For example, I think I should do sth to help the needed people today.
But several days later I probably have some other idea that I 'd better focus on my own study in college.
I began to learn a foreign language last two weeks, and I found I stopped it unconsciously this week. I just cannot stick to one goal all the time.
My mind changes every day and I am not aware of it. |
Firstly, you can't have just one goal. Or two. Or even three, or four.
You should have MANY goals. Eg lifetime goals; 10-year goals; 5-year goals; 1-year goals; monthly goals; weekly goals; daily goals. Academic goals; fitness goals; spiritual goals; family goals; financial goals etc.
And recognise that you won't be pursuing all goals with equal energy, enthusiasm or effort, at the same time. Eg if your exam is
tomorrow, your top goal for
today would probably be to study for the exam. Not to help needy people.
What you should have - is enough goals, to constantly occupy you in the here and now.
If you're bored, you're not living. Go live! Find something to do.
And make it a
meaningful something. That's why you need to consciously choose and set your goals.
Otherwise your "something" will probably be along the lines of plonking yourself in front of the TV and wasting your life away.
Then when your time on Planet Earth is over, and your whole life is flashing before your eyes, all you're gonna see is past episodes of "Survivor" or "Friends".
Or worse - the Paris Hilton show.
