100 Life Goals You Should Aim For Right Now

Published February 27th, 2020
What are your life goals for today? How about tomorrow? Next year? Or ten years from now?
I bet you, the first question is far easier to answer than the last. And it’s understandable. We tend to focus more on our short term goals rather than aiming for long-term ones. You probably haven’t given much thought to what you’d like to do a decade from now. Or if you did, you’re not that confident you’d be able to achieve it. Before you know it, life catches up with you and you realize you’ve wasted all those years in meaningless pursuits.
That’s what goal setting is for. It not only helps you visualize where and who you want to be. It also lets you take active control of your life rather than just letting it happen.
Having a goal also motivates you to work towards achieving them. Have you noticed that when you don’t have anything scheduled for the day, getting out of bed is a real struggle? But if you have things you want to get done, it’s easier to find a reason to get up and start hustling.
But what life goals should you aim for?
Goals vary from person to person. And the kind of goals you set for yourself says a lot about your priorities. It also depends very much on what you want out of life. Do you want to travel? Build a family? Start your own business? Star in your own TV show?
To be able to start your bucket list of goals, you first need to figure out your ultimate objective. You also don’t have to write it all in one sitting. Some goals may come to you while you’re out jogging or while you’re preparing to sleep. So make sure you always have a pen and paper ready for those unexpected epiphanies.
