Your Most Important Goal

We all have bills to pay, laundry and dishes to wash, errands to run, and things to learn. So, even when you cut down the dizziness of modern life (from tweeting to gaming) in our lives to focus on your important goals, a lot still gets in the way.

The important thing is to choose one main goal. Pick something you will love. Just one.

Then commit to it and don`t get distracted by other shiny new things, like starting another novel in the middle of your first book, or beginning to study Japanese after you decided to learn to bake breads. 

Decide if your goal is a something you want to do for a month, or until you finish the project, or if you want to spend years mastering it (like the guitar).

It`s often good to set a short time limit on it, say a week or two. After that you can say, "Hey, I ran a mile each morning this week, I did it just like I said I would." Then you can find something else or run miles for another two weeks. And you’ll start again full of confidence and determination.
