Goals & Planning
Every so often I take the time to review and update my goals. Things have been somewhat up in the air for us of late and I was starting to feel rather ... well. like I didn't really know where I was going or why.
So the other day I took several hours and did a goals review and update. It's amazing how much of a difference it makes when you get clear about where you want to go and why.
You can find ideas from lots of sources, but when it comes to goals most programs will suggest taking a look at a number of life categories. Here's a list of some to consider.
Then in each of those areas think about what it is you really want. Write that down. Once you've completed that, choose the top 3-5 at most - the ones that are most important to you at this time in your life. Now go into deeper detail about what you want in those areas.
From there, turn those wants and desires into specific goals.
