his father added: "This is the first time you lack a goal, so you are not straight. The second mistake is the movement of the target, of course, there will be mistakes, so you have to find a fixed target and look at it. " The third time, he chose a distant tree as the target, and sure enough, the plowed field was straight.

Fuzzy goals are actually half-hearted, which will not only consume energy, but also waste youth, and then draw water with a sieve. A female college student asked me for advice and told me her troubles. She was admitted to Huaqiao University for the first time. Although the school is good, she is not interested in her major. In less than a year, she dropped out of school. She wants to have a second interview and then take the Tsinghua exam. The second time, although she was admitted to the university. It's not Tsinghua, it's an ordinary university. Although this major is correct, she thinks this school is not famous, which is too bad. She wants to drop out of school and take the exam again. When her mother found out, she would never let her drop out of school. So, she felt distressed.

The correct way is that you must set a fixed goal, which must be clear and practical, not illusory. Once the goal is set, we must put it into action and pursue it persistently. Ma, a famous track and field coach in China, believes that setting lofty and clear goals is the prerequisite for success. Ma is a PE teacher, but he is always concerned about the sports situation in China. In 1970s, due to the interference of various factors, the sports level of China was generally backward in the world. Seeing that in major international track and field competitions, China often can't even rank, he thought: On the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, the volunteers can beat the traitors, but why can't they beat them on the playground? He secretly vowed that he must cultivate athletes who can win the world championship! The horse has set his own goal. 1992 World Athletics Championships was held in Stugas, and "Ma Jiajun" won three gold medals in women's middle and long distance running, which shocked the whole international track and field community. At the 7th National Games held in 1993, the main force Wang shortened the world record of10000m by nearly 42 seconds, while Qu broke the world record of 3000m. Ma Renjun is successful.

The goal cannot be infinite. Everyone can't be half-hearted when facing the goal. Who is the Dance Academy? Life will play games with you, and then you will only end up as a boss.
