What if you are ok with your mediocre life and where are your efforts?

A friend just shared this article on Facebook.  The original blog can be found here.

This article resonated with me so much.  Even with my own business, I'm not out after millions - I just want to be able to enjoy life.

I'm ok with working my business and making money.  Sometimes I wish I had the ambition to be more motivated to make more money, but will working harder make me happier?

Sometimes, I think "I wish I did this or that like so and so," but then is it just falling into peer pressure and is their life really that happy?

I'm terrible at making goals - I'm more of a person of this is what I want to do right now.  Of course there are some things that require "goal setting," but I consider them planning.  Like trips.  Usually you have to plan for them right?

You know all of those "how to save money" tips?  Doesn't apply to me.  Saving money has always been easy for me.  Maybe because I grew up around it?  I really thing that has something to do with if you are made for "goal setting" or not. 

Our family never did any kind of goal setting - at least that I saw.  We just lived life day in and day out.  Planning was for trips or get-togethers, things like that.

I am ok with my mediocre life.

This is another great article that came across my Facebook feed today.  Follow your effort and not your passion.

I guess that's why my effort is at the computer, helping others in their business.  I'm good at it and I enjoy it. Like the article says, start small and that's where I am now - even after 5 years in the business, but I know that my network of clients and referrals know I'm good.  And going back to the first part of this, I'm ok with staying small.

Obviously, these were two things I needed to hear and blog about today.  Hopefully, I'll do more of this....Of course, no goal setting or planning for this!
