Setting Goals (Continuation of last weeks post)

Where do you want to be five years down the road?

We all ask ourselves this question at some point and time in our lives. It’s a very valid question that gets asked lots of time during our life. Most time we hear it even before we start school. As we age it becomes a more serious question. In fact, it always was, but at a younger age we don’t see just how important it is. We are busy being a child and that’s the way it needs to be. But, this question allows us to start to figure out how to set goals and find ways to reach them.

I heard of an exercise that may help people achieve finding this true desire. (This exercise was mentioned by the author of Write-A-Thon by Rochelle Melander) I hope each will take the time to do this and see if it works. Each day for a week write 20 minutes/day about where your life will be in five years if all goals and dreams have been met.

Doing this will allow us to find out what we need to accomplish to manage our time to achieve our goals, whether they be writing or whatever your dream is. One thing is clear to me, no matter what we dream of it requires managing your time. Setting goals allows you to do this.

Hope you all are finding this information helpful. There will be another post along this line next week.

Have a great week.
