Vijai's Goals

“First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom, money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end.” - Aristotle

Without a target, where do you focus and aim your arrow. Always SET Goals and Objectives first, whether short or long term. Then work on each one of them according to your priorities.

Get, Set and Go. Do not just get to the action. An Action without proper goals and plan is prone to fail.

One more thing, as many know I always like to walk my talk. To prove it again, I have published my Financial statement with Asset, Liabilities and Networth. Check it out, how its aligned with my goals.
