I hope that nobody thought that I was talking about
using a broom.No, the sweep I’m referring to is the word
I use to represent these five goals :

1. sleep
2. work
3. exercise
4. eat
5. pray(plan)

I know that I will have other things to get done.However,
these are high priority.If I don’t do these daily,I can’t expect
to be at my best.Also,my body won’t perform the way that
it should.Before you know it,life has happened,and you are
still wondering why. I’ve learned,when I really want to get
something done. I need to turn it into a goal.
This is my definition of a goal for me is :

1. it has to be my goal ( I have to claim it as mine)

2. it has to be specific ( it needs to be definite;don’t generalize)

3. it has to have a budget (always include money)

4. it has to be desirable ( I have to want to do it )

5. I must understand it (what I’m trying to do )

6. it should be achievable (within my abilities)

7. it has to be believable ( I need to believe that I can do it)

8. it must be measurable (someoneelse can tell that I finished it)

9. it must have a deadline ( a date to be done )

10. NO EXCUSES ( NO EXCUSES! )

- If it doesn’t include all ten of these points,then it’s just
something I wished would happen or something that I
hoped to accomplish (but it never reached goal status).
