Setting Goals That Matter
Turn your mission into reality by setting meaningful, realistic goals. These shouldn't be easy targets - aim high enough to excite and motivate you!
Focus on identifying your Wildly Important Goals (WIGs) - the goals that, if achieved, make everything else matter less. Don't let Pretty Important Goals (PIGs) distract you from your WIGs. Write goals in a "From X to Y by When" format, identify key activities needed, track your progress, and hold yourself accountable weekly.
College is the perfect time to explore career options that align with your mission. Work can be viewed in three ways: as a job (assigned tasks), a career (opportunity for advancement), or a calling (meaningful purpose). Your aim should be finding a calling - work that connects to something greater than yourself.
💡 Goal-Setting Power Move: Ask yourself: "Which of my goals must be achieved, or nothing else I achieve will really matter much?" This question reveals your true priorities.
