Yes! I do better with goals. I do have a goal of staying as active and fit as possible in my later years. But I recently took up kayaking and I love it so much! It is motivating me to increase my strength and fitness. Because, as I approach 60, I want to continue to be able to get my kayak on my car rooftop. And I really need to work on my upper body strength, so that if I roll over in my kayak, I'll be able to get myself back on it. Oh, and I need to practice swimming. So yes, having a goal (surviving a capsize!) is motivating me.
