Do you have short term and long term goals? It helps to make a list for the day when you wake up. You don’t need to accomplish them all that day or week or even that month but it helps to have goals to know where you’re going in life.
Right now I’m focusing on losing weight and remaining stable. I feel like I’m in a good place in life finally and I want to be able to sustain it for the long term.
My current goal is to publish my poetry book which I keep putting off.
My next goal would be to start a new book.
I have both short-term and long-term weight loss goals. In the short-term, I still need to lose 34 pounds. That will make 100 pounds lost. Long-term goal past that, I need to lose another 39. I plan to get to my short-term goal and then maintain that weight for three to six months before I start the next phase of weight loss.
I am going to call job hunting a long-term goal, because I am only applying for jobs where I think I could stay for years. I have only been looking for a job for about ten weeks. I have been on disability for 4 1/2 years, but now I’m stable and ready to go back to work full-time.
I’m so glad to hear you are in a good place! There is a weight loss thread under the Health and Recovery section of this site, check us out if you like. There’s quite a few of us there who are actively trying to lose.
I live day to day and that isn’t too bad. Still. I have goals. I’m with you’ll trying to lose weight and get fitter. I’m doing really well with it all and it’s something that takes a lot of energy. I have some other things in the pipeline I hope to get done. Otherwise just the usual, which for me is good structure with life!
I have a few goals. get fitter and eat healthy, become a more accomplished guitar player, stay active during the day with my garden, and set aside money for 2 years of trade school. the tuition wont be a problem, but renting an apartment will be expensive and I can’t afford it right now. o and stay on meds and stay out of the hospital.
LS! I am working on my goals. I want to improve my French, daily I take an internet lesson, I should however read a French book, Also I want to live to 80 at least, therefore I have to lose weight and work on my diabetes type two. To live longer I need to exercise more, the optimum is three hours daily. Now I exercise one hour daily, but I have decided to join a gym. The fitter and stronger you are the smaller are your chances of dying.
LS! I forgot some goals. I want to be more Buddhist and study Buddhist Art. I want to become a Buddhist oracle.
my main goal is to have no hallucinations and be mentally stable. 
I’m working on one goal it’s becoming easier since starting abilify. I want to be stable. I know I’m close. One goal was to sign up for volunteering at the local cat shelter. I’ve gone 4 days in the last two weeks. I have to walk there working on another goal losing weight.
Still working on my weight. Seeing about trying to help my financial problems by seeing if I can’t do some dog sitting, don’t know if I’ll need insurance for that, or how to go about it. I don’t want someones dog to die on me and get sued. Trying to focus on a project I’m working on, but I’m worried I’m losing motivation again. Really bummed.
Want to lose 40lbs, paint the shed, powerwash the house, mulch the flowerbeds, paint some rooms inside the house, get a larger vehicle, buy my mom some hearing aids, etc. etc.
Short term. Spending lots of time with my kiddos so they never doubt my love and they can tell me anything.
Long term. Live another 10 years.
They used to call him, “Der Bingle”. He had a great public image as a smooth, easygoing, unflappable good guy but according to one of his children as a father he was cruel, sadistic and mean to some of his children.
I have many goals. Right now the most important is i want to be good to my parents and make sure my mum gets lots of love in what will probably be her last months. I also want to take good care of my kid. And I want to build up a better social life with family and friends. I havent got many friends and i hope to change that.
And i want my house to be okay.
And to stay stable.
There is loads of other ones…healthy eating, losing weight, improving in my job, doing sports, etcetera…But i cant do everything all at once!
My goal is to have goals.

Long Term Goals:
To keep my routine I have now with activities and to be stable and take care of myself.
To save up money for a few things .
To be better socially and to make friends etc but it seems undoable at the moment.
To spend quality time with the woman I live with who raised me ,was my stepmum
etc I love her so much and to be with my sacred neigh and for her to spend the rest of her life where she is living now because it’s a great place where she can be happy.
To meet my mum and grandma again .they are overseas.
Better relationships with loved ones and make great new relationships if I can.
Start dating and meet a partner.
Possibly adopt a small dog but I can’t afford it at the moment.
Do some maintenance to improve myself.
Keep being vegan and eating well.
I want to lose at least eight kg but I’m not ready and I don’t know if I am willing to eat tiny amounts and be strict to do so.speciallyas a vegan I think it’s important to have a healthy appetite and eat well and treat oneself to ice cream and cake etc sometimes.
If I want to lose weight I would have to eat less and I’m not willing to do that at this point in time.
Connect in love with some.
I don’t have many goals at the moment because I want to be realistic about it and not expect myself to do things I can’t do.
I’m happy with my goals I have for now though.
I want to give good great 
love specially in special ways to my closest.
I want them to know they are loved by me.
I want to laugh more.
I went years without laughing and only rather recently started laughing but I don’t laugh often and I would love to be able to make myself and others laugh and to laugh together with others.
