In sport, our goals were handed to us.
After the jersey, it’s an open field.

Championships. Rival week. Conference play.
The calendar told us what mattered.

After sports, the feed tries to do that job.
That’s how we end up chasing borrowed goals.

Last year I sat with a blank page and wrote five goals.
Three came from the scroll.
Two were mine.

I ran the athlete test and cut the noise.

Achievable.
Can I train into this with daily reps and weekly milestones?

Aligned.
Does this point where I actually want to go, not what social media says I should do?

Worth the cost.
Am I willing to pay the price (time, energy, trade-offs) for the season it’ll take?

Keep the goals that pass.
Delete the ones that don’t.

Plant the Flag (1 line).
Describe the future you’re building. Put it where you see it daily.

Price Tag (5 minutes).
Write the weekly costs you’ll pay like sleep, screen time, social, comfort. Sign it.

Do-Before-Noon rep.
One rep you can’t dodge for your top goal. Done by lunch.

Night Audit (3 lines).
Win / Lesson / Tomorrow’s first rep.

New Scoreboard.
Pen marks only: Body / Skills / Relationships. When you track it, the feedback doesn’t lie.

Mute what confuses your aim for seven days.
Watch how quiet turns into speed.

Set goals you can train into.
Set goals that are truly yours.
Pay the price on purpose.

Master Your Next Season.
