Editor's Notes
- #21: Human beings by nature are spontaneous and playful creatures. Yet the older we become, the less appropriate it seems for us to allow it to be expressed. We get professionally serious and then pay comedians to do a job we've forgotten how to do ourselves. You will need to find your own comfort level with what works and what does not, based on the people you lead, the situation, the culture, the pressures of your industry, etc; but we invite you to work on incorporating this competency in some manner into your daily life. Studies have proven that you will live longer.
- #46: Narrow your objectives You probably won't be able to achieve every financial goal you've ever dreamed of. So identify your goals clearly and why they matter to you, and decide which are most important. By concentrating your efforts, you have a better chance of achieving what matters most. Focus first on the goals that matter To accomplish primary goals, you will often need to put desirable but less important ones on the back burner. Be prepared for conflicts Even worthy goals often conflict with one another. When faced with such a conflict, you should ask yourself questions like: Will one of the conflicting goals benefit more people than the other? Which goal will cause the greater harm if it is deferred? Put time on your side The most important ally you have in reaching your goals is time. The more time you have, the more chance you have of success. Your age is a big factor -- younger people (who have more time to build their nest egg) can invest differently than older ones.
- #47: Choose carefully Once you have your list together, you need to rank the items in order of importance Start now The longer you wait to identify and begin working toward your goals, the more difficulty you'll have reaching them. Sweat the big stuff Once you have prioritized your list of goals, keep your spending on course. Always ask yourself: "Is this taking me nearer to my primary goals -- or leading me further away from them?" If a big expense doesn't get you closer to your goals, try to defer or reduce it. Be prepared for change Your needs and desires will change as things change, so you should probably reexamine your priorities at regular intervals.
