Goals & Dreams

Goals and Dreams

Me and my husband are on weekend marriage for the past 14 months. I mean he lives in Florida and I live in Georgia, so we both meet only on weekends. But with grace of god, we have only 5 ½ hrs driving distance between our places. He comes more often to Georgia than me.. So every Sunday we talk for about 3 hrs while either of us is driving back. So this weekend is the second last week of driving. He is moving to Georgia on October 27th 2012. So finally we are going to be living like a proper married couple. But that’s another topic to talk… 
So today while he was driving we were talking about what we want to do… We both have written our goals for next 6 months. We both have different goals but our ultimate aim is to be Happy and be always available for each other. 
Let me give you a quick peep of our goal..
My Goals are as follows:
• My own Home (Which I am achieving it right now… So Happy)
• Be Healthy & Fit
• Start a business by July 2013
• Send Vidaths Mom and Dad on a tour to America.
• Have good Bank Balance. Not too much but enough that my family never struggles.
• Most Importantly BE HAPPY & ALWAYS BE POSITIVE

Vidaths Goal:
• Own his Clinic
• Have a good investment in India
• Have enough equity in the house we own

We both are very clear that we do not want to make too much money… We want to be Happy and content with our life., Our philosophy is that its one life; so no stress and be happy.

So my husband wants to move to India eventually. So we were both talking that we do not want to move to some big city like Mumbai or Ahmedabad but instead to a mid city like Baroda (that’s his Hometown). I have been born and brought up in Mumbai and have seen that it’s a very hectic life out there, so I agreed with him that we should move to Baroda if ever we move to India. So we thought that for the next five years we will work hard and save some money…I am a little shopaholic.. My parents always advise me, stop spending and start saving. I have saved a few but I spend also .. So the first thing we decided that we are going to save a fix amount every month. He has to put a fix amount and I have to put a fix amount in our Savings Account starting January 1st 2013. Hey that’s our resolution for 2013. And whatever we save in that account we will invest in India. We will open up few small businesses in India so that when we move we have some base ready for us. Secondly we decided that my husband will open up his clinic in Georgia in next 4 months. He is a Physical Therapist and has managed the clinic while he was in Florida. He always wanted to open his clinic and he should pursue his dream now. We will both work hard and achieve this. We want to have atleast 2-3 clinic of his. His idea of Clinic is like a Spa cum Fitness cum Physical Therapy clinic. 
So this Sunday talk was quite productive and hope that we both achieve our goals and fulfill our dreams.
