 Don't Bother November 23, 2008

This book will not show you how to set goals. It will show you how to make lists. If you know what you want and can get out your crayons and paper, you already have the skills explored in this waste of a book.
You might also note that the only five star review this book has received was written by one of the authors. Can we take that review seriously?
Very Disappointing June 11, 2008

I purchased this book with the hope that a detailed action plan would be included. This is nothing more than a glorified to do list. Don't waste your time or money on this one.
 Goal Setting (Work Smart Series) by Susan Wilson August 21, 2000
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
After reading Goal Setting, I used the valuable information to plan several different events. Susan's ideas help you stay focused on the process of planning, and executing any project. "Goal Setting" challenged me to produce a complete goal, manage time and energy, and delagating people in specific roles to achieve those goals. The achievement of those goals were very gratifying for myself, and all involved as the outcome was extremely positive. I also use this in my personal life to make the most of my time, improve personal goals,and make positive changes. The biggest lesson I have claimed from "Goal Setting" is the things I feared the most were the very things that kept me from growing into a person with high goals. I was just a someone with potential. Ms. Wilsons' book helped me step out and start achieving and setting goals to make me a stronger goal oriented person. I pick up this book often and review to make sure that I am still on track and making the most of my life!
