PICK YOUR TOP 5 GOALS 

Review each of your 25 goals above and circle the top five that are most impor tant tant to you. I know this isn’t  easy but it’s  necessary. Here’s  the simple way to do it.  1. 

Look at the first goal you listed above. Put a “one” next to it. Now compare the first  goal with the second one. If the first one is more important that the second one, then move on to the third one and compare that to the first. Keep going down the list until you find one that is more important than the first (if you go through the whole list without finding one then the first one is your #1  #1   Priority).  Priority).  2. Once you find one that’s more important than the first, cross out the “one”  next to the first and put a “one” next to the goal that’s more important.  3. Continue down the the list comparing each goal with your new #1. Go to the end of the list  beginni inning ng unti untill you have compared every other goal and start to your newagain #1.  from the  beg #1.  4. Once you’ve compared one goal to everything on the list, and it’s still #1, you   priority. rity. Circle it.  have found your top  prio 5.

List your remaining twenty goals  below. Are you committed to not doing any of these until your Top 5 are complete? If not then why? Perhaps you need to go back through Step Two above. above.   Hint: If you have things on this list that are still important (and I’m sure you do), then  perhaps  perha ps just  plan to get to them later in the year once you’ve  gotten through one or two of your your Top 5.
