When we choose goals, they can either be long term or short term. Goals can be divided into weeks, months, or years. An example of a long term goal is paying something off over several years, such as a car. A monthly goal can be saving up a certain amount of money. A weekly goal can be finishing up a book that we’re at the end of.
Our goals depend on the life we want to live. Because goals lead us to achievements, we choose goals based on where we want to be in life. We choose them because they are of benefit to us. We see the destination as a place that will improve our life, whether that means advancing our career, completing a project, or paying off debt.
Goals vary from person to person because all of us are at a different place in life. They must be realistic and attainable. They must be something that we can take steps toward achieving. If we want to be in a better place, we have to think about our goals carefully, for the goals we choose will shape the course of our life.
