How Goal-Oriented are You?
by Miki Saxon
My readers, my clients and my friends are all pretty driven.
They are goal oriented high achievers; the kind who always see past their current project to the next and the next and the next…
They are fully wired, very social (on and off line) and heavily involved in numerous projects.
They rarely disconnect or step away and are deaf to the sound of silence.
But Sid Caesar, who made the world laugh half a century ago, has some great advice for them—and you.
“Everybody wants to have a goal: I gotta get to that goal, I gotta get to that goal, I gotta get to that goal. Then you get to that goal, and then you gotta get to another goal. But in-between goals is a thing called life that has to be lived and enjoyed — and if you don’t, you’re a fool.”
So don’t be a fool; go after your life with the same tenacity you go after your goals.
