The way to prepare for the future is to invent it.
John Scally
Many times, we are bound only by our thoughts of our own inability to get something done. Most of us, at one time or another, feel subject to feelings of inadequacy. There are times when thinking about financial hardships, failing relationships or any number of other kinds of obstacles sends us into a mental "tailspin" and facing the next day's work, or the next encounter with someone who is antagonistic, or negative, is just too overwhelming to face!
As you look at the days, weeks, months, and years ahead, do you like what you see? Do you have plans for tomorrow that will help you move closer to goals you've set for yourself for a year, or five years from now?
It's great to have someone helping you set goals, and it's great to set some basic goals such as exercise & diet plans, professional development, better relationships with family members and friends. But, relying on goals that basically "belong" to someone else leaves little room for your passion for achieving those goals to grow. It leaves little room for the feeling of satisfaction when you accomplish something that will move you one step closer to the goal you've created for yourself!
I learned long ago that there's no one who knows my heart and my goals quite like I know them! Are you setting goals that can happen...goals that are attractive to you?
As you think about your future, right now, in this very moment, plan something you would like to accomplish in the next 5 years. Invent a picture of what your life can be professionally and personally! Do so in vivid detail so you will have a clear picture!
You've invented your future! I wish you all the best and I would love to hear about a new goal you've set for yourself!
Blessings,
Sharon
