Why should you set a goal? On average, kids who set goals sell more than kids who don't set goals. They sell twice as much popcorn! Goals help you work toward something and they help you realize that you are really making progress on your sale.
A goal can be in dollars, like "I want to sell $1,000 of popcorn this year." A goal can be in hours, like "I want to spend 10 hours selling door-to-door and 10 hours at Show & Sells." A goal can be the number of people you ask, like "I want to ask 20 people besides my family to buy popcorn." You can do a goal with practically anything. The only thing that matters is that you feel that it is important to you.
Go set a goal now and good luck selling!

Great Point! Breaking the goal into smaller goals makes to goal more believable in the mind's eye thus more obtainable.
