A major milestone is not your ultimate purpose, but a specific measurement along the way that is something major you would like to accomplish. 

Before you spend your time, money and energy…and perhaps years of your life…working towards a major milestone, make sure that it meets the following criteria:

Is it part of your Life Mission? Does it enhance your purpose, equip you better for that purpose, or otherwise allow you to fulfill your greatest goals in life?

Is it realistically possible?

How will you know when you achieve it?

Does it violate any of your values?

“I don’t care how much power, brilliance or energy you have, if you don’t harness it and focus it on a specific target, and hold it there you’re never going to accomplish as much as your ability warrants.” Zig Ziglar
