365QOD- Day1254

Hitting a Purposeful Target
“Fire, Ready Aim.”- a different thought process
Jacqueline Whitmore’s fourth observation is: Remember Your Purpose.
Our life long purpose is very difficult to find.  Daily purpose is much easier.  Often time our daily purpose is reflected in the tasks we accomplish.  Unfortunately, as the quote notes, we tend to fire first and plan later more than the ready, aim, fire we should be following.
I am not saying that ready, fire, aim is bad.  It eliminates paralyses by focusing on the action that needs to be done and not getting stuck in the “thinking” process.  Sometimes this is just what the doctor ordered to get us out of rut and force us to move towards a target.  It requires us to trust ourselves that we can figure it out as we move towards the target.
But we should daily check to see how many of our accomplished tasks align with that life purpose.  This is critical to review and make sure that in the end we will arrive at or close to our target goal.
Today’s question is:
“How do you keep your life and daily purpose aligned?
