PART B_2

According to a study, people who write down their goals achieve more than those who just think about what they want to accomplish in life. The study is backed up by the phrase “A goal without a plan is simply a wish” by demonstrating that writing down goals makes them more realistic.

Furthermore, a report published in October 2018 shows that 83% of the population has no goals, 14% have a plan but no goals, and 3% have goals written down. As per the study, those who set goals are ten times more likely to succeed than those who do not. The 3% of people who set written goals are three times more likely to achieve them than the 14% who set unwritten goals. In a nutshell, you will be more successful if you write down your goals.

The goal does not need to be ambitious; even something small is fine. If you have a goal in mind, write it down; this will be your first step toward achieving it.
