How do you feel about setting goals?

I?ve heard people say they feel energized, depressed, confused, terrified, pumped, ambivalent, lost...or all of the above. Here?s what I?ve realized: Our relationship to success is inside-out. When we make our New Year?s resolutions, bucket lists, big plans, or weekly to-dos, we?re hoping that when we "arrive" we?ll be fulfilled. Our hearts will swell as we cross the finish line, and then we can finally relax and savor our happiness. Except more often than not, that doesn?t happen.

And that?s where the Desire Map process starts. In The Desire Map Experience, I?ll share a process that you?ll use to transform the way you relate to every aspect of your life. It?s not about learning a new time-budgeting method, filling out a questionnaire, or making another list to stick on your fridge. Instead, you?ll get crystal clear about how you want to feel about everything you do. The Desire Map is holistic life planning. Here?s how it works:

• We?ll uncover your core desired feelings - they?ll be your new North Star for living a soul-centered life
• You?ll learn how to identify expectations you?ve picked up from your parents, the Joneses, the media,...
