That's a pretty big list. I wonder where some of these items came from - are they things you truly want to have/do/be or are they things you think you ought to want?

Do you want them, or do you want to want them?

It's important that you're making decisions based on what's most important to you, the things that have a personal relevance and mean something to you. If you can make choices that are aligned with those things then you'll be on the right track.

As for how you achieve them, it's the same answer as 'How do you eat an elephant?'. One bite at a time. Once you've made your choice do one thing today, then one more thing tomorrow and one more thing the day after that.

Looking at something you want to achieve in its entirety can be pretty intimidating and can make you want to turn away in a sudden lack of confidence. By all means connect with what you want to achieve but don't let that be your entire focus. Enjoy where you are right now and go about things with a sense of ease and lightness. You'll be more able to achieve meaningful success if you do that.

I could write a whole volume here, but think I'll stop for now!
