One of my favorite things to do as a Life Coach is helping clients to set and achieve their goals. It's thrilling to see them grow spiritually and personally and reach the heights they longed for. Goals are vital to our growth and well-being. Without goals, you'll never get anywhere in life. That applies to your work, health, relationships, and even your faith. Goals motivate us and move us forward. Sadly, some people set goals that are too broad or too vague and that are not at all useful. To achieve your hopes and dreams, you need SMART goals.
