Clearly defining what you want and feeling good about your goal gets you at least half way to the accomplishment. That’s how important it is. Yet this is the step most people drop out on. Even you probably don’t do it to the degree that you could.
It takes practice to master goal setting. And the best time to practice is now. And the best place to practice is on the little things. So, look at your life and what you’re interested in being, doing and having.
