5. JanuaryJune 2013Page 5 EDITORIALS Enthusiasm, hard work, and
courage are the active ingredient in lasting commitments. Everyone
of us has goals whether personal or professional or combination of
those. Reachable goals are specific and simple, no one can muster
the enthusi- asm, hard work and courage to reach a goal they don't
really care about. A reachable goal is only you really, really,
really want. It's something that will change your life, enhance
your health and make you proud. Your brain can help you accomplish
almost anything if it knows precisely you are aiming for. To get
started, set the a goal and write it down. Whether the goal, the
important thing is that you set it , so you got some- thing for
which to aim- and that you write down. There is something magical
about writing thing down. So set a goal and write it down. When you
reach that goal, set another and write that down. You'll be off and
running. Why might writing down our goals or even daily agenda is
so effective in strengthening our commitments, even when the
content of what we write stays private? Writing down and describing
in details is active commit- ment to be used to great effect
thorough our life daily, weekly, monthly, annually. Reachable goals
are measurable outcome, and keeps you going all day long, because
it is important, held values and create more excitement when you
reaching for more goals. Z Alex Dylag Manager Stores SET A GOAL AND
