Write down your goals. You may not actually know what they are unless you can write them down - it's harder than you think.

I think a little philosophical quote is appropriate here:

"One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. Which road do I take? she asked. Where do you want to go? was his response. I don't know, Alice answered. Then, said the cat, it doesn't matter."
