Are your goals hurting or helping you?
<p>If you’re on the path to self-improvement, these five questions will help make sure that your 2023 goals put you on the best track:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Are your goals too vague or too concrete?</strong></li>
<li><strong>Are you putting your outcome goals first?</strong></li>
<li><strong>Are you forgetting to adjust the defaults?</strong></li>
<li><strong>Are you framing your goals wisely?</strong></li>

<h1><strong>Are your goals too vague or too concrete?</strong></h1>
<p>I’ve seen a plenty of guides that tell you that vague goals set you up for failure, but there’s a nuance to watch out for. Sometimes, your true goals <em>really are</em> vague.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>It’s too easy to deprioritize a vague goal.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>What the guides are right about is that it’s too easy to deprioritize a vague goal in your daily routine. Sure, you want to “be healthy” or “look your best” or “feel better” but if there’s no concrete action plan and no measurable progress associated with those resolutions, then it’s too easy to put off doing anything about them until a “later” that never comes.</p>
