Goal setting software In search for the best goal setting systems

30Dec/08

The search begins

This is the start of a search for more.

Goal setting can give huge advantages and profits. There is but one enemy to goal setting - getting caught up.

If a system is not ideally designed and is even slightly slower than pen&paper - it failed. Miserably.

Unfortunately most systems that I have come across that promise miracles don't provide. I am here to help you make up your choice for the tool that is going to manage your life from now on. Heavy stuff.

For me - the ideal goal software (aka goal setting software) should:

  • be simple, compact, easy to use and fast - if you won't like it - you won't use it
  • remind you of good goal setting standards, with the possibility of tweaking those standards
  • have integration with (at least) Google Calendar
  • provide ways to measure goals
  • provide easy ways to produce accountability - both internal (self-evaluation via performance charts) and  external (sending out performance charts to your chosen coach)

These are the preliminary requirements - some may be added to the list, but the above are absolutely essential to me, as I will explain later on.

I'm going to test every piece of goal software there is available - and if nothing turns out the way I plan it to - make my own system.

Till later, stay passsionate
