I’ve been reading a book recommended by my therapist entitled, The One Thing, and it was written by a local Realtor. In Texas everyone has heard of the Realty company, Keller-Williams, but I didn’t realize Gary Keller had a writer in him. Now, granted, he shares a lot about business and leadership, but there’s this one section I want to share about goal setting that’s pure genius!

Based on my someday goal, what's the ONE thing I can do in the next five years to be on track to achieve it? Now, based on my 5-year goal, what's the ONE thing I can do this year to be on track to achieve my 5-year goal, so that I'm on track to achieve my someday goal? Now, based on my goal this year, what the ONE thing I can do this month so I'm on track to achieve my goal this year, so I'm on track to achieve my 5-year goal, so I'm on track to achieve my someday goal? Now, based on my goal this month, what's the ONE thing I can do this week so I'm on track to achieve my goal this month, so I'm on track to achieve my goal this year, so I'm on track to achieve my 5-year goal, so I'm on track to achieve my someday goal? Now, based on my goal this week, what's the ONE thing I can do today, so I'm on track to achieve my goal this week, so I'm on track to achieve my goal this month, so I'm on track to achieve my goal this year, so I'm on track to achieve my 5-year goal, so I'm on track to achieve my someday goal? So, based on my goal today, what's the ONE thing I can do right NOW, so I'm on track to achieve my goal today, so I'm on track to achieve my goal this week, so I'm on track to achieve my goal this month, so I'm on track to achieve my goal this year, so I'm on track to achieve my 5-year goal, so I'm on track to achieve my someday goal? 

Do you think about someday? I do, and I love a 5-year plan. Gary recommends reading this out loud because, “You’re training your mind how to think, how to connect one goal with the next over time until you know the most important thing you must do right NOW. You’re learning how to think big-but go small”, Gary Keller.

The most important thing I can do right now, is share this with you. Share your thoughts in the comments. I’d love to hear about your someday.
