Gaining perspective in life

We talk a lot about goal setting in our district. 

We have district goals.

I have Superintendent goals.

We encourage our teachers to establish learning goals.

Another way to look at goals is captured by Candy Chang in her talk about "Before i die I want to . . ."

I like goals.

Goals help me focus.

This TED talk gives me an important perspective on goals. Perspective is important in life. Focusing on things that matter, things that make a difference, things that will bring joy to my life will in turn provide others the opportunity to gain perspective as well.
