I always strive towards a productive, healthy and happy life.
I feel as if all of us at some point become complacent in our lives from time to time. We get into a comfortable pattern and stick with it, instead of branching out. I am always yearning to learn, grow and experience more. This can be in the tiniest of ways. For example, I listen to a lot of podcasts on health as well as read books on the subjects that interest me. I also try to mix up my schedule from time to time just so I don't become stuck on the same routine. Usually when we're stuck on the same schedule we begin just moving through the motions without really thinking about them or being aware of them...and then BAM our day is done.
Just recently I sat down and sat with my thoughts. I put my electronics away and turned my phone on silent. With this time I listed a bunch of goals and things that I want to accomplish. I included:
- Career goals
- Relationship goals
- Immediate goals
- Long term goals
The great thing about goals is that you can always deviate away from them, change them or add on to them. I don't think they have to be set in stone or necessarily achieved exactly the way you initially wrote it down. Goals for me are things that I currently am desiring to achieve as well as something to give me direction and focus in life.
Wherever you are in your life, setting goals can help you become more focused on your future as well as today.
