Frontline Fellowship Strategy For Living
A PURPOSE is an aim or direction - something which we want to achieve, but which is not necessarily measurable. E.g.: My purpose can be: to glorify God, but my goal can be: to read a chapter of the Bible each day. Good GOALS are:
- stated in terms of results. - achievable in a definite time. - definite as to what is expected. - practical and feasible. - precise in terms of quantities involved. - limited to one important statement.
My Greatest Purpose in life is to: _______________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ Five years from now I would like to be: __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ By the end of the year I intend to be: ____________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ This week I intend to: ________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________
If you fail to plan - you plan to fail.
