7 Ways to Crush Your Goals:

1)  Input-based goals

Focus on what you need to do to get the results you want.

If you want to gain 10 pounds of muscle, you need to lift weights.

Goal: lift weights for 30 min 3x per week

2) Affirmation-based goals

Describe yourself using the trait you hope to cultivate.

If your goal is to save more money, write "I am wealthy".

Think about what wealthy people do.

S - specific

A - actionable

R - realistic

T - time-bound

Goal: post on Twitter 2x per day for 1 year

4) OKRs

OKRs stands for objectives and key results.

Let's say you want to grow your network to 100 people.

Objective: grow network to 100 people

Key Result: do 2 coffee chats per week and follow up the next day

5) One word goals

Choose one word that represents your goal.

If you want to become more calm, your word could be "meditate".

Set annual, monthly, and weekly goals.

Annual goal: get a 20% raise at work

Monthly goal: complete 1 strong project

Weekly goal: update manager with progress
