There is a lot of misunderstanding and confusion about goal setting. People just don’t know why they set goals and what the benefits are. If they do it, it’s because someone told them it is important. The baggiest misconception that people often fall into when they set goals is that they think once they reach their goals they will be happier, that can’t be further from the truth! You will not be happier or less than who you are today because goals are attaining goals is about personal growth, it is not the direct cause or reason why you would be happy but it is the process that you go through to obtaining your goals is where you grow into a different person at the end of the goal.
