6No matter what stage of life you are at, and regardless of your personal circumstances or financial position, all of us have hopes and dreams for the future. Some people have small aspirations, while some of us like to dream big. But just how do we go about making these dreams reality? One solution is to create a life road map, where you set goals to guide you over the next few decades. Research has proven that individuals who set goals and targets for themselves - whether it be in their personal or professional lives - are likely to do better than those who are content to amble along not really planning for the future at all. When you apply goal setting to your finances or your business, the results are even more profound. Through this book you'll discover why goal setting is so important and how a little time and effort on your part to create a robust life plan can really help boost your finances and lay the foundations for exactly the kind of future you want for you, your family, and your business.
