Setting goals helps you experience happiness, strive for something greater, and can add to your fulfillment. But setting goals can also make you miserable, fill you with darkness, and sabotage your life. 

Why does this happen? 

When you set goals that are too big, you lose sight of all the small joys in your life right now. The more overwhelming your goals are, the more you feel like a failure. And even if you reach your goals, you realize you’re still not happy. Because reaching your goals makes you happy for 90 seconds. That’s it.

The solution? 

Using goals as your “north star.” They help guide your actions, but you don't have to sacrifice your happiness in the moment. 

In this episode, you’ll discover a new approach to setting goals that boosts your happiness and likelihood you’ll achieve them.
