Recently I read a blog post by Jack Canfield where he shared his list and talked about the importance of creating a similar list.
The reason, Jack said, is because "the brain is a goal seeking organism."
Meaning that we need to feed our brain goals for it to focus on and seek out ways to accomplish.
After reading Jack's blog I was inspired to revisit my list. When I did, I was pleased to see I had accomplished about 20 from my original list.
I've now created a new list. This list includes many from my original list and quite a few new ones as well.
The goals are in no particular order. I just wrote them as they popped up. :)
I hope the sharing of my list inspires you to make a list of your own.
What are some of your goals?
Are you committed to realizing them?
Carpe Diem,
Jesse
