		<description>Fantastic Advice, Sharon!

There are a few methods for setting goals and S.M.A.R.T. is one of the more popular. I think the important thing to remember with all goal setting is that no matter how high you aim, you must break your process down into small steps. (&lt;a href="http://bloggingexperiment.com/archives/aim-high-shoot-low.php" rel="nofollow"&gt;Aim High; Shoot Low&lt;/a&gt;)</description>

		<description>Nice post. Coincidentally, I just made a post on my blog that parodies the topic of blog goals and takes the position that all they will do is crush your soul.

Honestly, though, goals are useful for pretty much everything - not just blogging. 

I especially liked your point on when to post your best so that they get Dugg and Stumbled. I'm going to have to keep that in mind next time I write something that can go viral.</description>

		<description>Excellent advice. I've been struggling with how to define and pursue goals for my various blogs for a while now, only to come up with vague things like "get more traffic". I love the way you explain to break such a large goal down into something more concrete, then plot out the various steps needed to get there.

Thank you!</description>

		<description>I agree with you. We are alos using that strategy in our planning conference. You really cannot measure a success with unrealistic goals.</description>

		<description>By "don't fly very fly high" i meant that we should stay rooted to the basics..because most of the webmasters forget their basic stuffs when they taste some success..

Aiming high is too important..

Remember: Aim for the sky, even if you don't reach there you will still be counted among the stars. :)</description>

		<description>Glad you've found it useful, Futon-Matt.

@ Rakesh: aiming high is fine, but you've got to get the basics right to have the right foundation to build on.</description>
