"In the absence of clearly-defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it." – Robert Heinlein

Reading this quote reminded me of something I struggle with every day. By not clearly defining what I should be working on during a given day, I get bogged down in “checking” things.

Checking email.

Checking voice mail.

Responding to whatever pops up in front of me.

By not clearly defining my goals I end up performing daily trivia instead of working towards something more meaningful.

Do you struggle with this as well?

Let’s all make a better effort today to focus on the important. To setting some goals and getting them accomplished.

Make it a great day.
