"Goals are dreams with a deadline".&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; If you want a "better life",&nbsp; just define what that means to you &amp; jot down what you need to do to get there.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; What do you need to accomplish each particular step, &nbsp; what resources &amp; how much time will it take.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; You might be surprised as to see how easy it can be. &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Just get your dream down on paper ... that's your 1st step. &nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; Are you working towards your dream now or are you working on someone else's dream?&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Since life is short &amp; time is so precious we need to occasionally analyze our Life in relation to time.&nbsp; For instance.. How much "time" are you spending on what's most important to you?</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1.&nbsp; write down what are the most important parts of your life?&nbsp; (spouse, children, charity, spiritual, finances)</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2.&nbsp; write down what are you spending most of your time on... &nbsp; most people find a pretty significant dis-connect between what's important to us compared to what we spend our time on.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3.&nbsp; write down what you "can" fix to get items #1 and #2 closer together.</p><p>Before you know it...&nbsp; you'll be on your way to living your dream! &nbsp; &nbsp; <br></p> Barry Lieberman (Coldwell Banker Sky Ridge) Thu, 14 Feb 2008 20:24:32 -0800 http://activerain.com/blogsview/380123/live-the-dream
