HOW TO SET SYSTEMS INSTEAD OF GOALS | a system that will change your life

In this video I share why goals are incomplete and how to set systems instead. If you can get your habits, systems, and then goals in place, you can reach your dreams. If you want to reach your goals, you need to get your systems in order. This has been life-changing for me and I hope this system will change your days, weeks, months, and life as well.

📖 Chunk your year's intentions into quarterly sprints, monthly projects, weekly systems, and daily actions to go from just having good intentions to living an intentional life with the Potential Planner.

Every one says find your purpose. This is the first time someone said here’s how. THANK YOU!

What I love about the Venn diagram is the unexpected result. My typical goal setting always has me focusing on weight loss and writing - goals I haven't been able to commit to for years. But the Venn diagram left me with this: "My life’s work is to help kids who grow up in horrible homes by helping them combat tall poppy syndrome by showing them how to do what they truly want to each day." Needs refining, but it was interesting that this seems more aligned with my job as a teacher (which makes me think I chose the correct career in the first place). Eye-opening!!!

I have always wanted to write a book since I was around 12. In 2025, I want to have my book written. Too many years have passed where I just think and talk about my dreams. I want to write 24 chapters, which may or may not change. Fantastic video! I can seem myself accomplishing my goals more now. Love how you connected each topic and explained the 5 to Strive System (this is a game changer). Never really had a system for my goals tbh, so I guess it makes sense why I hardly accomplish them.

Here's 1 of my goals for 2025:

By the end of Q1, I will be an author with a book by writing, at least two chapters, each week because I want to encourage others to tap into their potential, despite where they are at in life.

Just found you the other day and it's like the universe sent you! Im going to the pdf planner, and im super excited.

[elsh]

This is actually so incredible!

Please turn this into a book that takes readers through the steps 🙏 I would buy a copy for me, one for each of my children, my best friend, and everyone else that I care about in life!!

I have saved this video so I can go through the steps that you lay out, but a book / workbook would be phenomenal!!

Can't wait to get my planner in mail. Should be any day. I can't get enough of your videos!!

My life long goal is to become fluent in Korean! My specific goal for Q1 is to become a beginner learner with a second grade level of Korean by studying lessons/workbooks, listening to podcasts, talking with natives, and watching Kpop/Kdrama videos. I've been wanting to do this so that I can prove to myself that I can achieve goals and to connect with my heritage and family.

Thank you for the video and good luck with your goals too. Just became a subscriber :)

[ninajobe]

Thank you! I’m going to finally launch the podcast I’ve been wanting to start for years

[JoeKueser]

I watched this video after watching another video you made 2 years ago. You have come a long way. The knowledge was there, but you are much more confident and engaging now. Inspiring. Thank you. Keep it up!

I've been searching for someone like you to help me plan my goals for the past year. I was stuck trying to create a framework to connect the concept of SMART goals with habits. You have brought me incredible clarity by systemizing the whole process.

Love & gratitude from india 💛

My goal this year is to move on my own and have a beautiful place :)

[shrutibhatt]

I have done all the exercises you have mentioned here and actually made the whole year's plan by picking 1 out of those 10 things to make it happen. It is really useful dear. Thanks so much for this method. ❤

[rraghavvvv]

Actually helped me know what I really want to zone in on. Thanks

My goal is to selfpublish my first novel in April and my second novel in November.

I love the idea of doing 5 minutes of a tough task the day before to get yourself in motion.

[nashaunnasanders]

Loved this entire video! Planning to read the book and I’ll complete the exercise this evening! I’ll be back at the end of Q1 to share my wins and to hear yours!! All the absolute best to you! ❤

[jazzylia]

mindblown in the first 12 minutes... this is probably the single most helpful exercise I've done!

[oneofthemanyfew]

The way to explain this is very good. You’re doing a really good job.

[jodi-lynn]

I love this so much! Thank you for sharing.

[NatCreary]

Thank you for this video. What if I can’t remember things from my childhood? There are fragments but nothing enough to string an entire thought or feeling.
