21 Prompts to Clarify and Achieve Your Life Goals

Purpose, Passion, Profit

Today's episode is a bit different from our usual format. As I look ahead to the next year of our Mastermind program, it's crucial to focus on setting and achieving our life goals. To help you with this process, I've compiled a list of 21 insightful questions that will guide you in setting extraordinary, meaningful goals aligned with your values and vision. Grab a pen and paper, and get ready to do a deep dive.

Let's set the right goals for the life you truly want to lead.

Tune in, take notes, and let's get started on this transformative journey!

21 Questions:

1. What is it that you really, REALLY want? Dig deep…
2. What is the SPECIFIC outcome you're looking for?
3. What is the PAIN for you of NOT achieving your goal?
4. Is this goal in line with your life vision/overall life-plan? (Don't know - what does your gut tell you?)
5. Is this goal in line with your values? (Unsure? Ask yourself what’s REALLY important to you in life - will this goal help you achieve more of that?)
6. Are the goals something YOU truly want, or are they something you think you SHOULD have or SHOULD be doing?(Tip: If it is a SHOULD, it may be someone else's dream…)
7. When you think about your goal does it give you a sense of deep contentment or 'rightness', happiness and/or excitement? (If so, these are good signs that it’s a healthy goal.)
8. If you could have the goal RIGHT NOW – would you take it? (If not, why not? What issues are there?)
9. How does this goal fit into your life/lifestyle? (Time/effort/commitments/who else might be impacted?)
10. Can YOU start & maintain this goal/outcome? (ie. Do you have complete control over achieving it?)
11. How will making this change affect other aspects of your life? (ie. What else might you need to deal with?)
12. What's good about your CURRENT SITUATION? (ie. What's the benefit of staying right where you are?) Then ask, how can I keep those good aspects while STILL making this change?
13. WHAT might you have to give up/stop doing to achieve this goal? (Essentially, what’s the price of making this change – and are you willing to pay it?)
14. If there was something important around achieving this goal (to help you succeed, or that could get in the way) that you haven't mentioned yet, what would it be?
15. WHO will you have to BE to achieve this goal?
16. Is your goal the right size to be working on?
17. Too big? Break down into smaller goals. Too small? Fit into a larger goal.
18. What would be the MINIMUM/Super-Easy level of goal to achieve?
19. What would be your TARGET level of goal to achieve?
20. What would be your EXTRAORDINARY level of goal to achieve?
