The willingness to pursue new goals takes knowledge,peristence and a desire to alter one’s life. The goals may be simple or in some cases complex, but you have proven to yourself that there is some cotrol that you have achieved. It is my hope that this approach, if you have found it worthwhil,e will be one that you utilize over and over. Goal setting is part of my life and I have found that the process has ongoing value and has enriched my life. It is not magical by itself but there are many goals that have been completed such as writing a novel. Without the focus and planning many of my experiences would still be under the wish and want categories.
