Goal-Free Living in The Costco Connection

Today, the December issue of The Costco Connection is out. I was asked to take part in a debate on whether people should make New Year’s Resolutions. Guess which side I took. If you guessed “no” — the obvious answer — you are wrong. I was asked by the magazine’s editor to take the “yes” position. So I did…gladly.

I am not against resolutions. I am against goal-based resolutions. Myopic, specific, destination-oriented resolutions. Instead, people should set “themes.” Broad, empowering, one-word resolutions. Being goal-free is different than being goal-less. Goal-free means having a sense of direction — not a destination — and then playing full out meandering with purpose. Your theme is your direction. Your compass for living passionately in the New Year.

Read all about it in the December The Costco Connection.
