100 goals in life. An approximate list of 100 human life goals.


Why plan a year

“The best way to predict the future is to create it” Abraham Lincoln

Do you plan your trip or some major purchase, or do you always buy everything without thinking and go on trips spontaneously? Most likely, you choose the first option. No one wants to waste money by purchasing a low-quality product, and no one wants to ruin their mood because of a poorly organized trip, especially if the trip is so long-awaited.

Then why do many so diligently plan a one or two week trip, and the rest of the year they prefer to “go with the flow”? Is a week of travel really more important than the whole year?

Planning goals helps us understand our desires and priorities, and also reminds us of why we take concrete steps every day.

If you want to realize your goals next year, and not someone else’s, then it’s time to decide what you want, what you are striving for and make a list of what you plan to achieve, and not just dream.

Life with and without goals

No amount of bogus Harvard research on the 3% success rate of graduates will convince you to maintain a habit of living with goals. The reliability of research does not compare with personal experience.

With a specific goal, a person not only becomes more productive, but also feels better: as if he is in control of his life. Feels progress, crossing out a subgoal each time, and the pleasure of realizing the work done. Self-confidence and self-esteem grows - this is useful when it is low.

The best way to test all these statements is to conduct an experiment in your life .
Make a list of goals for 2021 and live by it. If you haven't had this experience, this is a great way to learn something new about yourself and experience purposeful living. If you don’t feel the benefit of such a life, go back to the old way.

How to make a list of goals for the year

There are two options for compiling a list of goals for the year.

The first is to take everything to the maximum, i.e. according to the principle “if you dream of reaching the moon, you will at least jump over the fence.” In this case, it is proposed to set the most ambitious goals. For example, if you receive 20,000 rubles per month, then set a goal to increase your income to at least 200,000 rubles per month. The assumption is that by setting such big goals, you will be more actively looking for different ways to achieve them.

The second planning option is to focus only on a few of the most important goals that you can definitely achieve if you put in some effort. For example, go on a trip somewhere. If you try even a little and purposefully save part of your income, then you will definitely be able to make the trip. This method is suitable for those who “give up” at the slightest failure, and success in achieving even very small goals will help such people be inspired to achieve more ambitious goals in the future.

However, I prefer something in between. I like to make my to-do list for the year by writing down everything I really want to do this year. By compiling a wide list, I understand what I really want now, and what is secondary and can wait until next year, or, in principle, by then it will no longer be interesting to me.

Naturally, the list is periodically adjusted throughout the year, because... Circumstances, interests, and aspirations change. The plan for the year should not be something indisputable. He must be flexible so that you control him, not he controls you.

I usually identify 10 categories of goals and then write my plans according to those categories. I think this is more convenient than simply listing all the goals for the year, because... allows me to more clearly understand what and in what area of ​​my life I want to change and achieve.

These 10 categories are: 1. Health. 2. Spirituality. 3. Family, relationships. 4. Environment. 5. Self-development, personal growth. 6. Professional growth. 7. Finance. 8. Home 9. Creativity, hobbies. 10. Leisure.

Each person, of course, will have their own list of goals for the year. Some will focus on the financial sector, others on health, etc. But it's best if you try to make the list as balanced as possible. That is, if you understand that, for example, you have more health problems, then the main attention will need to be paid to this category. Therefore, there may be a little more goals here than in other categories.

You can write goals not in all categories, but only in some; you can write 2-3 goals, or you can write at least 20-30 goals in each category. This is your plan. The main thing to remember is that you are not writing a list for the sake of a list, but in order to more clearly specify what you are going to do next year and make efforts to achieve your goals. And the list will be your guide and reminder.

Humans are fundamentally different from animals

Evolution

Animals are a direct product of the environment. They react to external circumstances and adapt to them, thus changing over time. The process of their evolution is slow and random.

Humanity is an indirect product of the environment. Although it is the means by which people have adapted and changed, our personal choices largely determine the environment. This is the fundamental difference between a person and an animal.

We decide the direction and strength of personal evolution by intelligently designing the environment around us.

You are the sum of the five people you spend the most time with. You are what you do. Your life can be measured: it is directly proportional to the importance of the problem you are trying to solve. So choose wisely.

Adaptation

Psychological research shows that the fear of anticipation is almost always perceived worse than the actual experience.

It always amuses me when people say things like, “You have three adopted children and you were able to get a PhD in Philosophy? I could never do that." Or: “I will never be able to get over the death of a loved one.” The fact is that they can. If their loved ones died or if they had to do something difficult (we all face difficulties), they would find new strength, solve problems and surprise themselves. Of course, sometimes life brings suffering. But we get through them, becoming stronger and, hopefully, smarter than we were before.

I recently met a woman who has 17 children, eight of her own and nine adopted. She raises them with her husband. This may seem strange to you. But if you want, you can handle it just as well. By the way, their family is thriving, not just surviving.

No matter what difficulty we face, we can adapt to anything.

We can bear much more than we think. So when it comes to goal setting, we deliberately prepare for something extremely difficult.

While most people seek the path of least resistance and thus become accustomed to ease and ease, you should seek out challenges and difficulties. To give an example: trees that begin to grow in windy, force-demanding circumstances are forced to send their roots as deep as possible and therefore become invulnerable to the environment.

Call to action

Don't avoid problems. Look for and meet them. You will grow more as a person if you solve more problems.

Your strength lies in your ability to go beyond the banal.

A man is rich in proportion to the amount of things he can afford to leave alone.

Henry David Thoreau

American writer, thinker, naturalist

I recently spent Christmas in Omaha with my in-laws. I have always been inspired by their lives and characters.

My father-in-law is a very smart and successful man. He is one of those people who can do whatever comes into his head. He never gives up and always figures out how to do what he is trying to do.

But what strikes me most is his complete disregard for what most people value. Despite the fact that he is a millionaire, he and his wife live in a small apartment. He doesn't wear fancy clothes or drive expensive cars. He doesn't care about appearance. He doesn't care at all what impression he makes on other people.

But it is difficult to meet a more hardworking and more sincere person. He lives happily by his beliefs, spends time with his family, and works hard every day.

Call to action

Free yourself from the need to purchase more and more things. Keeping what you have is always better than wasting it. Free yourself from worrying about what people might think of you.

1 unique personality development system
3 important questions for awareness

7 areas for creating a harmonious life

21 vectors for effective development

Read a book

Only after a couple of years of my own development in various areas, I came to the conclusion that there are areas of activity that allow most people to change their lives for the better. I called them growth vectors - this is an effective direction of development that allows a person to grow and develop as much as possible as an individual through high-quality development of the vector itself. As a result, the totality of all vectors has become a kind of plan for self-improvement!

Now my development system includes 7 areas of life.

I included 7 more vectors in each sphere!

7 spheres * 7 vectors = 49 growth vectors!

Imagine your own funeral

This task may seem gloomy and extremely unpleasant, but its completion is necessary for a person to understand the value of his own life, and to clearly imagine what kind of trace he wants to leave behind. Don't take these questions as a bad omen.

  1. Imagine being at your own funeral. Recommend something to yourself in the present tense from this perceptual position.
  2. What will your loved ones, relatives, friends, colleagues and acquaintances say as a farewell word? How will they describe you and your achievements in various areas of life?
  3. What would you like to hear from them?

After re-reading your own answers to the questions, draw conclusions that will help you improve the quality of your life and appreciate today. When faced with death, even mentally, a person experiences a powerful surge of life.
