Louis Massaro breaks down goal-setting into three parts: know where you are now, decide where you want to go, and build the skills to get there. He warns against climbing the wrong ladder and pushes you to reflect on what actually matters.

Let's say you're here and where you want to go from where you're at now to where you want to be. Right? All it is, is some capabilities, some things you need to learn. You know, I want to be a great father, great husband. There's books I've read, there's people I've gone and seen, there's coaches that I've gotten. Right. You develop the capabilities that you need to get you to where you want to be. But if you don't, if you're not honest about where you're at and you don't know where you want to go, you can't steer the ship. There's nothing worse than putting your time and energy and effort into climbing and hustling to realize you had the ladder on the wrong wall the whole time or you were climbing the wrong mountain and now you got to come back down and do it all over again to go in another direction. Allow yourself to open up these next few days and think about what you really want in your life.
