The GROW model utilizes a framework containing general questions to elicit\ngoals, obstacles and options.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have\ndeveloped some experience in goal-setting while using the GROW Model, you will\nknow how to modify the model to work best for you in your unique situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cWhat you get by achieving\nyour goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your\ngoals\u201d.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u2013&nbsp;Zig Ziglar<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If being an accounting and finance consultant is one of your goals, <a href=\"https:\/\/dlcinc.com\/how-do-i-apply\/\">click here<\/a> to find out how to apply to be a DLC consultant. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For many people, goal setting is simply the process of writing down what they&nbsp; want to achieve, then hopefully taking<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":554,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"post_function":[],"post_audience":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-553","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-article"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
