Live Your Best Life!
I was riding one Sunday and I heard a song that said, “Now is the time to live your best life!“ It went on to say we living our best life we so HIGH all day everyday!
I was inspired, and I wish I knew who the artist was. This brings me to my main point:
A question I want you to ask yourself in this new year: What is my legacy?
I would like to share with you a few preliminary suggestions on how to build your legacy.
Let’s start with goal setting, more specifically, SMART GOALS.
SMART Goals is a system of goal setting that allows us to be as thorough as possible when determining our future.
Specific - Your goal should be clearly defined with no room for ambiguity. It’s the difference between "I want to be a high school teacher" & "I want to earn a masters degree in English."
Measurable - This involves a little bit of number crunching. Earning a degree is measurable because you can specify the number of years it's going to take then set a date.
Achievable - Take a moment to consider your circumstances, finances, and resources. If you have a full-time job and 3 children to manage, you might want to consider other options.
Relevant - Is your goal realistic? Is it complementary to other goals in your life?
Timely - Some goals take time while others can happen swiftly. Determine whether your goal is going to produce results that are proportionate in value to the amount of time you put into it.
I hope this tip helps you make one step closer towards your legacy in the New Year!
One,
Jazzie
