One of my passions in life is boating. I live on a beautiful lake that is directly connected to Lake Michigan and my office looks out on the water. My home was built in 1937 by one of the leading businessmen in the area, and it’s an example of some of the finest craftsmanship from that era.

I recently purchased a new boat and installed a high tech boatlift to make my boating even more enjoyable. Since my office overlooks the lake and the boat, I opted for a remote controlled boatlift that allows me to lower my boat into the water from my office when it's time for a cruise. I simply press the button and by the time I walk to the boat everything is ready for cruising.

The person who installed the boatlift asked me how I was able to create such a perfect setup for myself. He told me that my home was one of the nicest estates he has ever seen, and he reminded me that I am on the international waterway. He said: “You can literally go anywhere in the world by boat from your backyard.”

I decided to invite my boatlift installer friend for a ride on the boat so I'd have a chance to get to know him better. As we cruised through the channel to Lake Michigan, I asked him about his goals in life. While he clearly had some vague notions of things he wanted to do, he had no real “Clarity of Intent” as I like to call it. He was obviously a very talented individual but it was apparent that he wasn’t fully engaging all of his talents and abilities.

I decided to use the boat and its electronics to get him to think about how he might develop some real plans for his life.

Any serious boater will have a few pieces of critical equipment on his boat. One of the most important pieces of equipment is a GPS or Global Positioning System. Many people now have this in their cars as well. Personally, I wouldn’t own a car without one because I’m willing to admit that I don’t have the greatest sense of direction.

The wonderful thing about a GPS is that it will tell you where you are on the planet. You just look on the screen and you see a picture of where you are in relation to everything else.

This got my new friend and me talking about where he was in his life and how he got there. On a good GPS, there is something that is often called “Tracks” which show the trail that has brought you to your present point. In my life, I use a journal to provide my “Tracks.” I believe that if life is worth living then it’s also worth recording. And by reviewing your “Tracks” you can learn a lot about yourself as well as life in general. My new friend shared all sorts of “Tracks” that had made up his life so far.

Another great feature on a good GPS is something called “Waypoints” which are like targets or destinations that you want to reach. I think of these like goals and subgoals. In my life, I use LifeOrganizer (Click Here for a FREE Demo of LifeOrganizer) to develop my goals and subgoals. It’s a wonderful tool that allows me to make detailed plans for the future. Of course, you don’t need anything very complicated when it comes to establishing goals, just a blank sheet of paper and a pencil along with some time to think about what you want are all that’s needed. However, it’s great to have excellent systems such as LifeOrganizer to make goal setting a serious and ongoing priority. My friend was so sincere about his desire to establish some new “Waypoints” that I decided to set him up with LifeOrganizer to put his plan together.

Our conversation was going so well that I also decided to show my new friend my latest electronic piece of navigation equipment which is my autopilot. It’s certainly fun to steer your course to various waypoints and destinations while boating but sometimes it’s even more fun to let the boat steer itself. Once you’ve programmed in a “Waypoint” or perhaps a series of “Waypoints” which become a complete “Route,” you can literally let the boat steer itself.

I actually believe that this is what many people are doing in their lives — i.e., they have opted to use their autopilot. Unfortunately, for many people, they have never taken the time to chart in a course of where it is they really want to go. Instead, their autopilot system just has them pointed in the general direction that they have been traveling. If they like that direction, then life is good. But what if you want to improve your direction? You need to chart a new course.

Maybe now would be a good time to think about the “Waypoints” and the “Route” you have plugged into your autopilot system. If you are not heading where it is that you really want to go, it’s time to change your course. You received absolutely free at birth the most amazing autopilot system every designed. It’s called the human mind. The only challenge is that most people take it completely for granted.

I promise you that your mind has all the power you will ever need to take you where you want to go. All you have to do is use it properly by programming it with the “Waypoints” that you want to visit. Why not start on a new journey today by programming your mind with a “Route” that you really want to travel?

If you are not now living the life you most want to live, the chances are excellent that your autopilot system needs some attention. Why not take a minute and program in a new course? Feel free to try my programming system which I mentioned a moment ago. It’s called LifeOrganizer, and it may be just what you need to program in a new course for your life.
