[[:encoded, "Today we are going to talk about How to Make the Right Choice in 3 Simple Steps.\n\nYou’ve been making choices every day since you were a child, yet sometimes it can feel like you are the most inexperienced decision-maker in the world. You feel uncertain about which choice to make and how your decision will ultimately affect your life. When faced with a decision that could alter the course of your life, how do you make the right choice?\n\nThe first step in any choice is to determine where you want to be. Getting clear on your goals will help you make choices that are in line with your vision. Once you get clear on your goals, it can be much easier to see how the results of your choices will lead you either closer to your goals – or further away.\n\nHere’s how you can learn to make the right choice in three simple steps.\n\nStep 1: Write Your List of Long-Term Goals\n\nYou may have a lot of long-term goals, but for now, just start with the ten most important to you. Once you have had time to focus on this short list, feel free to expand it to include ALL of your long-term goals. \n\nHere’s an example:\n\nMy Long-Term Goals\n1.\tHave $7,500 saved to take two vacations per year (starting 2014) to exotic places by 6/1/14.\n2.\tBuy new house with 15% down payment $90,000 by 10/1/2015\n3.\tPay off mortgage ($_______) by 12/31/2030 \n4.\t$5.2 million saved for retirement/financial future by 12/31/2021\n5.\tRetire by age 54: 2/23/2022\n6.\tSell house by 9/30/2015 \n7.\tDonate 5% of net income each year to charitable organizations that have personal meaning (Susan G. Komen Foundation and Habitat for Humanity) starting 1/1/2015\n8.\tComplete a full Ironman Triathlon in under 17 hours - 10/31/2016\n9.\tPlay golf 2 times per month starting 4/1/2013 \n10.\tImprove health and fitness-lose 25 pounds, and be at180 lbs by 7/1/2014\t\t\n11.\tRead fun books 1 per quarter starting 1/1/2013\n12.\tGet 1 massage per month starting 1/1/2014\t\n13.\tContinue to have date night with my significant other 2 times per month starting 1/15/13\n\nMy Long-Term Goals\n1.\t\n2.\t\n3.\t\n4.\t\n5.\t\n\nNow that you have identified your long-term goals, you can identify your short-term goals.
