Any good books on goal setting?
I’m a 51 years old medical professional that has it almost all.
My life is good. Got a good job, money, friends, etc. My life is “set”
I’ve always been a goal oriented person and lately I have none.
Life is boring and “automatic”.
Are there any good books on goal setting? Or how to deal with my goal setting behavior?
Is it normal for a man to want to have goals? I usually look towards short term goals in the 3-6 months range.

Comments on Any good books on goal setting?
You are in mid-life and this is where men and women seem to want to revamp their lives or do something extra-ordinary. I personally do not like nor do I watch Phillip McGraw’s TV shows, but his books are excellent. The first one I would recommend to you is “Self Matters” or Cheryl Richardsons ” Stand up for your Life”. Both are excellent reading and I think you will have a knew outlook and set some goals when you are finished. You may very well be pleasantly surprised too. Take care and good mental health
True Self Satisfaction; comes from the ability to look at existing personal achievements, As for me creativity beyond my career and the acquisition of money was most rewarding, to combat the desire of accomplishment I built my own home By hand and also built my own 40′ cabin cruiser. And every time i go out and look at my home or take that boat out and recieve positive comment of others. I feel accomplished. no book on a shelf could ever replace that!
