Goal Setting

You ever feel like your life may be languishing in mediocrity?...are ya'll getting somewhere...or are you muddling about in the same position?...needs to improve what is 'the meaning of life'...there is a cure...so, trust the Horse...and set up some goals...yea, Goal Setting...

Now in our advanced years, it becomes a tad bit harder...as the opportunities may have dwindled...you probably have your home, car, your mate, well, family, and your lot in life...already...and the HOME is not too far away...so, knowing that, get ON with it, kids...

If you are still a youngin', the steps may have MANY more to them...but, as I see it...these are the ones to establish...take these and adjust...to YOUR situation...with no particular order...

1.   Make more money....what?...but I'm on a fixed income...you see, your choices increase with the scratch you have...yes, so mine is more of a dream...hit the Pick 6...ah ha...or the lottery...one of them...keep it simple...do not invest a whole lot...and keep the aspiration alive...

2.  Travel more...hmmm, refer to number 1...find ways to get out and about...see what you have always wanted to...sometimes, a change of scenery can be very invigorating...

3.  Simplify your life...yea, this is a HUGE deal...get rid of nonsensical things you have accumulated in your vast years of living...what was good 20 years ago, probably has no value nowadays...you think when you go to the HOME, your kids will want what you have accrued?...hardly...like in our case, we moved our lot into a condo...the amount of stuff we had...

4.  Be nice...seems simple enough...but, go out of your normality and smile at more people...pass the smile on...listen more and speak less...are you one of those, who tell your whole life to?...try this, 'what's been going on?'...

5.  READ...learn...everywhere...books, newspapers, and magazines...well, OK, even your comic books...find out what others have got to say...whether it is fiction or non-fiction...it is amazing the stories that are out there...especially the Crazy Horse blog...hey, kids, this is BIG...

6.  Lose weight...egads...the hardest of all the goals...you lose energy...as you age...so you have to do more to weigh less...and do more of the right things...my bugaboo...

7.  Work out...see number 6...kinda goes hand in hand...the Horse has been walking the course...a nice step...but, get in the workout area, is the next....

8.  Get political...oh my...listen, kids...as you become an elder...this is real important...to pass on your knowledge to the youngins...this may be a stretch...but find other elders, that can do just that...that lead the city you are in...and even, the country, too...like the youngins, VOTE...

9.  Listen to music...makes no diff how...whether it's the radio, pixels, car radio, cd's, or vinyl...or cassettes or 8 tracks...whatever...nothing calms the soul like tunes...nothing...makes your mind happy, too...

10.  Find your happy place...this is an ongoing goal...where are you the happiest?...wherever...find it...maybe this is the ultimate one...

OK, I have given thoughts for you to ponder...maybe this is what you do already...if not, this is the starting point...thanks for READING and I hope YOUR day is brilliant...
