You have the power to enhance the quality of your life and maintain it at a high level. The way you do this—the only way you can do this—is through the decisions that you face and the alternatives that you decide to implement for those decisions. Your all-encompassing life objective is to maximize your quality of life. To pursue a high quality of life, you must define what the concept of “quality of life&”means for you. This is done by specifying your life objectives. Like a vehicle navigation system that guides your travels on roads, your life objectives are your life navigation system for guiding your decisions through life, so that you live the life that you want. Creating your life objectives is conceptually the same as defining and clarifying your objectives for an important decision. In practice, the process is both more difficult and more important. Thus, specific procedures to identify and organize your life objectives are presented. Once you know and understand your life objectives, they nudge your decision-making to be more creative, more consistent, and better, as well as reducing anxiety and the time required to make good decisions.
