Set and Achieve High Goals for Success in 2010
Successful people commit to taking personal responsibility for creating the career and life success they want and deserve. Setting and achieving high goals is one way of demonstrating your commitment to your success. Your 2010 -- and any year for that matter -- success begins with your goals. Make sure they are S.M.A.R.T. (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time Bound). You should be able to clearly articulate three things about each of your goals -- 1) What you plan to achieve; 2) Why you want to achieve it; and 3) How you plan on achieving it.

DUMB Goals
In 1981, G.T. Doran coined the term SMART Goals. Smart stood for, Specific, Measurable, Assignable, Realistic, and Time Bound. This article is about my set of DUMB goals that could be added. A lot has changed in 30 years, and we live in a different world. For example, 30 years ago we communicated mostly by using our mouth and ears, rather than our thumb and eyes. In 1981, the word "green " was a color, rather than a corporate mandate. Back then, families actually sat at the dinner table together with no cell phones.

Struggle If You Must During Career Transition, But Why Should You?
To advance forward is to advance to new perspectives by developing new competencies in both soft and hard skills. What is meant by soft and hard skills? I see the hard skills as those that are produced. They are measurable, quantifiable and can be observed outside of self. They have empirical evidence. For example, when a client of mine has a goal to make a career transition into another field of interest and she/he has succeeded, it is obvious to everyone who is familiar with him/her. It is measurable in that the client did break away from one profession and moved into another, which could be seen by others.
