I have a Big Audacious Goal, and it has nothing to do with writing. This goal is for walking, and walking like I used to.
My husband thinks my BAG is too big, because what I’d really like to do is walk up to Grey’s Truck Stop for lunch. That’s eight miles round trip. I am a long way from there — a long way. Right now, my dizziness and lack of stamina gets me one time around the block.
SMART goals — the “R” stands for realistic, and my goal is not at the present moment realistic. Making it realistic would mean cutting down the distance to goal. So maybe a more realistic goal would be walking a mile, or even a half mile.
But one mile is not a Big or Audacious goal. Richard agrees on this, which means he finally understands BAGs. So the BAG is to Gray’s and back, and there will be all sorts of intermediary goals, such as twice around the block and so on.
Now all I have to do is start consistently walking around the block.
