8 Ways to Know Where You Are Going Today (& Get There!)

Do you know where you’re going today?

Many people don’t.

In fact, many aren’t going anywhere.

Others are traveling in circles, repeating the same things over-and-over.

The most important part is knowing where you are going in the first place.

Where are you headed today?

Travelling in Circles

Some people drift through their days and life. Claiming they are carefree, they let life take them where it might.

Others are so disorganized that they can’t tell up-from-down. Their chaos is usually self-inflicted.

In either extreme, you are not in control of your path.

Show me someone who doesn’t write down their todos or goals…

And I’ll show you someone who doesn’t know where they are going in life.

If you don’t know where you are going… how will you know when you get there?

Know Where You Are Headed (& Get There!)

Knowing where you are going is the first step in getting there.

Here are 10 Ways to Know Where You Are Going Today & Get There:

1. Look at Your Todo List – Keep a detailed todo list. It doesn’t matter if it is on paper or your smartphone. What is important is that you are aware of the tasks you need to do and write them down.
2. Review Your Calendar – Where are you supposed to be today? Managing your calendar prevents conflicts, last-minute issues, and can actually recover much wasted time. Give your calendar the attention it deserves.
3. Write Down Your Goals – Where do you want to be down the road? What are your hopes and dreams? Write them down. Be specific. Many people hesitate to write them down because they feel it locks them in. You can change your goals as your life changes. But, you must have them in the first place.
4. Do Something That You Should be Doing – Put priorities first. Being productive is good, but working on the things that take you where you want to be is better. Make sure you do the things that matter most.
5. Take Care of Yourself – You won’t be going anywhere if you don’t take care of yourself. Too many people put off taking care of themselves. Make sure you maintain your health and well-being each and every day.
6. Don’t Repeat Yourself – Learn from your actions. That is what experience is all about. Don’t be afraid to take risks and make mistakes. Just makes sure you learn from them or you are bound to repeat them.
7. Partner With Others – The journey is much easier and better with others. Often, your travelling partners can point out things along the way that you might have ignored or taken for granted.
8. Do Your Habits Today – You are what you do today. If you want to get where you are going, make sure you do your habits each and every day. It sounds simple, but it is not.

Where Are You Going Today?

Don’t be driftwood in your daily life.

Instead, be deliberate about where you are headed each and every day.

You just might get where you are going.
