I'll Go Anywhere As Long As It's Forward

I saw a great
quote the other day on an advertising board, from Dr David Livingstone,
"I'll go anywhere as long as it’s forward."
Obviously said in the context of his goal to explore the depths of darkest
Africa but isn't it a great maxim to live your life by?
By living your life with the goal that every
action you take has to move you forward, you will quickly see possibilities
which you never saw before. Your mind will seek out new opportunities to
move you forward.
I am sure we all have friends or family
members who either spend their time at best, standing still, or at worse,
going backwards in life. Look at your life now, compared to how it was 5
years ago. Have you gone backwards, stood still or moved forward? If it's
the first two, then it's time to shift your view of life!
Let's look at which areas of your life you
should shake up.
Family
Are you
spending enough time with them? What can you do to bring more balance in
your life?
Health
Over
the last few years have you gained a few extra pounds? In moving forward
could you change your eating habits?
Social
To move forward in life it helps to meet new
people and experience new things. Can you widen your social horizons?
Relationships
Are
there relationships in your life which are holding you back? Do you need to
develop new relationships?
Goals
Do you
know where you want to be in 5 or 10 years time? To progress in life you
have to have clear goals.
Wealth
Money,
or the lack of it, can hold you back. Put a plan in place which will provide
a financial nest egg for the future.
Business/Career
What
are your career goals? Do you see yourself in the same role in 5 years? If
not, what do you have to do to plan your next move?
Take some time out to look at where you are
now. Decide that all your actions should now to be framed with the aim of
moving forward. Remember, go anywhere as long as it's forward!
