When we set goals, we think about the person we want to be rather than who we actually are. We become tad delusional and think that on January 1st we will become a totally different person with a totally different lifestyle and habits. But then reality sets in and we revert back to our ‘old’ behaviors, doing what feels natural and comfortable to us.

Achievement-oriented goals can feel motivating, but the satisfaction they bring is often brief. Process-oriented goals invite a different relationship with your life — one where meaning, fulfillment, and self-trust are built while you’re in the process, not postponed until the finish line.

Most goals fail because they’re really just outcomes. Discover a gentler, more effective way to set goals rooted in action, process, and self-trust.
