what? Never set any personal goals for oneself? How do you plan to achieve what you want in life if you don't set any goals? Even planning for retirement is setting a goal for yourself. The question thus becomes how big a goal do you want to set for yourself. I've got several categories of goals; goals for this month, this year, and the next 3 years, all nicely mapped out and scheduled. I've had several things come up that threatened to derail the plans, but instead of letting them sway me, I simply take care of the issue at hand and continue on.
Then you have the bigger goals. Raise your kids right, get them to college (and kiss that retirement goodbye
), but those are things that can't be measured in days, or weeks, or even years, but things that need to be re-enforced on a daily basis.
Having goals to achieve is a very important part about furthering yourself as a person and as a viable member of society. Just sitting stagnant and letting life take you where it will is something I strongly disagree with.
Just my plugged nickel's worth.
