SETTING MY LONG-TERM GOALS
Quotes
Shakespeare
"Strong reasons make strong actions"
WHY am I doing this?
Why is it really important to me to achieve this goal?
Articulate clear compelling reasons
[e.g.
To prove to myself that I can take on a huge physical challenge and accomplish it
A 21st birthday gift for my daughter Aliya that she will cherish for the rest of her life
To inspire others to set and accomplish huge goals
To experience and celebrate nature through a photo essay/s
Because I have told the world I am doing it!
To have time for deep reflection, out of the box thinking, and different perspectives on life
To experience firsthand the challenge of the mountain so that I can assess its suitability as a leadership challenge for high schools students at independent schools across North America
To help students raise funds for scholarship endowments at their school and for local, child centred educational initiatives
To raise awareness of HIV/AIDs in North America among independent school students
To fulfill a 33 year dream, having taken my first flight over Kilimanjaro when I was 10 years old.]
Emotion focused
Based on pain or a huge challenge
MY WHY
Lifehacker
Pitfalls
It's harder than I thought
#
I can't deal with all these people
Why am I doing this?
#
Ugh, I just don't want to do this anymore
Fall in love with boredom.
Fall in love with repetition and practice.
Fall in love with the process of what I do and let the results take care of themselves.
What happened to them won't happen to me
Lifehacker
vague goals into actions
Goals and to-dos are different
Steps
Develop 3-month, 6-month or 12-month milestones
look at the big goal, find where I can insert milestones. then work back from there
e.g.
For instance, let's look at "happiness" again. You should have defined what that really means to you in the above section, but let's say you define happiness by being well traveled. Long-term goals might include travelling to new countries or visiting more of your own. However, a six month milestone might be something like, "visit the national parks in my own state" and a three month goal might be as simple as "visit 10 new neighborhoods in my own city". Once you have these plans it's easier to create daily or weekly to-do list items.
