Locke's law: determine the goal that can be achieved by jumping and focus on action.
This goal should be both future-oriented and challenging. Everyone who plays basketball knows that the height of the basket can only be achieved by jumping, and it can definitely be achieved by jumping hard. The height of the basket is reasonable, which will not make you score easily, nor will it make you never score. This height requires you to score hard. If the height of this basket is 10 meter, who will play basketball? Basketball itself is meaningless. If the height of this basket is only 1 m, then there is no point in scoring. Therefore, setting goals is like a basket, which needs a jump to complete.
The founder of the University of Illinois explained Locke's law well. The founder of the University of Illinois was appreciated by the American automobile giant Ford when he was young. Ford wants to help him realize his dream. Ford, an industrial giant, was startled when he first heard the dream of the founder of the University of Illinois. It turns out that his dream is to earn $654.38+000 billion. At that time, 100 billion dollars was 100 times of all the assets of American automobile giant Ford. This goal is so big that Ford can't help asking, "What do you need so much money for?" The founder of the University of Illinois hesitated and said, "I don't know what I need so much money for, but I think that is success. I want to be a successful person. " Ford smiled and said, "Don't think about it yet, think about something practical." Five years later, the founder of the University of Illinois came to Ford and said that he would run a university with a total cost of $200,000 and a deficit of $654.38 million+10,000. I hope Ford can help him. Ford thought this goal was feasible and decided to help him achieve it. Eight years later, he successfully founded the University of Illinois.
Therefore, if a person's goal is too big, it sounds fake and impossible, then this goal can only be empty talk and will not be realized one day.
According to your own situation, set a goal that you can jump and achieve. First of all, we should have a clear understanding of ourselves, including contacts, resources and so on. Some people are mediocre because they have no goals; Some people always fail because their goals are too big and unrealistic.
Therefore, if you want to succeed, you must set a goal that you can achieve by jumping.
