Tom Daley & Clear Goals



Watching Tom Daley on the Jonathan Ross Show last week highlighted the importance of clarifying your goals.

With his Olympic bronze medal in hand he told of a conversation he had with his father when he was nine. 

At the time London had been put forward to host the Olympics in 2012 but hadn’t won the bid yet. Tom’s father who I gather from the interview was his coach told Tom if the Olympics were in London and he trained hard he could be there participating too.

With this thought in mind at nine years old Tom Daley drew this picture in his diary under the title My Ambition.



My point is having a clear and specific goal means you are much more likely to achieve it.

Furthermore research states by writing it down you are far more likely to succeed. 

Even better still by taking the time to draw a picture you can add further clarity and create a clearer vision of your goal. 

By engaging in the process this way you can make your ambition a reality.
