Why do people give up on goals?

Why do people give up on goals?

Goal setting, especially the proper tools to structure, is crucial for long-term achievement. The usual problem, however, is not setting goals but completing them.

While a vision involves creativity and foresight, goals require strategy and dedication.

An extensive study on goal setting by Marshall Goldsmith and Laurence Lyons helps us understand an essential component: Why people give up on goals. Six of the most important reasons people give up on goals;

• Ownership. Someone must “buy in” to their goals and take ownership. This shifts the ownership and initiative to an internal point of reference. Then effectiveness and mastery can result.

• Time. Goal setters tend to underestimate the time it will take to complete the task (an “optimism bias”), leading to giving up.

• Difficulty. The optimism bias equally applies to difficulty as well as time.

• Distractions. People tend to underestimate the distractions and competing goals.

• Rewards. Disappointment sets in when achievement of a goal doesn’t
translate into other goals or to the desired happiness.

• Maintenance. Maintaining changed behavior is difficult, and there is always the pull of the old and the fear of the new.

built-in photo mail

Windows Live Mail is a great program for accessing Windows Live Hotmail, Windows Live Calendar, and Windows Live Contacts—and you can even access previously synchronized e-mail, calendar, and contact information when you’re offl ine. POP and IMAP support makes it easy to access and manage thirdparty e-mail services such as Yahoo!, Gmail, and AOL. And, with built-in photo mail, you can send photos to friends without overloading their Inboxes with large attachments. Instead, they’ll receive light, embedded thumbnail images, along with links to easily download the full-resolution versions or to see the images played as a slideshow.

create a dynamic avatar

Windows Live Messenger makes it effortless to connect to your favorite people or groups, chat via IM, video or voice, play games, share photos and monitor what’s new with your circle of friends. The latest release of Messenger doesn’t just feature a brand new look and feel—it’s also designed so that you can personalize nearly everything. For instance, you can change your profi le picture, background scene, and status messages whenever you like, create a dynamic avatar, and record a short video. You can even designate your own signature sound that contacts hear when you start a conversation and assign unique sounds to the people in your contact list. For more fun, create multiple display pictures, or moods, and alter what your contacts see by the emoticons you use in your conversations. And in response to one of the most common customer requests, you can now more safely include hyperlinks in your personal status message.

Wireless LAN feature

Having your PC go into Sleep state when idle is a good way to conserve power. But what if you need to access your PC remotely? In Windows Vista, you can wake another PC in Sleep state only if it has a wired network connection. In Windows 7, you can use the Wake on Wireless LAN feature to wake the PC over a wireless network connection. Let’s say you’re using your laptop in the bedroom and want to see a photo on the PC in the kitchen. Because both are connected to your home network, it doesn’t matter if the
kitchen PC is in Sleep state, because you can use Wake on Wireless LAN and view the photo. Similarly, the IT administrator in your company can wake up wirelessly connected PCs to apply software updates or perform other maintenance—and save on power costs too.
