Life Goals, part 1

I have been thinking a lot about life goals lately since reading Little Ms. Bossy’s Ultimate To-Do List in the next 10 years and a recent Zen Habits post about people’s 3 life goals.

I haven’t come up with even 3 but this is one main one for sure.

I want to create and grow a family and home where my kids want to come back and visit when they are older with their kids. I want them to always feel comfortable and welcome to come back home instead of feeling obligated, forced and burdened. I want them to be close to their parents where we all talk openly and want their own kids to know their grandparents. I just want them to be comfortable and don’t want them to leave home at 18 and never want to come back. I just hope I don’t screw them up and scare them off! Really.

Have any life goals decided yet? Please share.

Very good comprehensive goal. I don’t see any reason why you wouldn’t accomplish it, but then I am having trouble accomplishing that myself. hope you are more successful.
