How do you set project goals? How do you monitor the progress of goals?

I can set project goals in the following ways:

• Initially you have to identify the project purpose, for which purpose you are doing project. Understand the reason behind this.
• Understand the objective of the project. Objective can make project easy.
• Then identify the problems which are facing now and what kind of result you are expecting from this project.
• If you are making a project for the first time then it will be difficult for you to understand the concept.
• So, you have to break down these task into smaller part and think about the smaller goals then try to make it.
• Planning is the initial criteria for doing any project.
