Goals For Life: How Far Ahead Can You See?

When it comes to planning life goals is often difficult to see the road that eventually leads to what seems so far away. In this article, we take a look at a way to help deal with this problem often encountered and overcome.

I think it often helps to create a mental picture - in terms of what I can understand - a particular problem. So for really big projects worth having a great picture! The one I used to see life goals is a mountain. It was there, at the foot of the mountain in search of the top: how to get there?

It is tempting to think that you can not trigger, and sheer determination and perseverance to reach the summit itself. This may be true, but for every thousand that triggered this way, maybe one will reach the top. So how do you get there? Well, first of all, ask yourself this - exactly how you will climb a mountain too big?

Think about it. Maybe you've seen documentaries on the subject, maybe not. However, if you think about it, there really is only one way you can do: in several stages. That's right - a base camp, base camp two and so on until you are ready to go up.

How is this related to long-term goals? In short, it is much easier to break a journey - or objective Life Expectancy - sections scheduled to take place all at once. In addition, if only one target is set - in our mountain top model - it is impossible to evaluate the progress of the journey.

With this sole purpose, in general, there are two main problems. The first is that, because of the long time scale - maybe twenty or thirty years in some cases - the purpose is lost or altered beyond recognition, or simply forgotten in the general tumult, life daily. The second is that without steps along the way. the long-term goal may change permanently or distorted or fizzle for lack of any measurable achievement.

This is why the establishment of milestones is essential - not only for the success of climbing, but also the realization and implementation of any long-term goal. In any project I undertake I've always had long-term goals short, medium and. This does not only how the whole project, but also allows me to know that I am on track with my current target.


Now I do not blame you for thinking that this lifestyle is restrictive or obsessive. Not blame you if you thought I could not understand how anyone could live your life with a continuum of goals extend away from them in the future. However, I blame you if not to learn the simple - and simple - structured process of setting goals allows potential slip away from you!

It is not limited to - the objectives can be modified and adapted to overstructure their long-term plans. There is nothing wrong with changing their milestones - as long as you change them - and not the reverse. Perhaps there is a better way to the mountain you think!

A goal in life should be to have two criteria that are important to recognize. The first is that the goal - perhaps the purpose of life in general and all the intermediate targets - is achievable. If it is not - and only you can decide whether or not - it makes the creation of meaning. Only frustrate and demoralize. On the other hand, it is not too easy either! However, goals that are too easy are preferable to not - too easy early target was identified and then can harden a bit!

The second is that the goal must be measurable. How can you move forward in your master plan? How much money did - and is it enough? Was on time - or budget? If you can not answer these questions, the evaluation of your goal, then you do not have it right and the effectiveness of its reduction target.

To summarize this brief article, try to remember: do not set a long term goal without breaking the project down into achievable, measurable, is much easier to divide the project into several parts that you can manage. No goals for any company it deems useful to all, and it will soon become a habit. Maybe not the coolest usual you can imagine having, but when you stand on top of your personal mountain, it might seem the most valuable!
