Setting Goals With Purpose: How to Design a Life You Actually Want

Priorities change but values don’t. And you can be lost without the proper goal…do you agree? If you feel that your personal and professional life need some alignment, you’re in the right place! Tamara Loring and Dr. Mike Smith discuss how setting goals with purpose can help you design your personal life and career. Tune in to hear about what setting goals helps you with from a psychological standpoint, the problem with mixing up a goal and a vehicle toward the goal, and the mindset needed to align your personal and professional life and goals as much as possible. ● Often, you’ll find yourself feeling a lack of fulfillment, accomplishment, and purpose, despite having hit your professional goals. ● Thinking that the job is the dream or that the dream is the job is something many people can’t quite get… ● Remember this: if your goals hit your primary aim in life, you’ll know that everything else will be a vehicle to help you accomplish that. ● From a psychological standpoint, having goals gives you direction and motivation. ● For Dr. Mike, “priorities change but our values don’t.” http://YourCareerRevolution.com http://CareerCompassShow.com/3 Tamara Loring - https://tloring.esourcecoach.com/meet...
