043: How to Set Goals That Will Actually Change Your Life

Listen Later

Today we’re talking about goal setting - but not the traditional goals you might be used to. Over the last year, I’ve changed my own approach to setting goals, and these goals have absolutely changed my life.

Sometimes we get so caught up in the big picture long-term goals that we neglect the short-term changes that can make a huge impact. In this episode, I’m explaining my new approach and how you can apply it to your 2022 goals! WARNING: Major f-bombs ahead in this episode because this topic fires me up!! Get your hearts ready!

3 key takeaways about goal setting:

  • We feel like we have to accomplish certain goals that we are hearing from external sources. Instead, look internally at your personal experience and set your goals according to that.
  • Journaling can help you dig deep and get to the root of your goals. It can be useful for pulling back layers of history that led to certain behaviors or for understanding what accomplishing a goal means to you.
  • Look for resources that can guide you through accomplishing the goals you’ve set. This is especially important for goals you might not have the background knowledge on, such as nutrition or the technical side of a new hobby. These resources can look like books, podcasts, or coaching.

    • Welcome to the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins (that’s me!). I work in corporate sales by day and am a personal development guru and Life Coach by night. My goal in this podcast is to share valuable and actionable tips on what I call the “Core Four” - mindfulness, movement, habits, and growth - so you can build a life that feels true to you. I will be interviewing people who have had a “wake up call” that their good-on-paper life wasn’t lighting them up, and what they did to change that. Join us every week for a new episode of the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins!
