If you look at your bigger dream, where do you want to be in 2, 5 or even 10 years time. Then you can back track to what your yearly goals are to achieving those big picture dreams, then break these down into more achievable monthly goals.
Your daily to do list should naturally include things that need doing like to keep the house running, activities for the kids, appointments, work commitments, social or activities etc. Adding a priority three to your list will motivate you to complete what you feel are a priority and can even include steps to completing your monthly goals towards the big picture dream.
