Proper goal setting greatly helps enhance performance and avoid disappointments. You can hardly set performance standards if you have not set your goals. For goals help define what you really want and how to achieve it.

Since there are long and short term goals, you should not only focus on the long term for you not to become overwhelmed. This makes short term goals equally important. In setting your goals, you need first to decide what you want – develop a vision; secondly, you must be committed, so your goals must be worth striving for; thirdly, you have to believe that the goals you set are achievable.
Goals that are too easy to achieve provide little motivation; but, on the other hand, unrealistically difficult goals can lead to loss of confidence and eventual rejection of the goal. The fourth pre-requisite for effective goal setting is to focus on one step at a time. In beginning the process of setting goals, it is important to be specific and realistic about what you are striving to achieve. Ditch those vague goals for more objective ones. Objective goals allow you to measure your progress and help you re-evaluate the goal if targets prove either too difficult or too easy.
All these will aid you towards higher standards of performance. In the planning stages of performance goal-setting you should think carefully about factors that may hinder your progress. For example, most people set goals that are too difficult rather than too easy, which commonly leads to the rejection of those goals. Once rejected, the goals no longer direct our efforts or our focus. It is also important to avoid setting too many goals. Instead, focus on one dream goal, perhaps two or three intermediate targets and two short-term goals.
That's enough to start with, but be sure to give your short-term goals the highest priority. Through achieving these you will naturally progress towards the intermediate targets.
