The of the common question that you may have faced many times and that is "where do you see yourself after five or ten years?" I know many of us get bored to answer this or feel unnecessary about such a question.
Let me ask you one thing, do you ever take the time to honestly answer this question? If not then you should do this right now. It's not like, writing them down or talking about them will make you achieve them. But this process will surely give you a better understanding of 'how you see your life'.
This is the best way to know your perspective clearly. It clears our minds and we start to picture our future. It doesn't mean whether or not we are gonna replicate what's on our minds. But those visions slowly but surely will shape our 'way of life' to achieve something/go closed to our goals.
You will notice, most of our long-term goals end up being our dreams, in reality, we find ourselves doing something else. This is the one big reason that blocks our path to set some vision in front of us. And this is I'm telling you the biggest mistake we made.
We should actually do the opposite! They say we should set some unrealistic and huge goals and dreams to ambush our power. It sounds really crazy. But think this way, when you have a big vision, maybe you will not make it but you surely will go closer.
So, never hesitate to make long-term goals and visions. It may make you seem nerd but believe me it will help you in real life.
While it's very important to have long-term goals that keep us motivated, the way you seek to meet those goals is equally important.
Many specialists say that one of the best methods is to set small goals that you can achieve easily within a specified time period. Think about it as steps to reach your ultimate goals.
