Balance in life. Now that's a goal worth striving for.

1. How many of us actually set goals?
2. How many of us write those goals down and track our acheivements against them?

Not many people do #1, but it's been proven that #2 will increase your success rate exponentially.

So, I'll cut right to the chase..... write down goals that force you to have balance in your life.

If work is consuming you, set goals to do things with your spouse and friends. If your obsession is TV or the computer, set goals (and write them down) that force you to get out of that chair/couch and out of that rut.

Don't be obsessed with the negativity of this election mayhem. Step back, be grateful for what you do have, and strive for balance. It's work, but it's well worth it.
