Goals
My boyfriend will turn 30 very soon and in a recent
conversation with him I asked him about his goals and how they have changed in
the last 10 year? I wanted to get his perspective on his achievements. The
conversation led to some very interesting things that have changed in his life
and the differences in his career. The conversation made me think about goal setting.
Do we set goals in our life because we need to feel a control over our lives
and destiny? Trust me I have many goals in life and am proud to say I have
academically achieved many of my goals. In my personal life I believe God has
changed my path in many ways. Economically I am still working on some goals and
some of my goals have changed. None of us can change life and the things that
happen to us even if those things can change our life and goals. So do we set
goals to be able to find our path in life and try to control it or is goal
setting a way to list the many things we want to achieve in life? Do our shape
us or does life shape our goals?
