Goals.
When you are setting your goals, it’s good to remember a few things.
There is no point in waiting for permission or readiness to follow a dream. Dream fulfilment comes from action, not from waiting.
In the search for happiness and fulfilment, it is wise to incorporate an enthusiastic appreciation for life’s twists and turns into one’s definitions of success.
Learning is an iterative process of failure and advancement, loops and blind alleys. Progress comes as much from a process of elimination and inspiration as from carefully researched direction or aspiration.
Destinations are often reached as a result of luck and love, rather than well-laid plans. The unexpected will upset your plans, and nature will inevitably introduce glorious mess into your structured, tidy life.
Life, in all of its complex beauty, is for living rather than planning. The texture and tone of a moment will stay with you long after your checklist is forgotten.
Setting goals is an act of energetic intention-setting. Doing so aligns your own mind and energies, and in turn clarifies both the internal terrain and the path toward them. Coaching can expedite this process tremendously — but your capacity to see the choices you actually have, and to find your own truth about what you want, are in themselves a grand self-awareness adventure: one that can benefit from a multidisciplinary approach including mentoring, journaling, art, therapy, introspection and contemplation.

So I invite you to grab hold of this great big adventure called life, and live it — in spite of your plans and fears.
