Insights on Goal Strategies

Does it feel like there's people just sucking the life out of you?

Earlier this year I was at a business seminar with one of the key note speakers being a Hindu priest and international speaker named Dandapani. I was dubious as what I would get from him, but he was a thought provoking speaker in many ways.

I'm an avid Crossfitter, the intensive functional fitness regime (www.crossfitshoalhaven.com).

Some would say obsessive.

But a big part of what CrossFit is about is Community, and on the weekend while competing at Survival of the Fittest 3 in Nowra I really saw that at work.

Life is busy. Balance is a challenge. Time and attention are valuable and limited.

Often we wonder how some people spread themselves thin but get it done.

Answer – Organisation.  And with technology these days it should be easier than ever.

We've all got desire in our lives.  Desire to own something, to eat a food, to go on holidays, or be with that one you've fallen for.

I think desire to achieve a result is more important, and probably covers all the above anyway. What do I mean?

I really hope you're not leaving meeting your budgets and targets to the whims of chance.

The only way to make sure you're actually achieving what you set out to  achieve in $ terms, new customers, visiting clients - is to chunk it down and monitor it.

But what does that actually mean?

People who know me know I enjoy my running.  Long distance running at that.  10km runs are like a casual stroll, and half marathons are when it starts to get serious.  

City 2 Surf is a nice 14km hit out.  And I've just started my program to tackle Canberra Marathon (again) in early April 2012.

For the last few months my brother Troy and I have been planning a dive trip to QLD. We kept ourselves flexible as to what weekend we would go, in order to get the best weather conditions. Our plan was a fairly simple one.

Drive north, find warm water, spear tasty fish, and have life experiences to remember.
