GOAL SETTING



            I still spent a couple of days at boarding house to regain all the strength I need to get myself ready for the new job. Seriously, after my resignation, the on and off fever was gone. I know that the solution is just simple: quit my job asap!
            As a part of the rest, I spend time fixing my stuff and reading articles that will bring me new inputs. I read the article entitled 101 Ways to Live Your Life to the Fullest. What captured me most is to create a handbook where you can write down your dreams and goals in life. I realized I need to do it. I need to do some planning and to I don’t need to be surprised that some of them were not really accomplished.
            So I planned again. I created my goals and search my heart what would I really like to do in my life. I realized I was too focused on earthly things- accumulating wealth and worldly materials that will provide temporary satisfaction with my life. That’s the reason why some of them were not achieved yet. God is not part of it. I prayed and still read the bible. I always ask for His guidance. But I realize He is not my top priority and I am soooo ashamed for proclaiming myself a Christian!

            I still thank God that He allowed me to realize this. I prayed for my goals. I broke it down to short-term, mid-term, long-term, and the most important one: my lifetime goal. My lifetime goal is to honor God in everything I do and to spread the gospel across the world. I prayed to God that He will be my priority.
