Goals galore!

My past goals were:

Get a college education
Have a career and support myself and be on my own a while.
If God was wanted it for me, get married and have kids.
Be debt free and financially independant (set along with getting student loans).
To travel the US and hopefully the world.

So far all of those are acheived (only made it to Canada and Mexico beyond the US so far.)

Current goals:
Short term: Fold the laundry and clean my desk.
Medium range: Be the best Mom and Wife I can be.
Long range: Write and be published.

There's a lot more, but that could get a bit boring.

i was listening to Family Life Network this morning on my drive time to work --9am show (i was running a bit late... maybe that should be a goal for me: don't be late to work!!) about having goals that are realistic. It was very interesting about making 2 degree changes -- and not making goals that are too lofty to ever attain.

What stuck with me was taking small actions and watch how that will help you with bigger changes.

Maybe someone else heard that show too? I only had about 10 minutes to listen!

blessings,
andrealin

I see you want to be debt free. I know of 2 ladies that prayed asking them to OWE NO MAN NOTHING BUT LOVE - They prayed that consistently - they did all they could to make it come true and both women have been debt free for years outside of owing property taxes and things of that nature that come on a yearly basis. ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD!!!

There are some goals that show a sense of adventure in the fullest form.

Long term goal: Find a manufacturer for my patent
Short term goal: clean my condo. But, by the way things look, it might turn into a long term goal.
