Goals doesn't make millionaires, identities do.
Most millionaires make daily goals, but guess what, so does my middle age slowlane neighbor aswell. And I I don't even have to make such an extreme comparison for it to be clear: Me and one of my friends sets daily goals everyday, we started at the same time and we both set practically identical goals. So why has he made little to none progress, and I am a few months ago from releasing a business? How can I be much stronger than him, when we both started of physically simmilar?
It's NOT about the goals, it's about the person you must be to achieve those goals.Always when I'm at a crossroad. I ask myself: "What would the best version of myself do?"
Then I do what the best version of myself would do. The definition of Identity is Repeated beingness.
Repeated beingness:
What we chose to do is what we become. So if at every moment you ask yourself: "What would a my inspiration do" or "What would the best version of myself do?" etc.
Because when you start doing what the best version of yourself would do, you will become that version.
At every crossroad, do what your inspiration or best version of yourself would do. If you do what a billionaire would do, you will become a billionaire!
I will stop setting daily goals because I have reached a stage where I know what I need to do, and I am doing it eitherway. I know what works needs to be done on my business, what muscle group I need to work out today, what book I need to read today and then I do that. And thanks to that, I am progressing very fast.MOST OF US KNOW WHAT WE NEED TO DO, WE JUST DON'T DO IT.
I want you to write that on a paper, underscore it and circle it. It's not the lack of direction that causes people to fail, but lack of action. Overweight people know that they need to exercise, they just don't do it. Slowlaners know that they work deadend jobs, they just chose to remain doing so because that is a belief that has been built my society for them, and questioning things is scary because it's uncharted territory and who knows what might happen?You want to get rich? -> Read books, improve a skill, improve critical thinking so you can think for yourself and ofc lastly and MOST obvious: START A BUSINESS! Your first one dosen't have to succeed and it will most likely NOT. So get the experience.
Want to get V-taper? -> Start working out, look up youtube videos, read, learn.
Want to become handsome -> Start looksmaxing and you might not even know what that is, so LOOK IT UP. LEARN
This could go on forever.
Clarifictaion: Ofc you can do daily goals, but they are not needed. In the beggining of your journey they can be very useful to build habits, and building your character. But after that they are time consumers.

Put yourself out there.
Take action.
Edit: Yearly goals, 5 year goals etc is really good, but trust me I'm speaking from experience. Setting goals everyday won't help you. I have done that for 200+ days and it has not helped me. It consumes time. Like come on, you know what you need to do. Work, work and finally: Work. The title is clickbait, ofc you should set long term goals, but you don't need to write daily goals.
