For example, Jack Welch decided, shortly after graduating from college, that one day he wanted to be the CEO of General Electric (he achieved this goal 20 years after setting it!). Bernie Carlson, who anchored CNN’s news desk for 20 years, decided at the age of 13 that he wanted to be a network news anchor. Jerry Garcia, the lead guitarist and vocalist of The Grateful Dead, said he knew as a youngster he wanted to head a rock band. And Scott Adams, the successful “Dilbert” cartoonist, claims to have envisioned himself as the world’s greatest cartoonist. (P2)
Contrast these goal setters with those who are unable or unwilling to set goals and achieve them. Consider people you know who seem to set goals frequently but never attain them. Are they realistic about what they can achieve? Do they have the required resources to attain their goals (e.g., time, money, or support from others)? Do they have the necessary capabilities, training, and education? Chances are they may not have one or more of these resources that are so important to success. (P3)
