I've recently learned about a goal-setting tool that I've used without realizing it. 
We all know that if we aim for nothing we will usually hit it.
* But if we only aim low, we will probably not hit high, at least not  consistently.
* If we aim too high, and can't reach it, we might get discouraged and simply quit.
* But, if we set a low bar AND a high bar, we will gradually be able to accomplish more on a consistent basis and our low bar will effortlessly rise!
