Create a Value & Passion List!

In my book #Create, I stress the importance of setting goals both personally and in business so we can set tasks to help us achieve our goals. But more important than setting goals is understanding why they are important to us.

The first step in determining our goals is writing what I like to call a “value and passion list”. What do you value most? What are you passionate about? What makes you tick? This isn't something you should have to think about too hard. If you are truly passionate about something, you should know it instantly. Go with your instinct and limit the list to 10 items in the #Create Planner included in the book.

Here is my list of values:

Time spent with family

Friendships

Financial security

Food & travel

Reading & writing

Creativity

Sharing knowledge

Learning new things

Yoga

Living a life of meaning.

Did you complete yours? Congratulations! Now you can use your list to start laying out your long-term and short-term goals.
