Building a life is like building a house. We need a solid foundation and a good project. It is necessary to calculate everything in order to get the result by the right time. Therefore, the construction of life will begin on paper.
Instruction manual
one
Write down everything you want to achieve and what to become by the age of 75. In principle, you can determine any age that you consider to be "deeply elderly." Why should we take such a long time and not plan ahead for 5 or 10 years? - Because a distant look will help you immediately concentrate on the most important thing and you will have no illusions that there are still many, many options ahead. So you will not spend years on various trifles.
2
Break a large target into intermediate shallow targets. Now write down what needs to be achieved in 5 years, in 15 and in 25 years. You can break a large target at any time intervals, as you wish. The main thing is that you clearly see how year after year you can approach old age and at the same time fulfill all your dreams.
3
Write down a plan - what needs to be done or what to learn in the coming year, 3 years and 5 years, in order to get closer to the main goal. The plan should show you how you will achieve your plan. Do not be afraid to make mistakes, the plan can always be adjusted. But if you live completely without a plan, then it is better not to talk about any achievement of the goal.
4
Stop wasting time on anything that doesn't bring you closer to your goal. Determine once and for all what you will do every day and what you will not. And start doing what you need. Someone said that life is like connecting dots. You just move from one point to another. The main thing is that you determine these points yourself, and not someone in your place.
note
Everyone faces problems and obstacles in life. Sometimes you have to switch to other things. But in order not to turn off the chosen route of life, keep your project constantly before your eyes. Carry a short plan with you so that you don’t forget about it for a minute. Do it from year to year and you will succeed.
Useful advice
Try to look through the project of your life every day to remind yourself what you are striving for. If you prefer visual mastery of information, then draw your project, as they do for comics. Or paste beautiful pictures into an album.
If you prefer information in the form of tables or graphs, then draw tables that are easy to read.
