Where do you want to be in 10 years?
Tommy and I use "10 years" as our frame a lot when dreaming. It's a realistic amount of time for us to be established in where we'd love to be.
We want a 2+ acre farm complete with organic garden, composting, chicken coops, bees, a goat, greenhouse, and fruit trees. We want a old small house full of half a dozen kids, thrift store and garage sale furniture and clothing, and homemade soaps, detergents, clean products, and the like. We want our emergency fund in the bank, over halfway done paying off our house payment, and be generating income from our homestead farming. We want to have our home completely medication free and fully relying on homeopathic remedies.
Dreams...
That sounds beautifu, peaceful and 100% doable. I love to dream as well. Sometimes I get stuck in "5 years time" but I agree with you that 10 years is more realistic and provides you with a better aspect. Happy dreaming (and doing). <3
ReplyDeleteI think it's important to have a combination of short term AND long term dreams! It gives you the opportunity to feel like your are accomplishing some but still drives you to continue working.
