First and foremost, thank you for visiting my new blog. Welcome and please feel free to be make yourself comfortable. We have not finished with the setup of the blog yet, but I thought I would like to post a quick one to update what is going to happen in the next few months.

Life Goals is setup to share tips and recommendations on essential life skills, like personal goal setting and time management. Everyday, we are so stretched out, attending to everything, answering phone calls, making time for the family, rushing to work and rushing back .. and we frequently forget what we want to do.

When you were a small child, did you have ambitions ? Did you want to be a fireman, a doctor or a nurse or maybe a super hero ? What happened to your passion ?

When I take the train everyday, I see the morning rush hour crowd squeezing into the train and trying to get to work and all of them look exhausted and tired and basically “Its not weekend yet” kind of mood. Are you like that ?

Major events are happening in the world like the current devastation in Myanmar, where over 22000 people are already confirmed dead and over 40000 people are missing. The cyclone survivors there are running out of food and fresh water. With the people’s homes destroyed and lack of funding from the community, the country is scrambling to pull its resources together. Do some of us keep ourselves updated on what’s happening in the world and see the bigger picture and appreciate our lives more ?

With the current slowing down of the U.S economy and the financial crisis that is happening in the major parts of the world, it is important to keep our heads high and ride it out. Someone once told me, everything that goes up must come down, inversely, those things that go down usually will come up again. Hence, we will need a guide light to show us that there’s really a light at the end of the tunnel. How do we have this guide light ? We can get the skills needed to set personal goals on what we really should be doing and manage our time to do what we want to do and still have time for ourselves. Sounds difficult ? Not really, it just sounds more difficult then it really is.

This blog will be a discussion point for us to share our experiences in our daily lives. I will be sharing some of the concepts on various life skills so we can all try it out and hopefully we can all benefit from it all and ride out the current storm that is happening.

If you thought that you have never set a goal in your life or have no idea where to start, don’t fret. This blog is here to help you get your skills and sharpen it so that you can see benefits when you start applying those skills to your life, in all parts of your everyday routine.

We hope that you will find this blog useful and will contribute whenever possible. We are always interested to know what you think.
