The good news is this is also the most important day of this challenge. The work you'll do today will influence every area of your life for the rest of your life. Mastering goals is simple. Anyone can do that. And plenty of people do, only to find they've arrived but feel lost, lonely, deeply dissatisfied, and living a life devoid of balance. What Day 1 of the Push Plan teaches you to do is identify your goals. That takes more thought, more reflection, more work. But don't stress. I'm here to lead you through the process, and you won't believe how much more focused and energized you'll feel once it's done! Lessons from a Toddler's Toy We all know the Shape-O Toy--that bright red, blue, and yellow plastic ball that teaches little kids their shapes. Either we had one or we got one for our kids. The Shape-O ball comes with 10 plastic shape pieces--a star, a circle, a triangle, and so on--that the child pushes through openings in the ball that are the same shape as the pieces. The toddlers select a piece and then press it against the opening they believe the piece will fit through. No matter how much they push and turn the shape, the star piece won't fit through the circle hole, right? The square piece won't fit into the opening made for a triangle. And so on--the pieces simply won't "fit" until they're pressed against the right opening in the ball. But by the time you're 3, you've figured out you can cheat! Pull on the ball's yellow handles, and the ball splits in half, allowing you to shove anything you want into the center. Unfortunately, that's how most people decide if a goal or an opportunity, or even a mate, is a good fit. They make it fit. But alas, sometimes they "cheat"--and who they're cheating is themselves! Wouldn't it be great if you had a simple tool, like a Shape-O ball, to know if something was going to be the right fit (she asked excitedly, knowing there is such a tool!). The first step in reaching your goals is setting ones that are a good fit. Whether you focus on health and fitness, business, marriage, faith, or parenting, before you set goals, you need to have a better system of identifying which ones will fit. Call them your defining values, your principles, call 'em what you want, but for our purposes we're going to call them your "life priorities." So many people set and achieve goals only to find they're no happier than when they started. That's because most people never take the time to sit down and figure out who they are and what's really important. In other words, they never create those shapes on the outside of a Shape-O ball, so they have nothing to press against. Intrinsic Priorities I define intrinsic priorities as areas of critical importance so ingrained into who you are that you really need no accountability to honor their place. In other words, these intrinsic priorities don't even need to go on your life priorities list. You honor them naturally. For example, you might be surprised to know that health and fitness don't go on my formal life priorities list. My hope is that health and fitness at some point in your near future become intrinsic priorities. I did this priorities exercise with a small group of business professionals, many of whom also happen to be devout Christia
