The 12 Golden Goals Part 1

The 12 GOLDEN GOALS to Go from Drifting in Life to SAILING

It’s easy to drift through life if we're not careful. Most people are drifting through life and don't even know it. How do I know? Because I was one of those people, and like they say "it takes one to know one." It took me a long time to figure this out, but I learned that if I want to have an amazing life then there are certain goals I MUST have. I call these my GOLDEN GOALS.
​
In our school education we talk about the importance of goals and goal setting, but usually, if not always, in the context of academic achievement and professional goals.  Those goals are fine enough in their respective arenas, but they miss the mark when it comes to living a HEALTHY, PROSPEROUS, and MEANINGFUL life.

If we don't have a definite life destination in mind that we are trying to reach (and by “definite life destination” I mean our personal versions of a most amazing life) then we are like driftwood floating without direction on the ocean’s surface, being tossed and blown in every which way by the fickle winds.

Think about it, WHERE are you going if you don't know where you’re going?
If, on the other hand, we know the coordinates of the island we are trying to get to (call this destination most amazing life) and we know from where we are starting, we become like a sail boat with a map and compass (rather than the driftwood). No longer are we at the mercy of the relentless and ever-changing winds, aimlessly adrift at sea getting tossed and blown every which way.  Now we can set our sail and use the winds to our aid and to our advantage. I've found that the best destination is the one we envision for ourselves where we are happy and have come truly alive.

Goals are like destinations, and below are the GOLDEN GOALS I’ll be focusing on in 2016 as part of my personal growth plan and happiness map.

Just in case you'd like to join me, I want to make sure you have the opportunity to get these in your hands and on your mind before 2016 gets here so you can start the year with your game plan instead of starting the year creating your game plan.  If you truly want to win and have your best year yet, preparation is the key, and planning is a major part of preparing!

The game is won before the game, not during the game.

If 2016 is a game, then let’s play to win, and not just play around.  To win, let’s prepare as much as possible so we can start the game as ready as possible!
If you have questions or need help in any of these areas, let me know in the comment section below.  We’re in this together!

STOP DRIFTING!
