Help my Google-fu

[yesthattom]

In the last year (maybe last 6 months) there was a study that found that people that don't set goals are less successful than people that do set goals. It got a lot of press because people were saying, "Duh! They got a grant for that? How about a grant to find out if water is wet?"

I'm looking for references to the article/study/paper. This is for something I'm writing about goal setting, actually, which I feel is a very important part of time management.

What makes this a challange is that Googling for "study" or "goals" or "success" results in a million hits related to other things.

Thanks,
Tom

Tom, I think you've got one too many "don'ts" in that sentence. Which should go?

best,

Joel. Or not.
