Edwin Louis Cole Quotes

Set ambitious goals and don't be afraid to declare and aim for them. You need to know where you want to go in order to get there. It is important to have a destination in mind.

With a definite, step-by-step plan - ah, what a difference it makes! You cannot fail, because each step carries you along to the next, like a track.

Believe in and follow your dreams.

If you wish to fly to new heights, begin by setting your sights on a destination you can reach and then create a flight plan, a map, that will be your guide.

To accomplish great things we must first dream, then visualize, then plan... believe... act!

Your mind, while blessed with permanent memory, is cursed with lousy recall. Written goals provide clarity. By documenting your dreams, you must think about the process of achieving them.

The discipline of writing something down is the first step toward making it happen.

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.

Whatever you have as a dream, don't let anyone tell you it can't happen; give it your all.

I set goals for myself every three months. I write them down.

A goal without a plan is a wish. What's your plan? It's on you, because you have to do all the work.

Goals that are not written down and developed into plans are like bullets without powder in the cartridge. People with unwritten goals go through life shooting blanks.

A goal is created three times. First as a mental picture. Second, when written down to add clarity and dimension. And third, when you take action towards its achievement.

Decide what it is you want, write it down, review it constantly, and each day do something that moves you toward those goals.

You can not achieve an aim unless you have a method.

Until you commit your goals to paper, you have intentions that are seeds without soil.

Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement. Think on paper and write them down!

I'm a firm believer in goal setting. Step by step. I can't see any other way of accomplishing anything.

The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, learn about them, or even seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

Be clear about what you want to accomplish, and whether the circumstances surrounding you are actively helping you toward the goal.

Any system or blueprint for success is better than none at all. Think on paper.

Pick a goal, make a realistic plan to reach that goal, work through each step of the plan, and repeat.

If you don't clarify your goal, you'll never identify the best approach.

A goal that is not in writing is like cigarette smoke: It drifts away and disappears. It is vague and insubstantial. It has no force, effect, or power. But a written goal becomes something that you can see, touch, read, and modify if necessary.

You must see your goals clearly and specifically before you can set out for them. Hold them in your mind until they become second nature.
