Comments on: Should Emotional Goals Take Priority Over Physical Goals? http://www.jamesrick.com/emotional-goals-should-take-priority-over-physical-goals/ Live Your Full Potential Sun, 18 Jul 2010 14:39:16 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: James Rick http://www.jamesrick.com/emotional-goals-should-take-priority-over-physical-goals/comment-page-1/#comment-63564 James Rick Fri, 05 Jun 2009 19:10:28 +0000 http://jamesrick.com/blog/?p=117#comment-63564 Jakub -- In the context you're suggesting that physical goals can trigger emotional / state changes I agree they should take priority. Exercise, drinking plenty of water, eating salad, sunshine, etc. they can all affect emotions for the better (or worse) if not followed. What I meant here was whether to allow physical / tangible goals to drive us more than fulfillment. (Achievement 'stuff' rather than achieving emotional fulfillment.)

Physical goals are achiavable and measurable. Emotional goals are not measurable so well. And a real goal is measurable. Otherwise it is not a goal but a wish. Also emotional and physical are often combined. A friend of mine has a T-shirt "train hard feel good". Good combination. Hard physical exercise helps to get out hormons (endorphines to name just one) which helps person to feel good. So to me a good physical goal like "One hour running three times a week" is a great physical goal having an affect into emotional part of life. I strongly disagree.

Too many people think that if they have a bigger house or a bigger bust, or a smaller nose, nicer clothes then the emotional goal will follow. If they really think about what they want emotionally they will see the physical goals change. I agree.
