Concepts to Remember

1. Before you can deliver stellar results, you have to define meaningful goals.

2. Before you can define meaningful goals, you need to create your vision statement (what you see as possible for your future) and your mission statement (what you will do to achieve your vision).

3. Tie your vision, your mission, and your goals to your values, skills, and strengths.

4. Find and use the resources and support that you need in order to reach your goals and realize your vision.

5. Build a reserve into each goal—plan for more than you think you will really need.
