27 Keynotes on Reaching Your Goals

This collection of keynotes will set you up for reaching your goals in the upcoming new year. Different strategies for achieving your goals are preached by a variety of people but this collection aims to steer you in the direction of success.

A good place to start, according to Michael Porter, is setting the right goal. He believes that far too many set out with a misguided goal. In order to create an effective strategy for achieving goals, it is important to have the right one in the first place.

Tony Fadell believes that setting "near-term" goals plays a huge role in being successful. While setting long-term goals is important, "near-term" goals keep things in check and ensure that motivation is maintained, either individually or on a team.

The speech by Sam Silverstein suggests that accountability is an important component of reaching goals. When someone is accountable for their goals -- either to a friend, family member or co-worker -- the stakes to achieve them is much higher and acts as an effective motivating force.

Whatever you hope to achieve in the new year, these speeches on reaching your goals will play an instrumental role in helping you get there.
