Goals and Singles. How can goals help singles? Consider this: Many singles bemoan the fact that they are alone. The scenario goes something like this, "If I only had a mate/lover/spouse, I would have help doing ..." Yet, the best place to find a helping hand is at the end of your arm. You can depend on you! And the best way to lend yourself a hand is to set goals to follow. By the very act of setting a goal, you have expressed a belief in yourself and your chances for success. Establishing a goal is an act of confirmation. Any time you set a goal, you make an assumption that you can reach it. Setting that goal also implies a belief in its value. Most singles set some goals. At the very least they set goals for work. However, in order to achieve your long-term relationship dreams, you will have to set goals specifically for this area. You can not roll the dice and leave it chance. |

| It is also very helpful for a single person to create
a support system by involving others in your goals and accomplishments. Who are the people who help you, comfort you, encourage you, listen to your troubles, share fun with you, and help you celebrate life's successes. Identify those people in your life and share your goals with them, then involve them in developing your plans for that accomplishment.Are you using the same person for all your support? What would happen if you lost that person? You may be expecting too much from one person. Besides, life can become richer by sharing it with others. The best things about goals is that they push you into action and get you out into the world. And that is when happy accidents occur. When you go to the grocery store with your goals in mind, join a social organization or matchmaking service, or keep a promise to yourself related to your goal, something can and will happen to you. You'll get breaks you never planned for because you didn't know they existed.
