About this book
Life moves in seasons, and every season carries the potential for growth—but only if we know how to set and pursue the right goals. In The Principles of Goal Setting, Pastor Tope AbimbolaOluwa unpacks a biblically grounded framework for turning vision into achievement. Using Scripture as both foundation and case study, the book explores how God Himself modeled goal-setting through creation—beginning with illumination before action, assessment after completion, and purpose behind every step. Readers will journey through familiar biblical narratives seen in a new light: the ambition behind the Tower of Babel, the seven years of dedication in Jacob's pursuit of Rachel, Gideon's relentless pursuit despite exhaustion, and Jesus' teaching on counting the cost before building a tower. Structured across eight chapters, the book walks readers through: Understanding what a goal truly is—and how it differs from a vision Recognizing God as the ultimate goal-setter The steps required to set and assess achievable goals The price and passion required to see a goal through to completion How to recognize when you're truly pursuing your goal, even amid opposition and seasons of quiet preparation The four keys to implementation: boldness, confidence, adventurous faith, and unwavering trust Practical, pastoral, and rooted in Scripture, this book is written for believers who are ready to stop remaining stagnant and start pursuing the plans God has placed in their hearts—systematically, faithfully, and to completion.
