Measuring Success (Setting Life Goals)

Below is a quick exercise to assist you in making the proper goals in your life.

Blank Piece of Paper
Fold the Paper in Half
On the left side of the paper write at the top "Accomplishments"
On the right side of the paper right down the things you want highlighted about you at your funeral

Note: the younger you are you may not have much to list, but I challenge you to dig deep and think about the milestone you are most proud of. Secondly of the accomplishments you mentioned, how many would you want spoken about at your funeral?

The goal of this exercise is to establish the things most important for you to accomplish in your life time?

Things to consider when you are through evaluating what you want to accomplish...

What did I do today to accomplish these goals?
What do I have planned tomorrow?
Are my goals realistic?
What is the predominant theme of my goals? (spiritual, family, career, monetary)
How close is the situation I am in today helping me achieve what is most important to me?

Life is short! If your situation is off course, change it tomorrow!
