Set your goal date today and make a huge leap towards achieving your dreams.
If you are reading this site then you likely share my dream of not being stuck driving into work everyday. Getting up and getting ready for work; stressing about the pile of work sitting on your desk…
You want to escape and fulfill your dream of becoming a world traveler. You may even want to seek a job that fulfills a passion.
Honestly, I do not want to be jobless, but I want the option to try any job that peeks my interest without the fear of going hungry and sleeping out in the rain(unless I am in a tent, of course).
A goal is a dream with a deadline.
This quote by Napoleon Hill is a truth worth remembering. The power of setting a deadline and reminding yourself can have a huge impact on completing your dreams.
Days left to achieve my goal
Until recently I have never actually set a goal date for my dream of finding my escape path. I finally wrote down a number(5 years * 365 days = 1825 days till I am done) on a white board to remind myself everyday to get one step closer to my goal.
The impact of doing this has been huge for me. I walk in every morning into my cubical and wipe off the old number and rewrite the new number. Even better is the Monday after the weekend. I get to reduce the number even more. This acts as a physical and mental reminder to my goal. Refreshing my interest daily. Giving my brain a kick in the rear to stay focused and remember why I put it there.
Don’t let your dreams just be dreams.
