Setting and focusing on goals – the process, the checklist – is a perfectly good way to achieve some things.

We have a choice, though, in how we approach all these goals. The approach we pick – in all kinds of things – makes the difference between a good way, and a great way.

We can run at our goals headlong. We can center all attention on what we want to get and where we want to be.

Or

We can have the goal, then drop the goal.

Rather than spend all kinds of time and energy getting into goals, now you can spend your time getting into you. Get to know everything you’ve got – in your mind, in your body – in every imaginable direction.

This requires that we be very happy with where we are right now. Rather than wanting to get the heck out of here!

Working toward goals achieves some things. Working toward you achieves greater things. This works well for athletics. It also works well for life.

This isn’t a new or shocking idea. Be here now! It’s just not what people wind up practicing – in yoga, athletic training, or in life. Until we do. And then things get really fun.
