Life goals are a healthy part of happy living! Although life doesn’t need to be a check list of completed tasks, and it is important to take time to enjoy the fruits of your labor; progress towards your hopes and dreams is best accomplished with well-thought out and intentional goals. Success comes most frequently with a combination of determination, persistence, passion, consistency, and focus. When you are engaged with life at this level, you are living as an active participant within your own world. This live action role builds your confidence and purpose within your life. It teaches you how to deal with the highs and lows that come with working toward your goal, while you are given real life opportunities to fine-tune the life skills you need to help you succeed.
No one said life would be easy, but with the right skill sets and positive life perspective, your hopes and dreams can become a living reality. Another positive skill set that supports happy and healthy living is learning to be in the NOW as much as possible. Although it can be helpful to reference the past at times or put on a future focus, life is happening right NOW! This means that our primary focus and influence at impacting the future goals we hold lie within the choices, feelings, thoughts, and actions we take within the moment at hand. As we put our primary focus on what can be done right now, and how we can choose to feel, act, or react about the situations that are currently present to us, we are actually making an impacting difference on our future…be it positive, negative, or indifferent. So, why not make a positive impacting difference on your future? Bring your goals to a forward focus as you take the steps in the NOW to making your future goals a present reality.
