Man is a goal seeking animal. His life only has meaning if he is reaching out and striving for his goals. (Aristotle)
Setting goals starts with visualizing what you would like your life to be. Life goals should be as broad as possible, covering the spectrum of your interests and desires: family and relationships, community, personal identity, education, career, creativity, physical fitness, hobbies and free time. With total disregard for what anyone else hopes for you or wants you to do, create a description of what you would like your life to look like in 20 years. Begin by defining the personal philosophy and core values that influence the person you hope to be and what you hope to achieve. Then brainstorm and come up with as many goals in each category you have identified as important. Be as detailed as possible without having to commit to who you will marry or when, or what particular career you might have, or how old you would like your children to be.
