I already know my goals. 

I don't want to bother to write them.

That is logical.  People who know their goals will be focused on action, on following the plan that they figured out when they chose the goals.  Such people will be too busy working on their goals to spend time on making lists.

There is a time for everything. 
A time to plan.  A time to act. 
A time to know what time it is.

Besides, if you already know where you are going, you don’t need to remind yourself about it.  You won’t need to market these goals to other parts of your head.  Your whole head has already bought into it.  You are already hunting those targets. 

You already know that those goals will work together.  They won’t conflict.  You won’t have to pick up on one and leave the other behind.  You won’t ever have to make up your mind.

You already know you've got what it takes to hit these targets.  You've already got a plan that will get you there.

Or if you haven't got a plan, you must be ready to make one. You could search the web for "goal setting" for specific help on specific goals.

Or maybe you are not ready to make plans.  So you aren’t ready to take on those goals.   You may like to call them goals, but you have loaded them into your brain as wants.  You feel that you are ready to work for them, but you don’t know what you need to do. 

If you don't know what you need to do,
your goal is to figure out what you need to do.

Here’s what to do:  Pick your most important goal.  Go to the Plan Clipit.  Follow the instructions.
