I want to achieve a lot of things. I want to be remembered for something great. I want to leave a legacy for my family that they can be proud of. But what am I doing to secure them? Nothing. Everyday I talk about doing something great. And every day passes with me doing nothing. I have determined that this is the battle. I believe that this can be contributed to one thing; that being a lack of establishing the actual goals. I can say I am going to do X, but I have nothing to remind me of my commitment. I have nothing to look towards. Nothing staring back at me, wondering if I have what it takes. I have committed to may things before and some of those are still taking place, but others have failed.
These goals do not have be to profound in nature. They surely will not be complex. But they will be things that I want to achieve. Please note that these are not “bucket list” items. Or merely things that I want to do in life. But rather, things that I want to accomplish because they provide passion.
So without further ado, here is my list of goals:
Graduate from college (B.S. Government).
Become debt free.
Retire with $1,000,000 in savings.
Write a book. (Fiction/Non-Fiction, it doesn’t matter).
Become physically fit/healthy.
Own my own business.
Pursue the arts (Painting/Photography)
Learn to code.
I challenge you to establish your own goals. And devise a plan that will allow you to achieve them.
“Many people fail in life, not for lack of ability or brains or even courage but simply because they have never organized their energies around a goal” – Elbert Hubbard
You have accomplished a lot. First and foremost you have a beautiful family, you are a great das and husband. You are going to school to start the road to sucess. And I am very proud of the man you have become. Xxooxxoo
Thanks!
