A radar is used to pick up on and locate things around a certain area. Things to keep an eye on or be aware of.
As individuals, we each have a radar. It’s those things in our lives that we’re thinking on, considering, looking into, or otherwise curious about. It doesn’t necessarily have to be anything deep or profound, but just something that you’re kicking around on your radar.
Here are some things on my radar right now that I’m thinking about…
- What’s the next step? – I love what I do, but I’m always looking for the next challenge. What’s the next mountain to climb?
- Will my garden work? – I find myself checking out there everyday. I can’t wait to eat something from the garden…hopefully that’s fully ripe.
- Will the class of ‘Saved By The Bell’ reunite for Jimmy Fallon? – I grew up on Saved By The Bell, so this would be a monumental moment in my life.
- Are my talks really making an impact? – If students laugh and have a good time when I speak, that’s great, but if it doesn’t cause them to think or take action, am I being effective?
- Am I doing the right things? – Doing work just for the sake of work is foolish. I want to be focused on the right things.
- What am I missing? - What am I not doing that I should be doing?
- Am I being a good husband/father? – My wife and daughters mean everything to me, so I need to make sure my actions reflect that.
What’s on your radar?
