The following examples fail the test:
a. If one of my goals is to be the embodiment of good health with no money, it is quite
obvious that it will be hard to survive. That means it is not consistent with my other
goals.
b. A person could make all the money in the world, yet if he loses his family and health, it
is not worth it, is it?
c. A person could make a million dollars by selling drugs but then for the rest of his life,
he would be running from the law. It would take away his peace of mind. And this kind
of behavior would not be fair to all concerned nor will it give him goodwill.
Each goal must be evaluated by putting it to the test and all goals must be in congruence.
Goals without action are empty dreams. Actions turn dreams into goals. Even if we miss
our goals, it does not make us a failure. Delay does not mean defeat. It only means one
has to replan to accomplish one's target.
Just like a camera needs focus to take a good picture, we need goals to make a
productive life.
