Why People Don't Set Goals

This is an interesting lesson learn from Zig Ziglar audio program about goals setting.

1. A lot of people do not set goals due to fear. Fear for not reaching the goals after setting them.
Fear of not being good enough to reach the goals.
F.E.A.R - False Evidence Appearing Real
Remember that fear mostly come from within us, from past events and experiences. They maybe just false evidence that appear to be real.

2. People do not set goals, because they do not know how to. Traditionally, goals setting is not something that is taught in the schools. So a lot of us after our education, got thrown into the society without the know how on how to set goals!

3. People are not sold on the importance of setting goals. If there are not goals, there are nothing to be achieved.
