Turn Your Dreams Into Reality

Your planner gives you the pages. This guide walks you through the thinking behind them, the same framework Emily and I use every year.

  • The Six Fs: finances, family, friends, faith, fitness and freedom (the one most people forget)
  • SMARTER goals, which add Exciting and Risky to the usual SMART
  • Worksheets that turn the big picture into no more than three goals at a time
  • Why your goals don't have to match your spouse's, and other things we learned the hard way
