Where Do You Want to Be Five Years From Now?

Do you want to be thinner? wealthier? successful in business?

Whatever your answer was to the question, consider this. Set your goals and start living as if you already have reached your goal.

You won't be able to make every change at once, but base your decisions on what you want to see looking back at you when you look in the mirror - five years from now.

I recently picked up this advice at a small business seminar, in relation to running a small business, and I began thinking how it really is pretty good advice for pretty much any part of life.

Whatever your goal is, you're not going to achieve it by wishing. It's going to take action, and if you base each step on the life you want, well, you're headed in the right direction.
