Goal setting is central to success; it focuses your energy and guides your behaviour as you work to achieve each goal.

Setting a goal way in the distant future may seem futile, but by just knowing that the goal is up ahead, you are more likely to keep moving torward it.

For example, if you set a goal to walk five kilometres or ride a bike up a mountain when you are 100, you have created needed motivation to keep you going. Don’t forget to write it down and tell someone about it, so that you make yourself accountable to yourself and someone else, which will greatly assist in your achieving it.

One of my own life goals is to complete an Olympic distance triathlon (1.5 km swim, 40 km bike, 10 km run) when I am 75. I don’t run much anymore but I fully intend to complete that triathlon even if I have to walk the run section.

My 100 year goal is to swim 500 metres in the ocean and walk two kilometres on the beach.

What’s yours?
