Goals, Goal Setting
and Achievement Training Videos and DVDs
Goals and goal setting is the major focus of achievement. Goal setting DVDs are an important part of learning: vision, planning, and timing are all part of the process. While you can be successful without setting goals, the odds are more in your favor if you use goals in a combination of short-term goals, mid-term goals and long range goals. With goals filling your needs and step by step planning, success and achievement can be destinations along your life's journey both personally and on the job. Our goal setting achievement training DVDs and videos can help almost any organization improve their productivity.

Do Your Best is a set of activities that demonstrates the key principles of setting direction in an organization, group, or team. The short, five-to-fifteen minute activities provide an active, stimulating means of uncovering the crucial principles of setting mission, vision, and goals.
Overview
Do Your Best contains three modules - one for mission, one for vision, and one for goal setting. Each module contains six to seven activities in which participants use acrylic blocks to build walls. The facilitator can use any or all of the activities depending on time constraints and the particular needs for the training group. Each activity demonstrates a different direction-setting principle and can be run independently of the other activities. Each module, taken as a whole, builds to the point of having participants craft their own direction piece (vision, mission, or set of goals).
Development
The original Do Your Best exercise was developed in 1982 by Dr. Rollin Glaser as an experiential means of teaching well-researched goal-setting principles. The intent was to give participants a hands-on experience that was involving and fun yet demonstrated how goals should be set. The title Do Your Best was chosen as a tongue-in-cheek reminder of how not to set goals.
Over time, as direction setting became a major focus for organizations, it occurred to us that Do Your Best needed to be expanded and updated to include not just goal setting but the entire direction-setting process. After all, goals set in isolation, without the direction provided by missions and visions, could lead an organization or group astray.
The same involving aspects of Do Your Best that make it appropriate for teaching goal setting make it appropriate for teaching mission and vision construction. We found, as did others, that the principles of direction setting were not always exciting or easy to convey to participants. As Albrecht (1994) points out, crafting mission, vision, and goals can be frustrating, difficult, and dry. Our attempts to use standard lecture techniques were met with disengagement and sometimes confusion. We felt that Do Your Best would make the entire direction-setting process entertaining and informative because participants would discover the principles through participation in activities rather than through lecture.
Using acrylic blocks from the original Do Your Best, we developed brief wall-building activities, each of which demonstrated one direction-setting principle. For each module, we created a set of activities that could be used together or separately.
Do Your Best is composed of three modules:
Mission Module: Contains five activities, each demonstrating one of the five mission principles, plus one final activity that involves the group writing its own mission.
Vision Module: Contains five activities, each demonstrating one of the five vision principles, plus one final activity that involves the group writing its own vision.
Goal Setting Module: Contains six activities, each demonstrating one of the six goal-setting principles, plus one final activity that involves the group setting its own goals.

A convenient 3-ring binder/tote
Reproducible participant materials for vision, mission, and goal-setting sections

Get what you want, when you want it with this exciting approach to goal setting.
Reaching your goals can be extremely difficult. Even more difficult may be determining what your goals really should be. To help you and your company learn to set and then reach your goals, JWA/Video has produced How To Set And Really Achieve Your Goals, with noted lecturer and trainer Jeff Blackman.
Nearly all companies and individuals say goals are important. Whether they are sales goals, production goals, personal finance goals, or weight loss goals they are deemed important. Yet many times we set our goals without much real thought. "Our new sales goal is to increase last year's sales by 10%." Why? Maybe it should be 20%. But without any real thought no one is really sure.
In this new video training program you'll learn:
Why it's important to set accurate goals
How to set goals so they mean something
The GRASP IT goals achievement system
Why planning is critical to both your business and personal life
The six key elements to change
"Decide upon your goals and then set your mind, body and world into motion. As a worthwhile being, you deserve success. Demand it. Require it. Insist upon it," says Blackman.
Divided into segments, this video is perfect for group training or may be used for individual instruction.
This integrated how-to training program comes with a video, audiocassette and goals-setting booklet. It is a must for any individual and organization.
