What Can You Drop Today?

Have you ever considered what would happen if you dropped all of your goals? If you are like most people, right about now you’re thinking I’m crazy. After all, this is a blog about goal setting, isn’t it?

But the point is, we often get too caught up in defining who we are through our goals. When that happens, we sometimes get so tied to achieving the goal that we no longer really know why we’re doing it. Sometimes it’s pressure to measure up to someone else’s standards that drives us to set the wrong goals.

The best way to make sure you are on the right path for yourself is to examine your goals in terms of your values. Do your goals reflect these values? Do you fully understand the relationship between your values and your goals? When your goals are in alignment with your true self you are setting yourself up for living your best life. They then become so compelling that you are naturally drawn to achieving them.

So ask yoursef - What can you drop today?
