Goals are necessary for anyone needing to get a job done. We set them all the time even when simply doing chores or planning a vacation. Many times goals are set by bosses for things they need to have done. Often people put the goal in their mind and then go about the day. However this can often lead to small and sometimes big things missed. There are many distractions during any given day which can have the goal be put aside.
One of the things that must be remembered is that until a goal is written down it is simply a thought. The brain is like a computer, and must be given a directive. If not an idea or thought about something simply bounces around for the most part. A goal needs to be specific on the target that is wanted. This allows the brain to focus.
Next the obstacles in the way should also be written down. Every obstacle that can be thought about. This computer of ours wants to solve problems. This simply could be communicating to the team. Though it doesn't look like an obstacle if they don' know what is wanted it quickly becomes one.
Finally the action items should be written down on what it will take to get all those obstacles out of the way. Doing this is moving towards the goals being completed and will achieve them every time. What has been done here is to define the destination, figure out what is in the way, and then take action to achieve. But it has been done in a focused way with a way to check progress.
