Mapping out your life

My favorite teacher and philoshoper Jim Rohn always says, "The same wind blows on us all, it's the set of the sail.........."

Do you know where you're going or where you want to end up?

Sit down an write down a list of goals and spell out your philosophy. Short term and long term. Give yourself timelines to meet your goals and break them down into categories.

Some of mine for example:

Personal ----Invest life into life through sharing, Improve relationships with the right people, Continous education throughout life
Health ----Run a 10k, Fix my nose, Stay under 175lbs and fit for life
Financial ----Become a millionaire, Retire by 55, Bi-weekly mortgage payments
Business ----Educate myself to become a better leader, Track my business more accurately and adapt constantly, Develop a business model

We are programmed to need that carrot out in front of our nose to keep us motivated. You have to continually review your goals and philosophy and as you check things off the list, you must make new to grow.

I started keeping a journal about two months ago. I write down those great thoughts and days to reflect on along with some bad. You have to study your own life. You can't rely on your own memory.

If you don't have the knowledge or skills, read a book or take a class.

"If you will change, everything will change for you" -Jim Rohn
