Today’s Guest
I'm back again, with another solo episode! This week's episode was inspired by an email from listener Alex, who wrote:
“Nature helps me find my inner peace … It allows me to breathe better and even sometimes when I lie down comfortably on the ground floor next to flowers and grass, I then indulge into some private thinking time without any interruption. Have I come to any exciting realizations you ask? Well I can say I definitely have and my most recent one was establishing my life goals for the next 50-60 years from now. You might think it's ambitious, but I believe with a little help and fresh air, I'd established myself where I want to be in 50 years time. One such moment before the end of August, I was sat down with nature with a pen and paper and I plotted where and what I want to achieve in my 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and even my 60s and 70s! Sounds like a lot of hard work I'm preparing for, but I've a whole life to achieve these goals before I hope to die before I'm 100!"
Well, I was impressed! I certainly didn't have that level of clarity about my life when I was in my teens, much less my 20s. I didn't start really planning my life and setting my goals until I was in my mid-30s, which is pretty late. So I started thinking: what has each decade of my life been like so far? What do I want future decades to be like?
I spend a lot of time setting goals for each upcoming year, but it's been ages since I really took the time to look this far into the future. I think it's a fantastic exercise in life planning and reality creation, and I urge you to take the time to do the same. Essentially, this is a very detailed way of answering the last of The Three Questions (Who am I – Where am I – Where am I going).
