You will be able to name what matters to you, tell your own expectations from other people’s, and choose a next meaningful direction even when you feel lost.

Lessons

• What directing your own life means — Steering on purpose, instead of only reacting to whatever arrives next. (7 min)
• Values vs goals — A goal can be finished. A value is a direction you keep walking in. (7 min)
• What actually matters to you — Needs, wants and priorities — and how to tell them apart when they all feel urgent. (8 min)
• Whose expectations are these? — Some of what you want is yours. Some was handed to you. Both deserve a look. (7 min)
• Finding direction when you feel lost — You don’t need a complete map to choose the next meaningful direction. (8 min)
• Choosing between paths — and changing course — How to choose when several paths are good, and how to change direction without calling it failure. (8 min)
