Setting out a goal that pushes you to be a little better than you are, to try a little harder than you have can have unexpected benefits. I am making sure to always have another goal, something set up for a future date that I have to work on to accomplish. Whether it’s physical, financial, spiritual or any other area of life, having them constantly reminds me that I am alive and improving.  Once I hit a goal, I set another, it feels great to both hit the goal (or at least come close) and to then set another. This cycle of setting and working towards achieving and then seeing some results is a good way to always keep improving. Without these goals, periods of time can go by that are very unproductive. Before you know it you may look back at a year or more and wonder what you did. Keep setting and keep challenging.
