Looking back into my post, I wonder.
I've been using goal-setting on and off - this thread came as a result of one of my off months. Thruth be told, everytime I used goal-setting and actually wrote stuff down, I got more busy with planning than with acting. Then I'd throw it all out the window and experience a desorganized period of productivity.
Yet, some time ago I went through a experience that just made me realize that I MUST step up my game. Yet, since the improvement I saw as ABSOLUTELY FUNDAMENTAL was a damn complex thing, encompassing different areas and aspects of my mife, I found myself resorting to goal-setting again. This time, it seems to be working. Why? As Kaspian said, setting goal with a burning purpose is different than just 'because it sounds good.' I wouldn't call my motivation a purpose, but it sure as hell is a damn kick-in-the-butt to get to work. So far, so good.
