What Do You Want to Do, Be and Have?

Have you heard the management "experts" that tell you " to take control of your life, you must set goals and prioritize your time." But that’s all they say. They don’t say how. Here’s how. Ask yourself and the rest of your family members these key questions. What do I want to do? What do I want to be? What do I want to have? You’ve just identified goals. There are four people in our family - two adults that are parents/farmers/employees and two elementary school children. Every New Years Day we talk about our individual and collective goals for the coming year. We write them down and each person gets a copy. A few years ago we didn’t take time to write our goals. We spent the year floating here and there but not sure we were getting to where we wanted to be. The next year and every year since we write goals without fail.
