Your task, on Day 17 of the 28 Days of Abundant Practice Challenge, is to brainstorm your five-year goals.

You’re making progress right?  But how much?  Are you moving towards the future you envisage for yourself and your loved ones?   Have you given enough thought to where you want to be and what you want to be doing in the future?

So, how to plan for the next 5 years?  The first step is to do some brainstorming around your personal, relationship, professional and financial goals.  See what comes up when you allow yourself to think about your ideal life.

This exercise is really important because you might find that what you want for the next five years isn’t going to happen unless you make some changes.

Do you –

  • still want to be in the same job role or business?
  • like the way your organization, business or even the country you’re in is going?
  • want to take on an elderly family member or have more children?
  • want to move nearer to the school you want your children to attend?
  • need to completely renovate your home?

Whatever comes up for you, write it down and keep it safe because you’ll need to refer to it again to create a structured (but simple) plan.

At the end of the year, you’ll be able to check your progress and make any necessary adjustments.

Have you done this process before?  If yes, great!!  Have you made progress?  If you haven’t done this before, is there anything about this process that’s off-putting?  Leave a comment below.
