First of all, I think it is very necessary to figure out where you are in life in relation to where you want to be.
After I have made this necessary distinction, I ask myself what things I can do in order to get to where I want to be in the future. I have to pay attention not to compile a lot of goals together because it is better an inch at a time than never doing it or giving up along the line because of an overwhelming situation.
I will have to take a look at these steps and verify and analyse them using the SMART analysis to ensure they are Specific, Measurable. Attainable, Realistic and Timed. This is necessary because without these qualities, I might not achieve them or not be proud of them after.
One other thing thing that struck me earlier while reading was that these goals should reflect my career choice and should be able to help me in that endeavor.
And if in any case in the process of pursing my goals, I realize I have gone off track, I would have to sit down with myself or a mentor, analyze where I went off track, fix the problem or re-strategize my goals and surge forward.
There is no quitting until I win because I know Life is a journey and the best I can do is to continually give this journey my best even if I make mistakes along the way.
