Do you often set goals that you never seem to reach? We're all filled with dreams and aspirations. Most long for fulfilling relationships. Some desire personal freedom. Others want fame and success.

Review

"This is NOT a read-through-in-a-few-days book. It is a plan. It is a workbook with assignments. Success comes through applying it piece by piece, bite by bite, not by osmosis."

- M. S. Hansen

"A high-value, low cost introduction to goal setting. It has a very solid, no-nonsense approach that is motivating and practical."

- Amazon Customer

"He doesn't talk about any magical, fantasy solutions that won't work, SJ keeps it real."

- Ralston Barrett

"Made me 'act' on my goals and taught me how to be disciplined and motivated."

- Ryry

I've Already Started Implementing This System

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2014

Verified Purchase

First, this isn't the first book by S.J. Scott that I've read nor will it be the last. S.J. is a master at distilling usable information into a form that readers can ingest and implement in as little as an hour.

I have to admit that I'm not that great at writing down goals or in assessing or revisiting them over a period of time. My basic approach is to make a vague goal and then start moving in that general direction. Using the information in this book, I actually got out a notebook and made a list of the things I want to accomplish over the next three months; then I started breaking down those goals into actionable steps I could take to achieve my goals by my deadline.Breaking down a big goal into small chunks is going to make my goals - not only business but health - so much easier to achieve.

If I had to pick out one thing I like best about this book (other than the great information) is that S.J. gave many real-world examples of each step. That alone made it easy for me to really understand how best to put my goals into action. One more thing - I also like the examples of taking a big goal and the steps needed to get from point A to point B and then Point C and so forth.

I'm a big fan of this author (love his book on walking 10,000 steps) - and wish I could have given the book even more than 5 stars. It really cleared away many of my goal-setting cobwebs.

How do you eat an elephant?

Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2014

Verified Purchase

Reading it while relocating to another state. Reading it to get my life back on track after two-years of chaos. Reading it to make a positive fresh start in our new location. Reading it section by section with notebook in hand chewing on every bite...like eating an elephant one bite at a time,"

S.J. Scott presents well know information step-by-step. His method makes reviewing things easier to swallow and actually apply it to my life. His suggestions are practical (aka doable). His visualization process has me swishing the ideas in my thoughts, formulating my dreams into step-by-step goals.

This is NOT a read-through-in-a-few-days book. It is a plan. It is a workbook with assignments. Success comes through applying it piece by piece, bite by bite, not by osmosis.

I'm excited to live my S.M.A.R.T. goals to become the best me.

Rehash of ideas by other, better writers

Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2016

Verified Purchase

I don't understand the high marks this little book has received. It is basically a book report telling of other, better volumes on achieving goals. One of the goals the writer, himself, states he has is to write a book a month. Apparently, in order to do so, he has elected to borrow heavily from David Allen, Stephen Covey and Ben Franklin. Not an original idea in here. And many of the links provided were already dead.

3 points for the things i didny didn't know before

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2020

I quite like the part of "review your goal on a daily basis".
Actually I don't even like goals. But now I think it's nice to have some to make the best out of life and my time.
Like any book, I learn something. And I like the length of this thin book, it's condensed and brief, not much repetition, which is great.

A waste of time and money if you have internet and 2 hours.

Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2018

Verified Purchase

It’s only 3 dollars but considering the value of it, it’s expensive. The content is just a bunch of methods, tools and self-help concepts and ideas put together with a minimum level of coherence. Links to apps, links to books,... This guy makes more money refering others than with his own book. If you don’t like to browse the web and check out yourself what is there on goals setting, you can buy this book. Same thing.

Focus on Performance...the How instead of the What

Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2017

Verified Purchase

I love it...been using SMART objectives for years at work. This book provides a new perspective unlike the business based and academic approaches: set performance based short term objectives to reach long term outcomes (sustainable life changing results) with an emphasis on HOW you're getting there i.e. THEJOURNEY itself. Only downfall...there's a LOT of sub-steps but, there are many options and resources. I liked the format, the tone, and have referred this resource to friends.

A very good little book

Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2017

Very practical, clear language, and motivational! The book provides a very clear path to set up goals and it seems like a very doable system, not the convoluted program that others offer. It is a very fast read.

SMART targets are the way forward

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 27, 2014

Verified Purchase

I have purchased a couple of other books from this author and have found his style both easy to read and easy to understand. He is clear and concise with no unnecessary fluff.

Goal setting is a particularly troublesome area for me, so I have a tendency to buy books of this nature with the hope that one of them will take me by the hand and lead me to the promise land. When someone asks me to name my goals my mind goes blank and I can't think of anything. In this book there are numerous lists of possible goals in every area of your life, that will help to focus your mind and give you lots of ideas to think about.

SJ advises scheduling time for single actions. I found this particularly helpful as it prevents the overwhelm you can experience when doing something like goal setting. I was very interested to learn about the importance of keeping a "goal book" and this is something I will certainly be using in the future.

Lots of little gems - too numerous to mention - you really need to buy the book to find out more

Very useful condensed information

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 20, 2017

Very useful, but it was quite repetitive and need be a book at all. There were many allusions to Getting Things Done though, to the extent where I felt like I should have bought that instead.
