The document discusses the importance of financial planning and goal setting. It states that the starting point for achieving any goal is to have a plan for it. When a goal is planned out in a specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound manner it becomes a "SMART" goal. Examples are given of vague goals versus SMART goals. The document emphasizes that many goals are delayed or not fulfilled because people only wishfully think about goals rather than making definite plans to achieve them. Financial planning tools like savings ratios, expense tracking and budgeting are presented as ways to help people set and achieve financial goals in a planned manner.

Have you ever wondered why
many of our goals are delayed
or worse not fulfilled?
Well, simply because we are
wishful about our goals and we
have no definite PLAN to
achieve these cherished goals.
