So, I’ve just finished reading a productivity book which quoted an amazing study out of Harvard that began in 1964. They asked the graduating students who had written down their goals – only 5% had.
20 years later, they came back and checked how they went. An unbelievable 95% of the students who had written down their goals had achieved them, compared to only 5% of those who hadn’t written them down. Additionally, the 5% of students who had written down their goals had accumulated more wealth than the other 95% combined.
