“Never make a personal goal dependant on the action or actions of a SPECIFIC individual or individuals…except yourself of course. You can create a goal to sell 14 widgets this week and achieve your goal by making as many sales calls as necessary. However, if you create a goal to sell 14 widgets this week to 14 specific individuals, you may very well fail to accomplish the goal. You cannot now, nor will you ever, be able to control the actions of other people. Never, ever create a personal goal that is dependent on another’s action. If the action or behavior of other specific individuals is necessary, you have an OBJECTIVE, not a GOAL. The successful achievement of all of your personal goals MUST be entirely under your control. This way, every goal that you create is 100% achievable.“ —Paul Sutherland
