			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-787 alignright" title="shot_on_target" src="http://simonpreacher.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/shot_on_target.jpg" alt="shot on target Target Shooting Success" width="300" height="200" />When a hunter is shooting in the dark, they are doing so hoping they might hit something. They don&#8217;t have their shot on target, they are simply praying that by some chance, they might be able to catch their prey. (That is a surefire way of failing!) The probability of catching something in such a case is very low. Hunters who shoot in the dark are not successful hunters. <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>You have got to know where your prey is and moreover, you&#8217;ve got to have your shot on target; that&#8217;s the only way you can catch your prey and succeed in your endeavors. Shooting in the dark is a guess game and it don&#8217;t work!<br />
</em></span><br />
This is one of the major problem with so many people who are striving to become successful. They don&#8217;t plan anything, they don&#8217;t write their goals down, they want to get somewhere they have never been before without a map. That&#8217;s insane and the probability of getting lost is high.</p>
<p><strong>If you want to succeed in life, you got to have a map which will show you where you are going. Write your goals down don&#8217;t ever think you can just work it all out from your head.</strong> If not you will get distracted by all sorts of things and you won&#8217;t remember what your mission for the day was and this will lead you to more failure. Not writing your goals down, hoping to succeed in this life its like throwing your arrows in the dark. Don&#8217;t do such thing! Goals are steps you need to take to get you to your intended destination.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Don&#8217;t woke up each day hoping that you might do something that is going to make you a success; you have got to research, plan, have clear goals and take action. My simple formula is know what you want, know how you want to get there and let nothing stand in your way. Simple as that! Success is not a random game!</strong></p></blockquote>
