If you do not know where you are going, every road will get you nowhere. (Henry Kissinger) The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want. (Ben Stein) When you see a thing clearly in your mind, your creative success mechanism within you takes over and does the job much better than you could do it by conscious effort or willpower. (Maxwell Maltz) You seldom get what you go after unless you know in advance what you want. (Maurice Switzer) What do you want for your life? What do you want your life to be about? What will be your legacy? Youll bounce out of bed in the mornings when you have some crystal clear responses to these questions. Most of us travel through time in reaction to all that comes our way, rather than being proactive in accomplishing our goals. The first step to achieving any desired outcome is being clear about your chosen direction and knowing your intentions. One way to gain clarity is by spending some quiet time and pondering some questions. The following is a list to help elicit information that you might use, to be more in touch with your lifes purpose. What are the things you really love? What do you find disdainful? What thrills you? What do you live to do? What is the most important thing in life? What three values those who know me best would use to describe what you stand for? What are the three values you hold that motivate you to get up and get going everyday? If you absolutely knew you could not fail, what is it that you would now attempt? What were the things you spent most of your time on when you were young? What do you see in your life five years from now, ten years from now & fifteen years from now? Currently, what are the things on which you spend most of your time? Which are the ones you would spend much more time doing if you had complete freedom in these areas? Which are the ones on which you would spend less time? What are the activities in your life that you clearly have chosen to do and which activities do you believe have been decided for you? Imagine for a moment that you are 89 years old and reflecting on your life: Who are your friends? What are the things you are doing? What are the smells you smell? What are the feelings you feel? What does your environment look like? What memories make you extremely proud about how you lived your life? What do you regret because it's something you had not attempted or accomplished? Be very specific, describing everything in vivid detail, as though it really were your history that youve recorded.
