What is goal setting?
In simple terms, goal setting is when, while setting a goal for ourselves, we perform a series of rituals (something like dancing with tambourines and drawing a circle of fire, only simpler) after which the goal seems to be fulfilled by itself.
The topic of goal setting has only become popular in the last few decades.
Just a few decades ago, our compatriots didn’t bother much with the topic of goal setting. Everything was much simpler for them. There is a goal, which means you need to work hard and painstakingly and everything will work out. But our generation has grown up more cunning and agile, and we are eager to find a magic pill to our goals.
That is why in recent years More and more often this topic excites people's minds. The acclaimed film “The Secret” played a particularly important role in the development of the topic of goal setting. Various courses on NLP, psychology, coaching, time management, which our people are increasingly attending, have also contributed to the topic of spreading goals.
And as a result, many myths and rumors began to form in the field of goal setting, which in fact are only partially true. It is these myths that we will talk about.
We will talk about three such myths.
Goal setting. Myth 1. About a universal model.
Many people believe that there is one single mega super secret universal model setting goals. Marketers often take advantage of this, declaring that their model is the best and the only one that works. And strangely enough, people behave.
There is no universal model. For the same person different situations the models will be different. About what is for two different people Goal setting methods in general may differ radically and it is not worth mentioning.
Goal setting. Myth 2. About the clarity of task setting.
There is a modern legend that a few decades ago, a study was conducted at Harvard in which a group of young graduates were asked how they saw their future in 20 years. As a result, about 80% said that their future was vague, another 12% had a rough idea of ​​where they wanted to live, what to do, how many children to have, and only the remaining 3% had their goals spelled out in detail on paper. These people knew exactly where they would work, what kind of car they would drive, and approximately how much they would earn.
After 20 years, these people were found and a new survey was conducted. It turned out that the second group (12%) earned on average 3 times more than the first (80%), and the third group (3%) earned 10 times more.
From this we can conclude that if you want your goals to be fulfilled, you must write them down in detail on paper.
This is partly true and there are people for whom it works. It is quite possible that you are one of these people and you should try this technique in practice. But at the same time, according to observations, there are a large number of people who, having written down their goals in detail, throw them away in a desk drawer and within a week will dream of something else.
Also, according to observations, people who are constantly striving forward improve their goals and change them from time to time.

What is common in all cases to this myth about goal setting is that it is best to write down your tasks, and try to do this in detail (but without fanaticism). And you also need to have plans for several years ahead.
These three rules should definitely be adopted by everyone. The rest is individual.

Goal setting. Myth 3. About visualization.
Many people believe that when setting a goal, you must visualize the image of the desired result. I've even met people who were trying to figure out how to properly visualize themselves in relation to a target from the outside or in the first person.
The visualization method spread especially strongly after the release of the film “The Secret.”
I have met many people for whom visualization works. But I’ve met just as many people for whom it doesn’t work. In the same way, I have met people who have no idea what it is, but achieve their goals with a bang.
The rational side of this myth is that you need to focus your attention on a goal in order to achieve it. Visualization can help in this regard. Although this can be easily done with a piece of paper and a pen.
