How do you know when you are successful and how do you know when you can stop working towards your happiness?

This is a question Gordon is often asked and in this episode, he discusses why it’s vital to understand what makes you happy and the importance of goals and objectives in achieving your happiness.

It’s a natural process to look towards the next step when you achieve your goals but you also need to make sure that you understand what brings you happiness so that your goals and objectives are always about living a life that makes you happy.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• As we progress through life and achieve things we look towards achieving the next thing
• It’s important not to take on too much, focus on completing a goal before moving on to the next one
• If you are able to achieve your goals you are attracted towards achieving more
• Once you have achieved one thing you naturally look towards the next step and you need to set the next goal to bring new challenges
• Happiness is usually tied to achieving things and is why we are always looking towards the next goal
• Look at life as a series of goals and challenges and as you move through the different phases of life what happiness means to you will change
• If you stop setting yourself goals and come to a stop you may lose sight of what brings you happiness
• Living the dream is a lifestyle and being happy and living the life you love has to be worked on
• You need to understand what makes you happy and align your goals and objectives with this
• Set regular review points throughout the year to keep on track with your life
• Everything you do should align with your goals
