The Big Picture

What did you do this morning before attending to your daily career path?

Where are you on your long term plans? What about mid term? What about for the year? Have you met your mid year goals yet?

Most likely, you were more concerned with what to wear TODAY. What phone calls and emails had to be completed TODAY. Maybe some personal business which needed to be completed TODAY?

Take some time first thing every morning and focus on next year, ten years, twenty. Focus on the big picture. Don't worry about the details, rather, think only about the long term plan.

What do you want to do? Where do you want to be? When will you make your next big move? Will you be ready to move now? How about in one year? Five years? If the promotion came at 9:01 this morning, will you be ready to relocate? What about in six months? When do you start your own company? Do you have a business plan?

The dry cleaning and bills can wait 15 minutes while you get back on track with the big picture. Widen the angle and focus. TODAY.
