Agreed on all points, and I'd like to add some numbers that worked for me - keep about 5-10 long-term objectives. Make one of them taking care of your health (exercise, nutrition), one taking care of your mental health (mostly work/rest/socialize balance), and invest in your knowledge/skills. Currently, I have 5 more (finish project #1, #2, #3, make company profitable, move out of country).

Additional point I'd like to make is - know thyself. You simply cannot set goals on some wishful thinking and other randomnesses. While glass of wine per day is ok, you might better be off without any, or you might need a bottle of wine a day to manage your cholesterol level (stretching the metaphore).

Also, props for planning out the next day in evening - makes sleep and the start of next day so much more pleasurable experience.
