Be Balance and Set Your Goals in These 6 Areas
One thing most people never do about goal setting is that they never set goals in every area of their life. As you know, if you want to live a successful life, you need to be balance. Just like once you have taken a lot of action, you need some rest to balance it up. It is the same if you keep on looking at your monitor without doing other things, you need to spend at least some time to rest your eyes after that.
Therefore, you have to set goals in every area of your life. And the 6 areas are:
1. Financial and career
How much do you want to earn per month? How much do you want to make each year? Did plan on your retirement? If you are working, how do you plan on climbing the corporate ladder? Which position are you going to plan to be promoted? Are you plan on asking a raise in your salary?
2. Social and cultural
How are you going to contribute to the society? Do you satisfy with your life with your friends? How are you going to contribute to your society and how can you practice your culture in a better way? Will you visit orphanage often? How much are you going to donate each and every month or year?
3. Spiritual and ethical
How many times do you pray a week? Are you planning on visiting the church or temple once at least every month? How can you contribute for your spiritual and ethical growth?
4. Home and family
How many days are you going to spend with your family in a month? Are you going to have at least a day off as your family day? How can you contribute for your home and family? What should you do to build even stronger bond with your family members?
5. Mental and education
How many hours are you going to spend in reading and learning? As you know, learning and constant improving is one the ingredients to success. So are you ready to invest more in education and keep on improve yourself? The moment you stop to learn, you stop to grow.
6. Physical and health
How satisfied are you with your current level of physical health? Are you living up to your own standards in terms of diet and exercise? Are you going to jog for at least 2 times in a week? What sports you are going to take each week? Maintaining good health is one of the crucial recipe to your ultimate success. It is useless even if you have a lot of money but you don’t have a good and healthy body.
These are the 6 areas of that you MUST set your goals in. Maybe you have done very well financially, but you cannot manage your relationship with your family members well. Therefore, if you are serious in achieving great success, you must set goals in these 6 areas and be balance.
Setting goals across every area of your life is one of the most important criteria in goal setting. Many people thought that success is just about being rich and getting more money in their life. In fact, success is not just about excelling financially, but in every area of your life.
So make sure you set goals in every area of your life from now on. Even if you don’t like to sport and you hate your home and family, set at least one goal to improve them. Nothing is going to happen automatically. Goal setting is the tool of bringing the invisible to visible. If you understand what goal setting can do for you, you will know how powerful it can be in your life and what it can do for you.
