Let’s be honest—most people suck at setting goals. We make resolutions in January, and by February they’re already dead.

Why? Because we set the wrong goals, in the wrong way.

In this episode of Mork Unfiltered, I break down what I’ve learned about goal setting from years of coaching leaders, teams, and writing my book Step Back and Leap. I’ll share why most people fail, and more importantly, how you can build goals that last.

Here’s what I cover:

• The real reason most people give up on goals
• How to set goals that align with your values and identity
• Why goals build confidence, growth, and resilience
• How to use the SMART framework without overcomplicating things
• Practical tools to track progress and stay accountable

This isn’t theory. It’s the same stuff I use with executives and teams around the world—and it works.

If you’ve ever struggled to follow through, listen in. This episode will give you the tools to finally make your goals stick.

If this episode moved you or gave you a different lens on adversity and growth, I want to invite you to go deeper.

I wrote Step Back and Leap for people exactly like us. People building through chaos. People trying to find meaning inside uncertainty. People choosing purpose over comfort. You can get it here:

And if you want practical tools you can use today to strengthen your resilience, I created a short, tactical guide you can download immediately. It’s called The Mork Guide to Resilience and it is designed to help you build inner strength, recover faster, and lead from a grounded place:

Because sometimes the most powerful leaps forward start with stepping back, grounding yourself, and reconnecting to why you are here in the first place.
