When you ask an elderly retired person what they would have changed in their life, you probably would not be surprised that no one would answer, “I wish I would have worked more.” Instead you will get answers like these:
- I wish I had spent more time with my family.
- I wish I had managed my money better.
- I wish I had taken better care of my health.
- I wish I had given more to others.
Hopefully, you have created your new year’s resolutions. Look at them and ask yourself are you on the path to be able to look back when you retire and know you have no regrets? There is no perfect time to change direction and align your plan to meet your bigger purpose. But best time is now.
This week’s challenge is to review your resolutions, and adjust them to make sure they are aligned to your long term personal goals, not just a short term objective. Try to make everything on your list help you achieve no regrets.
