Set meaningful goals

Tasks are not goals. When you mix them together, you're constantly switching the context and eventually will lose the momentum. When you shift your focus to the goals, you get a clearer picture of your desired destination. After that, you can start implementing your plan and work on the actual tasks.

Establishing goals that resonate on a personal level creates a powerful motivator that drives your actions and decisions. The best way to set goals is to start with the biggest desires and dreams, further breaking them down into yearly and monthly goals. This structure will give you clarity on what's required on a daily basis — what habits and routines will support the higher goals. The goals themselves will serve as a compass, but you still retain full freedom of how you want to navigate your path.

Meaningful goals will always support you when things go south and reconnect you with your sense of purpose. They serve as a compass, helping you prioritize what you spend your energy for.
