Goals, Dreams or Something Else

By December 14, 2021 No Comments

“What are your goals?”

“What are your dreams?”

Regardless of what stage of life you’re in, these are two questions that raise my hackles (if indeed I had any).

Goals: Is it a number? It is a place? Is it a destination?

Dreams: Is it real? Is it attainable? Does it have depth or merely a passing thought?

Instead, I think the appropriate question is: What do you truly care about and why?

As we live along the continuum of our life journey, I use that question to propel me forward. I need to care about something enough to give it my attention and apply effort.

Words are important. How we frame our ideas can be central to their attainment.

What do you think?
