Connected to this- making them specific. In other words, it's not I'm going to improve sales pretty soon, or very quickly, but rather- I'm going to increase sales 5 percent by December 31, 2008. Specific lifeline as well as specific project.
加上日期，使它们细化，换言之，不是说我马上，或者很快就会提升销量，而是我会在2008年12月31日前使销量增加5%。具体的最早期限，以及具体的目标。
Also, let's say that I want to become fit. It's not just the generic "I want to become fitter"; it's rather "I'm going to run 5 miles, 4 times a week by October 15, 2008. " Concrete. Specific.
同样，比如说我想健身，不是一般的“我想要更苗条健康”；而是“我要在2008年10月15日前每周跑四次步，每次5英里”明确，具体的目标。
Remember what we talked about- the most important thing about goals is not achieving those goals It's not that is what would make us happy or sad if we do or don't achieve them. The key is to energize us, to motivate us, to liberate us, to contribute as a means toward the end- the end being the journey. The goals that facilitate the journey best or goals that we actually have- not all goals, but some goals- 50 percent of achieving.
我们讲过：制定目标最重要的不是在于完成这些目标，不是说我们会因为完成就感到高兴或者没完成就悲伤，其关键在于给予我们能量，给予我们动力，使我们自由，是通往最终目的的一种方式，而最终目的是过程本身。是那些最有助于这个过程的目标或者，我们所拥有的不是所有，但一部分，完成了一半的目标。
It's the goals such as Kennedy set in 1962, "we will reach the moon by the end of the decade," at the time when the metal that was necessary to withstand the heat of getting out of the space and coming back to earth was not even invented.
就像肯尼迪在1962年提出的目标“我们要在这十年中登上月球”而那时能够忍受飞到外太空以及回到地球所产生的高温的金属都还没发明出来。
