You need a philosophy before goals

Larry Janesky: Think Daily

This post is around a comment by subscriber Willis Ponds.  He put it better than I did when talking about the futility of very long-term planning.  When thinking about what your life (or business) will look like in five years, ten years, or longer, you can’t help but make many assumptions.  In an unpredictable fluid world, you will much more than likely be wrong.

Instead, Willis tells us, you need a philosophy for living.  Then strive to live by it and take opportunities as they come.  When presented with a choice, follow the paths you love.

Philosophy.  Jim Rohn talked about it a lot.  

What is your philosophy for your life?  Good question.  I bet you never thought about it that way.  Tomorrow I will try to express mine for you.

Thank you Larry! I’m glad my comments proved useful.
