Key Takeaways:
- You should set a goal if you want your life to go in a certain direction. If you are happy to go with the flow and see where you end up, don't set a goal!
- Start with "why". Why do you even want to set a goal? What are you pulled towards? What do you want to leave behind?
- Frame your goal in a positive, outcome focused way.
- Give yourself a deadline. If this is an area you have not had much progress with, then set a timescale for 90-100 days. If you have had some progress in this area before, then aim for something juicier. What can you accomplish in up to 12 months?
- Do a final checklist, make sure your goal is SMART. Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time based.
