anish bhanwala,

I do not have one as I found the 'life-long-mission' thing is very uncertain and challenging to follow. That doesn't mean that, I do not have dreams. I have dreams, wish, ideas but nothing for a very longer stretch.

I try to keep my goals shorter as much as possible and found it has advantages:

• I have many goals to work with. Even if few fails, some are there to successes. Hence a healthy ratio to continue.
• Shorter goals give opportunity to alter then(both the goal objectives and deadline) when situation arises.
• Uncertainty doesn't become a key influencer for shorter goals.

But that's me and I am sure, many may not agree with it.

Another area I realized is important is, planning for your goals. Be it short, long or whatever size, without a plan to follow them is of no use. In fact it is waste of time in making those goals. I also believe, it is the most difficult part. How to keep you motivated and follow it regularly.

Here is what I do(again same medicine may not work for all):

• My goals are not the P0 priority in my life. Life, Family, Health etc, come first. Hence failing in achieving some do not give immense stress.
• I put some plans in tools(notion is a good tool) and it helps me in following it to a good limit.
• I do not have a goal if I am not sure of the possible outcome of it. Better not to chase the dark. Once you know the possible outcome, it should be a motivating factors to follow.

Sorry for a long answer but, as you have asked a great question, I couldn't limit in few lines! Thanks for asking.
