INSIGHT

Themes Over Goals

  • Yearly themes shape identity and decision-making more flexibly than specific SMART goals.
  • Themes prevent discarding progress tied to arbitrary numeric targets and guide daily choices.
ADVICE

Steer With Themes, Not Targets

  • Do use broad themes like "positivity" to steer many small decisions rather than chase single outcomes.
  • Repeat small alternative choices (habits) to produce big cumulative change.
ANECDOTE

Words That Shaped A Year

  • Rachel used the words "freedom" and "fulness" last year to settle into who she is and focus on God-given gifts.
  • Those words produced emotional clarity and guided her choices throughout the year.
