How To Create Your Perfect Life

What would your perfect life look like?
Would you be working from a beach?
Traveling the world?
Living in a new, beautiful home?
Have time and money to pursue your hobby?
Or would it be something else?

No matter what it is, chances are you are having a hard time getting from where you are now to where you want to be.
Maybe your current life features a boss you don’t like, a job that bores you, and way too much time spent on things you don’t care about.
And from your current vantage point you can barely muster the energy to make it through the week, much less think about the big picture. You just don’t have the brain-space to fit all the puzzle pieces together and figure out what you’d really have to do to create the amazing life you dream about.

Method 1
Working Toward Your Goals

Brainstorm some goals. Setting goals can help you achieve more and improve your life.[1] Try to think of a goal that will challenge you, but is still attainable. Think about things that make you happy, then create goals around those things.Think about short-term and long-term goals, and make them measurable.

* Create goals for different areas of your life: career, romantic relationship, family, travel, fun, personal growth.
*Goals can include traveling, going to college/grad school, making dietary changes such as going vegan, or learning an     
*extreme sport, such as paragliding. Be creative! Think about the things that immediately put a smile on your face.
*If you’ve always wanted to visit the Amazon jungle, set that goal! It doesn’t matter how “far off” the goal appears.

Create attainable (SMART) goals. Make sure the goals you set can actually come true for you and are not so unrealistic that you can never reach them. Use the S.M.A.R.T. system to set goals that are attainable and motivating. If your goals are too out there (like "I want to be the first human to live on Pluto"), you can actually experience a decrease in motivation and desire for improvement. To get the most out of your goals, they should fit these criteria :

Specific: Goals should be clear and as specific as possible, and answer these questions: who is involved, what do I want to accomplish, where must this be done, when should it be performed? So, instead of "Get fit," your goal might be "Lose 15 lbs. before my vacation to Hawaii."
Measurable: You must be able to measure or quantify your goal with concrete criteria. This way you will be able to see your progress and you will know when you've met your goal. With the weight-loss goal of 15 lbs., you can track your progress pound by pound and, once you've lost those 15 lbs., you know you have achieved your goal.
Achievable/Attainable: Use your common sense to decide whether or not you can realistically meet this goal. It should require you to stretch yourself and make changes, but shouldn't be something wildly out of reach. Think about the skills and knowledge you have now and what you might need to learn in order to achieve your goal. Think about your past and whether the goal is simply a stretch or if it is unrealistic.
Relevant: Ask yourself why you want to achieve this goal, and if it will be fulfilling for you. Getting a law degree at Harvard might be achievable for you, but is this really what you want? If your passion lies with the culinary arts, maybe a better goal is to move to France for a year and learn to cook. Consider the other things going on in your life and whether they align with your goals.
Time bound: You must set an end point for your goal. It shouldn't be vague (like "by this summer") but a point that can be found on a calendar ("by June 15th"). Having a specific timeframe can give you a sense of urgency and motivate you to keep on track.
