I run into people all the time who say that they do not have enough.\u00a0 This is a very broad statement and one I think we all need to evaluate in our own lives.<\/p>\n

What constitutes “enough” in your life?\u00a0 Is having a loving family enough or do you need to own the house your family is in?\u00a0 Is being able to pay the bills every month enough or do you need a million dollars in the bank?\u00a0 There is no right or wrong here – just an evaluation of where “enough” stands for you.<\/p>\n

Let us do something to take action.\u00a0 Take three minutes and write a list of items that you feel satisfies your life.\u00a0 This could be kids, money, family or could even be something like notebooks if you are a writer. Whatever you feel fulfills your life and you have enough write it down even if it wouldn’t make sense to anyone else.<\/p>\n

Now,\u00a0 beside that list make another column and write down items in your life that you don’t feel that you have enough of.\u00a0 Same rules apply, whether it would make sense to anyone else is irrelevant and go for three minutes.\u00a0 Just let it flow out of you as you write the list no matter how out there you think the item is.<\/p>\n

Done?<\/p>\n

Now, compare the two lists.\u00a0 Do you see similarities?\u00a0 If you wrote for the full three minutes I bet you do.\u00a0 See how you can use what you have enough of to fill what you feel you do not have enough of.\u00a0 Many times having it in front of you makes you realize you have more than you thought.\u00a0 What about those things that you do not see similarities on?\u00a0 Well, now is the time for you to determine how much of that thing you need to have enough, pull out your goal planner\/calendar\/paper and outline what specific steps you need to take to have enough.<\/p>\n

Do you see what I did there?\u00a0 You just learned another step in setting goals.\u00a0 You have to figure out what you want or need out of life to be fulfilled before you can set a goal.\u00a0 You need the target.\u00a0 Now you should have several to shoot for.\u00a0 Can’t say you don’t have any goals now can you?<\/p>\n
