On Saturday, January 10th we will be hosting Joy of Goals at St. Luke’s Health Center (North Medical Office Building at 232 South Woods Mill Road in Chesterfield). 

I’m inviting you to JOIN US! 

Do you ever feel like just the process of setting goals is “work”?

Joy of Goals was created by myself (Karen Hoffman) and Julie Hood, because we felt that setting goals COULD be and SHOULD be fun!

Angela Lieb and I will facilitate a full day of celebrating what you accomplished in 2008.  Dream of what you want for 2009 and your life.   Set your goals.  Collaborate with others.

Our goal setting system has a special rating system woven into the goal setting process to help you determine how much you really wish to reach a goal.  We also provide processes to help you brainstorm HOW you can reach your goals and discover what might hold you back.

You’ll receive a comprehensive Joy of Goals binder and lunch from J Bucks Restaurant is included.

This is a day for you to work on what YOU want to manifest!!  Only those serious about making achievements should attend.

S.M.A.R.T. and FUN! Goal Setting

November 4, 2007 . by Angela

We have all taken some course or workshop that gave us the acronym “SMART” for goal setting -meaning that all goals should be Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Timely.  This has apparently worked for many goal-setting gurus.  I would like to add some other descriptors to goal setting and those words would be:  JOY…FUN….DREAM. 

The reason why so many people do NOT set goals is because it is not fun or it is draining.   According to SMART, they have to be realistic.  I would agree, but I also think that we need to dream in order to truly push ourselves.  Too much of the time, we are safe with our intentions - why not be bold with your intentions?  Why not push yourself.  Why not set 3 different levels of goals. 

Why not have 101 goals - goals that could be achieved in the next year along with some lifetime goals - who knows, sometimes just writing it down, makes it become a reality.  We can “dream” about making a $1M in our lifetime, but once we write it down, it commits us - it may not have to be this year or next, but why not have making a million dollars a goal?

If you are ready to set some goals for 2008 and would like to have fun doing it, I would strongly encourage you to come to the Joy of Goals Preview Workshop on November 30th in St. Louis.  Hope to see you there!

I Set Goals and Achieved in 2007

November 4, 2007 . by Julie Hood

“I had just left my job as a television news producer. I stood up at the 2007 Joy of Goals and told the room I would have a new career this year, and I would become a mother. Today, October 22nd, I am the owner of Legacies to Remember. My business produces video legacies. People tell their life stories on video and we illustrate those stories with music, pictures and video. More importantly, I am expecting my first child in five weeks.

There are 3 main things I took from this seminar. Say your goals out loud because they are more likely to happen. Network with as many people as you can to help make your dreams and goals come true. And finally, never miss a ‘Joy of Goals”’seminar. It was inspiring, thought provoking and a great kick in the butt to get out there and conquer the world!!!
