I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it.

Loaded goals

A loaded goal is a goal that means something to you, that connects to a deep purpose. An empty goal is a goal that sounds good but that you’re not really connected to or invested in.

Empty goals are nothing more than wishes and momentary impulses. Loaded goals are the ones you’ll do whatever is necessary to reach.

When your reasons to take action outweigh your excuses for staying put, you’ll find yourself moving forward. When your yearning for success is more powerful than the desire to stay within your comfort zone, you’ll make that success happen.

If you’re hesitant to take action, the reward is not meaningful enough. Connect authentic purpose to your goals, and you’ll find ways to achieve those goals.

Get completely clear about why, and enable yourself to figure out how. Let go of the need to need, embrace the power of purpose, and transform your time and energy into goodness and value.

Set goals that are loaded with meaning, with purpose, with love and great potential for fulfillment. Raise yourself and your world to higher and higher levels of living as you work to bring those loaded goals to life.

— Ralph Marston
