Long term goals are important but vary for each individual. Once we set a long term goal, our subconscious mind will never “erase” it. (Alberta School of business) No matter where we live, what we do and how old we are, our subconscious will continue actively searching for ways to achieve our long term goals. Having long term goals allows us to see beyond today’s work and keep our motivation high.
To set a long term goal, take a moment to think about your future in 5 years from now. Where do you want to be living? What kind of work do you want to be doing? Who do you want to spend it with? Then, ask yourself – are you ready to work hard and make sacrifices to get where you want to go? You know that you are on the right track when you are willing to accept not only the “compelling” part of accomplishing your goal, but also the responsibility that comes with it.
Apply this strategy to your SFI business and choose just one long term goal – financial freedom; investment; debt management, etc. Switching between multiple long term goals is a sure way to leave all of them half-way. Therefore, self-help experts suggest that we pick just one long term goal and concentrate all our efforts on it.
One of the great ways to prevent yourself from getting off track is to break your long-term goal into smaller objectives that take 3 to 12 months to complete. Then break those objectives into even smaller steps that could be completed in just a few days’ or a few weeks’ time. You now have an action plan that you can work with.
