Goals

Today's devotional is from A Daily Taste of Proverbs

"A sluggard does not plow in season; so at harvest time he looks but finds nothing" - 20:4.

A goal is a vision of how it is to be before it exists—and the "it" represents any achievement one chooses to obtain. If you want to reach a goal, you must involve three things: dreaming, planning, and diligence. Dreaming will help you see it; planning will help you see it's possible; and diligence will keep you going until the dream becomes a reality.

If you break down in any one of those three, you won't see the end result of your goal. Which of those three do you need to engage today? Where is the breakdown in your attempts to set and achieve your goals? Read Habakkuk 2:1-4 to further understand both the proper way to set a goal and the steps required to achieve it.
