The one real goal Baby Boomers should aim for

Jeff,

And any goal less than that is low-balling yourself. Amazingly, you never hear anyone say out loud, “I want to be mediocre in life and view life as a drudgery.” Yet, in reality, that is what many do.

I used to say, “I can’t be that way – I am a type-A personality” or “I can’t be that way – it is my Christian work ethic I was brought up in” or something to explain why I don’t settle for giving my best in life. But the bottom line is simple – every day, it is still a choice, not something out of my control. I can either choose to do my best or choose to just do the bare minimum. And I know it is a choice, because sometimes I fail.
