Happy Ganesh Chaturthi,
Life is a long journey. It is like a big box of mixed candies- some sweet, some sugary, some bitter and some sour. You never know what’s in your share on any given day. So stay calm, be positive, count your blessings, accept what is, do your best. Every morning, pray to the Lord, put your hand on your heart and remind yourself, All is Well. God Bless.
Run by my side;
Live in my heartbeat;
Give strength to my steps.
As the cold surrounds;
As the wind pushes me;
I know you surround me.
As the sun warms me;
As the rain cleanses me;
I know you are touching me.
Challenging me, loving me;
And so I give you this run.
Thank you for watching my stride.

Setting Goals In All Areas of Life
Life has many facets. For a meaningful, happy, balanced and prosperous life, we should set goals in all of these areas.
In this video, I shall share with you, the different areas of our life in which we can set Goals.
– Personal Goals
– Professional Goals
– Financial Goals
– Family Goals
– Health Goals
– Fun, Recreation Goals
– Spiritual Goals
– Social Goals
Personal goals are about what we want for ourselves – that which is important to us and gives us satisfaction, happiness and builds positivity. As compared to goals in other areas of life, we can enjoy the greatest control on the achievement of our personal goals, as it is directly the outcome of our actions and priorities.
We spend most of our most waking hours working for our careers, businesses and jobs This defines our occupation and profession, and is also the means of our livelihood. It provides us the opportunity to put to use our education, knowledge, skills and show case our talents. Setting professional goals is critical as it is through working that we achieve professional growth, build a reputation, get recognition, and above all, earn money, which supports our financial goals. For Home makers, planning and executing home matters can be equally significant professional goals.
Setting financial goals, provides clarity on the means by which we can fulfill our personal and family, needs and wants, for which money is required. Our financial goals could be earning and saving a specific amount of money by a given date for a specific purpose. For some, their financial goal could be putting together, the money needed for buying a house, through their income, reserves, or by borrowing. For others, financial goals could be repaying a loan. Financial freedom can only be achieved by setting goals and taking timely actions on financial goals.
Each of us has many roles to play for our family – starting with being a daughter or son, a sister or brother, a cousin, a spouse, a parent, a grand- parent. Giving our best in each of these roles requires us to set goals.
The most important and yet in many cases the most neglected aspect of our lives is our health. We tend to take our health and well being for granted until we are confronted with a symptom of bad health, or a medical emergency. And from there on, it is only about trying to get back what we have lost.
It’s important that to make the most out of the free time from work, to rejuvenate and energize yourself. Planning for your fun and recreation goals allows to set time and money for their fulfillment.
Knowing our spiritual goals helps us to reflect on the things that really matter to us, our purpose in life, our values, our beliefs. These goals are about connecting with our inner self. Spirituality could mean different things to different people. for some it could be practicing their religion, for others it could be about experiencing peace from visiting places of worship, for some it could be meditation, or practicing silence each day.
We have commitments and roles to play outside of our family. It could be playing an active role in the school PTA, or in the housing society that we live in. It could be our commitments to our friends or the responsibilities to the community that we are a part of. It could making contributions to the well being, education and career of children without families. Defining our social goals will allow us to block time or utilize our free time, for our social commitments.
I hope that this video would have inspired to set your goals…NOW
Goal setting has changed my life for the good. It has the power to change yours.

Set Goals. Make the positive difference to your life.
My name is Jayesh Tekchandaney, A Chemical Engineer by Qualification and Profession, A business owner by Occupation, Author, Speaker and Coach at Heart. My purpose in life is to touch, move, inspire and make a positive difference to people lives by sharing the good things and positivity that I have learned and been blessed with.
The one thing that has made a big difference to my life is the habit of Setting Goals. And today, I shall share with you, how to write your goals. Because writing your goals makes them real, it gives them a physical form, it provides you with direction and allows you to focus on what is important.
As an example, Let’s start with some of my goals My personal and professional goal is to write a book, related to my field of work. The way I would write my goal is… I have written a book on the subject of Industrial mixing. The book is published by John Wiley Publications by December 31, 2017.
As I mentioned earlier, my personal goal is to make a positive difference to people’s lives. For that, I would write my goal as I speak at conferences, seminars organisations, schools, and colleges inspiring people to set goals, and working for their achievement.
1. Make sure you write your goals as if your goal had already been achieved, e.g. I have written…., I speak. This is because the subconscious mind has to given a command in the present and made to believe that you are on the road to accomplishing your goals.
2. Write you goals in the personal tense. All of your goals should start with the word I. The I should be followed by an action verb.
I speak at conferences…
3. While writing goals, we need to set ourselves a deadline for achievement of the goal. In my case, it is the book being published by December 31, 2017. Setting a date, motivates us to block time, and take action towards achievement of our goals.
4. Also, Write your goals in the positive sense. For example, if your goal is to stop being lazy and begin to work hard, Instead of saying, I am not lazy, write, I am hardworking.
“Everything is Hard before it is easy,” said Goethe, the German philosopher. Setting Goals, writing them and seeing them manifest is easy when you choose to take action. I have been blessed and have experienced the joy of accomplishing many of my goals by following the goal setting process. My goal on the book being published is already achieved. And I continue to speak passionately about goal setting to those around me.

Goals give a sense of meaning and purpose to our life. Goal setting, along with careful planning provides a sense of direction to keep us focused on what we want and to work towards its achievement.
Our life has many facets – all of these can be classified in 6 major areas; personal, professional, spiritual, physical and mental, family and social, financial. For a meaningful and successful life, we should set goals in all of these areas.
Goals to me are SMART dreams. By SMART, we me Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time Bound. A goal has be specific, it has to be clearly defined. A goal has to be quantifiable – something that can be measured, it has to be achievable and attainable within a lifetime, it has to be realistic – something that can be experienced in reality. Above all, the goal is a dream with a deadline for achievement. It is time bound.
Written goals are the seedbeds of accomplishment. The important thing while setting goals is that you need to write them, because writing your goals forces you to crystallize and clarify your thinking. It is said that the human mind has more than 4,000 thoughts each days. Writing down the thoughts which matter, helps you focus on what is necessary and keeps you on course. Written goals form the basis of measuring progress. Written goals produce motivation. Written goals form the basis of an action plan. Above all, written goals stimulate visualization.
Often people set goals, but don’t achieve them. This is because they don’t take the action required to achieve to goals. The most important aspect of achieving your goals is taking action, with enthusiasm. Having set your goals, you need to create an action plan for their achievement.
Setting goals has changed my life and the lives of many around the world. It will change yours as well.
“Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon, must inevitably come to pass.” – Paul Meyer
“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.”- Steve Jobs
